Mike, I don't know what you settled with on the amp question but thought I would throw my two cents worth. I have the SC-III's with the Dunlavy DAL cables coming out of a NAD C-370 and they sound fantastic. I have the Sony DVP-S9000-ES SACD/DVD, along with a VPI TT, old cassette deck and reel to reel. The NAD C-370 has impressed many of my friends with much higher quality and priced systems, which also speaks well of the Dunlavy's. My room is 30' by 16' with the speakers about 15' apart and my sweet spot is about 13'from the III's. Sit back and enjoy the music, I know that I am.
