Thanks a lot. Creek (5xxx) is three times expensive than Brio. Does it worth?

Hi, first post here. I have recently bought a pair of RF15's. I'll use them for music and HT in a small - medium sized room . Since I have a very limited budget, I can't afford a second system for music only. So, to drive RF15's I am looking for a low powered, low cost amp. I listen to classical, jazz, blues most of the time. I chose RF15's over some other brands and bigger Klipschs because I think they are more balanced, richer in midrange and have enough bass for music to my taste. But I don't like too "laid-back" (or too smooth? mellow?)sound, I want it to be "dynamic".So I didn't go with say, KEF or B&W. I want to improve those carachteristics of RF15 I told about. Since tey are super efficient, (96 db) they can be driven with microwatt monoblock tube amplifiers. Antique Sound Lab Wave 8 is truly a good option for me. Seller in Turkey has a few in stock, but with (not the original ones on the unit, but apparently better) Edicron brand lambs. http://www.timpani.com.tr/pages/antique/wave.htm With a preamp, two Wave 8's cost around 750$. And then there is a SS amp which supposed to has tube amp quality, it costs around 500$. http://www.rega.co.uk/html/brio.htm http://www.stereophile.com/amplificationreviews/998rega/ Any suggestions-ideas?
