I found myself in my local Best Buy today and I wondered over to the speaker section. I've heard about some people talking about the Athenas on these boards recently, and I decided to check them out. In the near future I think I might pick up a pair in order to complement my headphone rig. I was originally looking at something along the lines of the Paradigm MiniMonitors, but since these are more than $100 cheaper, I will probably go with them. The only issue is that I do not have an integrated amp. Does anyone have any suggestions regarding integrated amps that I could use with the Athenas? I source is a Rega Planet 2000. My major setback is my budget which MUST be below $500. I want to spend as little as possible. I was thinking possibly the new Cambridge Audio integrated amps, but I am not sure that they would be powerful enough at 65 wpc. I am quite unfamiliar with integrated amps so any help would be appreciated. Currently, im perusing audioreview.com and audiogon for some basic info and good deals. Thanks a lot.
