    Outlaw, Parasound, Rotel, Adcom, etc. etc. the list is endless. Do a search on amplifiers here on the forum & read up!!! Try not to settle for less that 200 wpc especially if you plan to upgrade to larger speakers.

    i have a Rotel 1080 powering a pair of Rti10's and am very happy with that combo. The rest of my system is powered by Rotel 1075. I am using a pioneer 1015 as a pre/pro for now. I like the way the system sounds.

    All the amps that have been listed are all capable and will get you nice results. I agree that you will want 200 wpc at a minimum if you plan to upgrade to the Rti10's or 12's.
