No time to really listen to them, but man are they pretty. And just to give some perspective on the size, the TV is an 82". Pay no attention to the bose sub against the backwall :) And sorry bout the crappy phone pics.

    Power is going to have to wait a bit. I want to get a matching sub for HT, and these things are somewhat efficient as is, so upgrading will have to be done over time.

    Awesome speakers. I suspect they would sound even better a little farther apart and a bit more space from the wall. IME with Tylers, the imaging benefits immensely by having them a few feet from the wall . . . the depth is really increased then. Bringing them a little more into the room will also reduce any interference that massive TV has over the soundstage.

    Pickup some JC-1 Monos and get a good tube pre with an HT passthrough and you will be golden. There are some other seriously excellent monoblock options as well if you look around.

    Also, generally speaking, the speakers should not be equidistant from the front and back walls. You will increase your chances of getting some screwey peaks.
