I agree that pro audio is the place to go for strong watts (4 ohm, etc) without breaking the bank!
I use a Yamaha P7000S (over-kill) to power my Philharmonic 3's. The fans do not come on until it starts to get hot. The heat sinks are decent, so the fans rarely run. When they do, they are very quiet - as in I don't know they are on.
If you post a thread in the amp section "Looking for a quiet pro amp", you will get some other options.
I would recommend the Yamaha series my amp is from, but I also know some newer options now exist with RCA inputs (I had to get special cables to go from preamp RCA to balanced amp connection).
There are also some that include a crossover to assist in bass management if that is useful to you.
Crown is probably what I would get if doing it over, but no complaints with what I have.
Seth, I see you replaced the SI-275 you sold me? Is that recent? It is still doing a great job for me!
