These floor standers look interesting- http://www.reiver-acoustic.com/jenna.html

Any of you members heard them?

Yes I heard both these and their bigger Edingdale brothers at Owston last year.

I almost took a punt on the Edingdales from Colin but ultimately my budget and room couldn't stretch to them. The Jennas remain firmly on my wishlist. We spent quite a bit of time listening to these in the Sunday morning with all manner of gear including Ali's Kraken amp, my Mini 1 and some of Nick Gorhams gear.

Wonderful, natural and bass depth and balance which belies their size. If I had 2k to spend on these I'd have them in a heartbeat.

I know it depends on ears/room etc. But can the Jenna's handle high volume OK?

Does the maker of these speakers, also have experience using Sugden amplification as well?

Yep, be hard to beat these at the price, commercially speaking.

Not sure if Colin's tried them with SS class A, but certainly with valve class A. An easy to drive speaker, so should work well with a variety of amps.
