I have my LS50s plugged into my Ragnarok. Every single day they make me grin (though maybe that's the Yggy). The Rag has no problem filling out their sound. It's a little annoying as an speaker amp without a remote, but on sound quality and power it's a winner.
Sounds great and all but, op budget so far is under 1k so the ragnarok is out of range for him and him asking for 240v I'm just gonna make assumption he is in euro or somewhere else overseas which will probably mean the ragnarok will cost close to 2k I'm guessing then.
Doh. I completely missed that.
