The speaker is not the biggest problem, but the lack of a roomacoustic system in your is. You first have to know which speaker you want to buy. After this you look for an amp which fitts best with your speakers and room.

Samsung F8500 and Panasonic vt/zt60. I bought the F8500 myself. You can read it here on audiogon why? XT32 makes the difference. But I have to admit I measure at a totally different way than Audyssey does. They way I keep for myself. It had become...

Amplification to B&W 800 Diamond
Pass Labs X600.5 is a very good match. I adviced it to a client of mine. He is very happy with it. It makes the low freq. a lot more powerfull. Speed is also important for the 800D. After the 800S I also thought about the 800D. But I stopped cause...

Does Avalon speakers have a house sound?
I owned the Pass Labs XP-20 for 2 years. Now I have a wider and deeper stage with the PR-SC5509. More dynamics and even more detail. Separation of voices and instruments is even beter. More touchable and loose from other parts of the recording.
