Klipsch Heresy? Crazy to consider?


I need help and advice. I have Prima Luna tube separates. Pre and power about 40 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Very small office approximately 9 x 12. I have Dynaudio x12's, Dynaudio x32's and a pair of KEF ls50's. All sound okay in my room. The x32's are just too big I think. The x12's sound great but not much bass. Considering a subwoofer. The ls50's sound good but not as great in the mids as the x12's. I think I might be underpowered for my speakers. A friend has some Klipsch Heresys that are supposed to be good with tubes. All Klipsch I heard I couldn't listen to long and real picky about material but I have only heard them with solid state (McIntosh 2105). Are the x12's my best bet for this room with a sub? Should I consider the Klipsch Heresys? Cannot listen to them in my room before buying. should I consider a more efficient speaker like Tekton or something in better quality. Or should I get a more powerful solid state amp and use with my tube preamp with what I have. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I have used a Prima Luna integrated (PL2) with a CD player as a source for almost 10 years in a similar sized room. I use monitors as opposed to floor standers, since the room serves as a TV room, for lack of a better phrase.

The two speakers that worked out the best for me were the Rega Aras (now the RS1) and my current speakers for the last 4 years, the Ascend Acoustics Sierra 1s .

Read the reviews, as the reviews tend to be spot on for the Sierra 1s.
