Currently have have a Yamaha RX-V1000 serving multiple duties, but for music, it serves as the pre-amp.  I run my main speakers with either my Hafler DH-220 or my DH-500.  I was considering replacing one, or both with a pair of LeAmps.  I'm guessing I'll be taking a step down in the power category, but a step up in quality of sound.

Question is, will they be adequate for driving the (under construction) Alpha's?  Keep in mind I do like to rattle the house once in a while.  I was also thinking I could get another pair later and bi-amp.  

Thoughts?

PS: I know my Alpha's deserve better electronics.  I'm working on that

You may want to also consider the AKSA 55 watt amp or the 100 watt amp. The Alpha's are so efficient. I bet the 55 watter will be sufficient. And don't be fooled by the power rating. They sound equivalent to 2x as much power from your typical B&K amplifier.

I've read alot of great things about the ASKA amps.  I would definately like to build one someday.  It appears that a 100W ASKA would cost a minimum of $600-$700 to build.  With a 55W unit not all that far behind.  

Looks like I can get a pair of LeAmps for about $350.  Of course I could also just keep my DH-500 and knock some walls down.     But, as much as I enjoy crankin' it up once in a while I am also VERY interested in sound quality.
