Don't know your speaker's specs, your listening tastes or room size, but the Clones 25i is the best amplification I've ever owned and probably the most natural and non-HiFi sounding amp I've heard at ANY price. If you like room shaking bass and a lot of zip and zap, get any 200 watt, generic, run of the mill amp. They pretty much all give the same sensation: make u feel as though you're listening to a stereo system.
