Mezzrow, I'm using a Simaudio Moon I-5 integrated with the Devores. It's rated at 70 watts into 8 ohms and drives them very easily.
Speaker suggestions
Looking for speaker suggesestions. My listening area is roughly 12' by 15'. Speakers are on the long wall on either side of a wall unit, abut 10' apart. Couch is about 10' from the speakers. I am using 140wpc solid state amp. Music tastes are broad, lots of jazz, female vocals, reggae,R&B, R&R.
The problem I have is that I can't place the speakers more than about 2' from the wall without really intruding into the living space (and annoying my wife). So that rules out many, if not all, rear-ported speakers. I am currently using a pair of Vienna Acoustics Beethovens, which I think sound fantastic-most of the time. However, I find the bass "boomy" on a lot of music, and I have come to the conclusion that the problem is that the speakers are too close to the wall. They may also simply be too big for the space.
I am looking in the 3K range and have looked at Silverline, Joseph Audio, Gershman and some others. Any thoughts?
