As I said that speaker deserves a great amp. For now do yourself a favor and get a value priced tube amp, something like a Cary Rocket 88 or a C-J MV60. If you search this site you will find one or both in your price range. Forget about HK or JBL amps, trust me. These great speakers deserve good amplification and with those specs they're crying out for tubes. Try it.
