What source and amplification would you use to drive KEF LS50 speakers?

[JLVenter]

I am following several posts on different forums regarding these speakers.

By the way, I thought you were in Brisbane, now I see you are in Sydney? I am in Grafton .

Anyway all reviews indicate that you need serious power for these speakers. If you message me I will direct you to a guy that has a pair which he has tested with several integrated amps, which may just help.

Also re AVR's: AFAIK they have a bigger output when only 2 channels are used compared to when all channels are used.

Personally, I would look for something second hand which will be much better value than new.
