I dont want to spend a arm and a leg, but I was thinking about maybe JL audio or alpine for amps.

I was also looking at the older MB Quart amps, like the Mb Quart RAA4200 4 channel 800 at amp. Would this 1 amp work well with my setup??
1. more power to the front stage, less to the rear. (when you go to a concert is your back facing the stage?) Rear speakers provide fill, but are not supposed to be the "source" of the music.

2. Old MB Quart amps.... Are actually Rockford amps. MB Quart never made amplifiers, if they did they would have been made in Germany. Rockford used to own MB Quart and made a series of amps to exploit the MB Quart name.

(I used to be the MB Quart home Audio rep when Rockford owned them)

3. JL and Alpine are fine manufacturers. If you really want to exploit the performance abilities of the Dynaudio speakers you should be looking at a higher quality audiophile grade amplifier. McIntosh, Zapco, Audison, and even Boston Acoustics make some of the best class A/B amplifiers you can get, just maybe not afford. Anything else would and you would be doing an in-justice to those fine speakers.
