How Much Power: Revel Salon 2's


OK. Right now I'm running some Revel Salon 2's with a Bryston 4bsst amp (300w). It seems to me they need more power. Right now I'm on a budget (building a listening room), but I'd like to get more out of these speakers. Suggestions? Should I buy another Bryston and bi-amp? Sell the Bryston and go with monoblocks? Would a Krell 402 e offer enough "bang"?

There's always a trade-off, but I'd like suggestions on how to get the most bang for my buck. One other thing - I don't really want to be hauling around a 200lb amp so two monoblocks or bi-amping might be a better alternative for me.

Thanks

I am using Krell 402e thru a BAT REX preamp. I think the speakers sound great, very musical. I sense no need for more power; I listen to all kinds of music and sometimes at high volume levels. The "e" upgrade on the Krell was a huge sonic improvement; highly recommended. I toy with the idea of monobloc amps but it would not work well in my listening room.
