Amp advice for large great room

Hello all,
My wife and I will be moving out West and bought a home with a 21 x 17 great room with vaulted ceilings. Though my wife is not an audiophile, she asked me if our stereo would be up to the task of filling this room with sound. Like any good husband, I told her that I think we'll need a big amp.

I currently have a (mid-fi at best) Rotel 120 watt amp. I'd love to get some nice Krell, Pass Labs or Levinson monoblocks, but doubt the wife will approve a blank check. I need it to drive a pair of Revel F30 speakers. Does anyone have recommendations at the following budget limits ($2k, $3k, $5k in case the wife feels generous)?

My source is a Rotel cdp, though I'm saving up for a used Wadia or Levinson.

Thanks in advance for all replies.

Thanks for the prompt responses. Kenscollick, I've read your thread on your system, and it sounds absolutely perfect! Congratulations on such a sweet system.

I will definitely look into some older used equipment like the Levinson monoblocks. Thanks for the replies.
