Same valves in my Jadis. Is that Amp a KT88 version of Ivor's or can it take EL34's also.
Lovely amp can't see that hanging around long.Wadia looks very special also. Some lucky punter/s will get nice kit there.

All lovely bits of equipment. I don't think the amp will take EL34s - it'll be too high a bias I'd say.

Hi Brian , im listening to a pair of Monitor Audio Apex 10s with the BK xls400 sub and they are quite something to listen to,I didnt have the space for Floor-standers or even stand mounts so needed something that was happy to sit on a shelf and was front ported ..Im driving them with a small temple audio 15W Mini amp and they sing along nicely , can only imagine a really good integrated would make them sound much better .
The Anthem receivers are supposed to be very good with HT and Music , i suppose it depends what type of budget
Id also take a look at the SVS range of speakers they look quite interesting
Also to consider would be to look at an amp with a pre out/processor function so you could use a separate Integrated to drive the fronts- i used an Arcam A85 with my AVR 200 to drive the fronts many moons ago so - im sure there are modern equivalents nowadays
Give me a shout if you would like to her the Monitor Audios ..
Paradigm Millenia is another one to look at , if your looking for room friendly set up ..
Theres a nice set of both over on AVFORUMS ..
Cheers
