If you use solid state be sure it's quality, the Klipsch get a bad rap because they are unforgiving to bad electronics. Jolida is a good suggestion as they are priced well and generally do a good job. Cambridge Audio integrated might work as well. Most decent tube gear will cost. I haven't tried it but I wonder how one of the Trends digital amps would work, cheap and have a good rep for sounding good. I bet any of the Peachtree would be a good match as well.
I have a set of Heresy III in a system which is fed mostly Rock and Pop in a workout area. They seem to have a nice midbass hump but roll off the bottom end fairly steeply. I deal with that using an Emotiva Ultra 12 crossed about 50Hz. The III's allow for biamping, so I'm currently using a Bryston 3B-st on the bottom end and a Parasound hca-750 on the horns. The 750 has gain controls so I can dial in just enough horns to a desired sound balance. Needless to say this system will reach insane SPL, either amp would be plenty by itself. The sound is clean though and hits hard.
If not abused Klipsch can last a very long time, with the high efficiency the woofer barely moves.
