Looking for 200 watt Amp to drive Dynaudio Heritage speakers
hard to grasp that those awesome speakers lived in the closet I seriously doubt they need more than a 100 Watts to sing, unless they have to fill a giant space. (and I don't forget: you promised photos of the Qlns :) )

thanks Brad / @lonemountain  for your insight. I imagine that the process from design to manufacturing and selling is a very complex process.  I don't know how complicated it is to keep prices updated, not just the technical aspects but calculati... 
anybody compare Dynaudio Special 40's/Heritage Specials/Confidence 20's?
