Just got my hands on some srs 2s and I am looking for an amplifier that would elevate these monsters.

    Blade/blade SRS 2s are essentially SDA 1Bs in a larger cabinet.

    My 1Bs are currently powered with an Acurus 200x3; the third channel is running a center-channel speaker that's inactive for music. An Acurus A250 (2-channel) or A200x3 (the newer version of my 3-channel amp) would be similar.

    I've been using an NAD C370 integrated for years. ;)
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.
