Power suggestion?

I have recently acquired some OMD-15's from a member and am considering upgrading my power. I am currently Bi-Amping them through an ONKYO receiver and thus far the sound incredible to my ear.

What might be a smart upgrade power wise?

Iv'e looked at a few and just don't know a lot about amps?

You might want to re-post your question with Mirage OMD-15 in the title. There is a another Goner here, Johnnyb53, who owns those speakers, but on the new Audiogon you can't directly email another member. I have the OMD-28's but my amp (Bryston 14 BSST) is overkill for your 15's.

If you say they sound incredible with what you have, I agree with the other fellow, enjoy!. Incredible is pretty hard to beat. I'm still trying to get the top of the line OMD's to sound incredible.

Mbovaird the OMD 28's require lots of current. I'm not confident that a tube amp will deliver unless you plan to spend quite a bit for one.

With my 28s I'm using a Bryston 14BSST and Classe CP35 preamp. I'm still trying out preamps. Whatever you do regarding an amp, make sure it produces plenty of current.

I'd love to try the CP-800, but I won't spend that much for a preamp unless I hit the lottery.
