Amps for Maxx 2's

My audiphile friends are certain that my 140W Yamaha receiver will NOT do it w/ the Wilsons. Looking used. Recommendations for amp, pre-amp, source? Thanks

They will sound good with moderate power but stellar with big power. I drive mine with a Krell FPB 600c and plan a move to Spectral DMA 360's this year.
