    Martin,

    Get a smaller listening room!
    (PS wish mines was bigger!)

    They do have a magic to them that no other type of amplifier has.

    I can't downsize any further I'm already at the bottom of the market. As those who have visited me will attest. But the room is big with high ceilings and open plan to upstairs. Speakers are 20' from couch. So the 4w SECA doesn't deliver the clean wallop that does it for me. Although stuff like acoustic Neil Young sounds fantastic through it. But I demand a system that will rock out too.

    Anyway, I'm solving all my problems with some Tannoy Ardens
    Current Lash Up:

    TEAC VRDS 701T > Sony TAE1000ESD > Krell KSA50S > Troels Gravesen Faital 3WC-15.

    What you need is some 10" DC drivered, MLTL beasties like these

    I rather like my small listening 'den'. The 12" Tannoys work great in there.

    Don't need big area if you get all the relationships right, the Gaffers main system(with Tannoys) are all in a very small room.

    If you want a bit of valve grunt, a Carver Silver 9 set-up may do the trick. 540 wpc ain't bad!
