Apogee Diva Ribbon Speakers - I need an amp

I recently moved to a new home and the former owner left his audio and video equipment. As a result, I now have a pair of Apogee Diva Ribbon speakers which are (were) powered by a pair of Krell Audio Standard 2 (KAS2) amps. This was great until one of the Krell amps died. Now I need to replace the amp.

This may be a bizarre question but does anyone have suggestions for a reasonably priced amp that can power these speakers 'well'. I understand that the word 'well' is subjective but I need a stereo amp with balanced inputs that won't break the bank - but can handle these beasts.

Thanks!

I use a McCormack DNA 500 amp with my Duetta Sig's, it's a powerhouse but he has other models that will work just as well. Try one of his models that will give you at least 200W into your speaker load and you should be just fine. If you want some tube bloom then try a nice tube pre feeding it.

Enjoy,
Bob
