I've enjoyed my PMC Twenty26 very much. Clear transparent with great soundstage.

I recently installed a significantly more powerful amplifier. An Emotiva XPR2 SE. At 600W per channel it's outside the operating conditions for the Twenty26.

It's simply too hot- too much power too much upper register bloom and results in music compression and ringing. As you might expect.

I'd like to keep the amplifier. I listen to all types of music and analog and digital sources.

I'm looking for a full range speaker to relish this power up to a $16K budget.

What do you recommend?
