Speaker for my Ampzilla Amp and Pre-Amp

I'm looking a newer speaker for my totally rebuilt Ampzilla (250 RMS). I'm currently using it on a pair of Carver Amazing or a pair of Linn Kellidhs> (I know thats night and day).

The music I listen the most of the time is 70's to 80's classic rock.

That I'm looking at are the Revel F52s or Sonus Faber.
the problem is there is no place in the forth largest city to hear any speakers.

Any other ideas? room is 12x16 and budget used is 2000-4000.

For that kind of music, I would check out the Tekton
Pendragon. I think the guy that makes them is a drummer, so
I'm sure they'll have a lot of impact, which I assume is what
you're looking for. If you can cough up a few more bucks, I
would look into a Wilson Sophia. You can pick up the older
models at good prices used and they're good at louder volumes.
There's a pair up now for $5200.

I'm assuming you're in the US, you mean Houston doesn't have any places to audition speakers? I'm surprised.

With that amp's power, I'm thinking you could drive a PBN/Montana in your price range, or a PSB Stratus Gold, both of which should sounds great with your music selection.
