I purchased the Klipsch RF-3 home theater system and am so pleased with its soundstage. Realistic and rich.....and loud. It sounds great. I am wondering if it would sound even better if I used a different receiver or added an amplifier. Right now I have a Panasonic XR-55s and no amplifier. I am looking for a more compressed sound. Tighter and more dynamic. Any suggestions??

$500 for each. I don't know if an amplifier is necessary being that the room I am using them in is very small. I just want to get more dynamics out of the speakers.

I am wondering what is wrong with it at the present. When you write "more dynamics"...what is it that you want to get out of it?

do not pair the panny with those great speakers. Its a shame that they aren't made any more. Klipsch really had a great thing going with those. They could really rock a room, had great tight bass, the highs were fantastic, and they imaged rather well. The only thing is that they could sound a little boxy, as many towers in the price range.

here is what I suggest for amps. provided you have a pre-out on the panny...

outlaw audio monoblocks.

if you are looking for a more compressed sound, that is the opposite of more dynamic :-)

Gavin,
Sorry about that. Wrong choice of adjectives. Dynamic is what I was trying to say.
I am checking out the outlaw monoblock amp but what should I swap the panny out with?
