I have French-made Cairn's 4808A amplifier (about 2K USD new) and two monoblocks power amps K1 driving SF Cremona Auditors. SF speakers are so easy to drive that you do not need high-budget electronics to get the best out of them. Before I got the K1s, only the 4808A was enough to get crispy and musical sounds out of the SF. All depends on how large your room is.
Good listening.
