I am considering adding these to my family room theater, but was concerned about the amp needed to drive them. The BKs suggest 400+ watts to drive and the BSs suggest no more that 50 watts to drive (in the manual) The BKs can be ordered with a "specially designed" amp to drive them, but the thing will have to be hidden - it's butt ugly!

Would I be better off driving a couple of BSs with a M200 or doing the BK w/amp combo for $550? I don't think I can get the "in home" demo on these either of these units.

Comment welcome.

Thanks,
