Martin Logan Aeons help?

Has anyone heard anything about these speakers? I have tried to find reviews online and there just aren't any (search via google). I am trying to make a pretty tough decision based on the review and maybe your help as well. I own a pair that are about a year old and I think they have really good sound. However, I don't know if I can afford to keep them given that I have heard that they are expensive to match to both components and other speakers (for both home theater and stereo use). My current receive is pretty weak for this speaker (Denon AVR-3300) and I am thinking of upgrading, but it seems like everything is around 2-5k for something that will do them justice. Any thoughts here or something that I may be missing? I listen to blues, rock, and some jazz. I have been thinking of selling them and getting some B&W CDM9NTs (cheaper to match with other speakers) or maybe the Revel F30s. Any thoughts or comments would be very appreciated!!

Agree with the above posts: TUBES with Martin Logan's are a must. The improvement was dramatic for me.... I have the model that was replaced by the Aeon's (the Aerius i), and 80 watts of tube power was plenty.

The VTL IT85 is an awesome integrated tube amp, with 80 wpc, the ability to later be biamped to another VTL ST85 (so you can double the power), has a pre-out, and a processor-in... this is a very versatile and awesome sounding integrated, especially if you're looking to use it for home theatre.
