We've had a good number of customers who have had good success with our MA-1s running full-range. Its my understanding that the speaker is easier to drive than the specs in your original post suggest.
If you plan to supplement with a subwoofer, so much the better.
Our MA-1 is 140 watts. So you are looking for something with that sort of power. If you look for a used set of MA-1s you might find something that suits the price range. New will be a little tricker but I would expect that a conventional power amp with at least four 6550s per channel ought to make enough power if you have a subwoofer. There are a lot of amps out there that might suit.
How big is your room?
