Hi,
I heard these at a local dealer. I was very impressed, esp. considering their size. Very detailed, wide soundstage, impressive dynamics for their size and great vocals. Still, they are not going to give as much LF information as the de Capos, which are quite exceptional in that regard for a mid-size bookshelf speaker. The dealer also had the Carolina Audio and Cain & Cain speakers, although I only listened to the Dulcets and Carolina Audio bookshelf speakers that day. Both are very nice, but in the setup he had that day I preferred the Dulcet. We listened w/ a 25 or 30 watt single ended Antique sound amp (one of their higher end amps, not the integrated amps) and it was plenty of power in a moderately large room. Still, they are not as efficient as the de capo, and the dealer said he preferred the Cain & Cains w/ lower powered (3-5 w) amps. So, I don't know if your amp would be enough power for these, though it should be sufficient for de Capos.
TLH
