You actually just need an an amplifier that is capable of driving your speakers. By this I mean matching is extremely important. Amplifiers and speakers interact, and one amplifier with a rating of 100 watts might not drive your speakers properly compared to another make with the same rating. I compare this to be in the same league as cartridge/arm matching in turntables. You can get amazing sound with a cheap source and an amp/speaker matched combination. But start with the speakers, find some that matches your room, not just the model you tend to like. Actually a manufacturers smaller models might often play a lot better in your room than the more expensive bigger brother. My system can be seen in my signature. Planned upgrades is Welborne labs power for the SB3, and the onboard dac for the Bryston is already ordered. Very minimalistic since I do not have a big appartment.
