Best Amp for Revel F30

I currently own a Wadia 860x, Revel F30 Performas and leastly and lastly a B&K 4420 Reference Amplifier. I run the Wadia directly into the B&K with a pair of balanced Alph Goertz Silver XLRs. 8TC BiWire to the speakers. My room size is 12 wide by 17 long by 9 high. I listen to a lot of different kinds of music but really enjoy full scale symphonic and female cocalists. Does anyone have any experience with the F30s and a premium amplifier? I'm considering a Mark Levinson 334 but don't know if this is a good combo or if it is enough power for these speakers. I also have considered the Plinius 102. Can anyone suggest reasons for one of these or perhaps something even better with these speakers?

I ran my F30s, first with a Levinson 332(200wpc), and then with two 332s, in a biamped configuration. I was very happy with this combo. The amps and speakers matched up perfectly.
I have found the same with my Revel Ultima Studios and my Levinson 33H monoblocks.
I have noticed a couple of 332s, lately, right here on Audiogon.
I found that the 332 had more than enough power for the F30s.
Just depends on your budget, I suppose.
Good luck, and have fun.
Mike
