I have not heard this NAD, but read it is still highly regarded. Just wondering why you are looking at 225wpc for a 99db speaker? My Forte IIs play loud with 12wpc, and absolutely crank with 30wpc.
You have a lot of options with a speaker that efficient.
What kind of amplifier are you using with the fortes are you using tubes or solid state or what tube amp would you recommend since you own klipsch yourself?
The NAD S200 is a wonderful amp but as mentioned, you really don't "need" 225w/ch to drive a pair of HIII's to crazy levels. If you are not quite ready for tubes but still want a "warmish" sounding amp(mosfet) that will mate very well with Klipsch Heritage, look for a lower power(125w to 140W) B&K like the Reference 125.2 or the ST2140. Both are very nice sounding amps with Heresy's and are reasonably priced on the used market.

Any of these NAD integrateds will sound great(IMO) with the Klipsch Heresy's also.
