8-10k budget suggestions please

Hey guys, 

been out of the game about 10 years, got a new wife, new house, and plugged in my old B&W 804's.  Connected them to a Denon receiver expecting to want to do surround sound.......But forget it!  I really want to maximize my 804's for 2 channel listening.

My room is 15ft long by 13 by 9.  not very big but I need amplification and streaming capabilites.  Will add TT later as I do have vinyl.  Room tx is on it's way so let's just assume it's already done.

 

Thanks for all your help!

Hey guys it's the k300i.  It really doesn't seem bright at all.  I have more dampening comming. Now I wanted to ask about this issue

 

I contacted GIK, did their room module, sent in pics.  My room is 15 x 13 x 9

They recommended like two grand of absorption and zero diffusion. Is that normal?

golden rule for krell amps for smooth natural 2 channel sonics... avoid any model with a 'v’ in it like the plague

audiotroy,

should i upgrade the streamer?  also the manual in the krell says plug it into the wall.  Do you guys use any conditioning with yours?
