    Newbie -- Cheap match for the F3s?

     I'm new to audio and new to Klipsch, and sadly do not have much money to spend after buying some F3s.  I am a college student looking to blast out my neighbors with loud music and I have no idea what amp I need to power these things.  I have searched all over the web and most of what I find are low-power 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound receivers, but all I want is a 2-channel receiver that can put out enough power to not damage the F3s when I play music loudly! I've heard that I need to get an amp that puts out 200 - 300 watts, and I've also heard that I can't do it for less than 300$-- is that true?  All I need is one input and 2 outputs so I feel like there should be a cheaper solution.

     Can anyone give me any recommendations for a cheap solution to my dilemma?

    Not true at all.

    How much are you looking to spend?  Where are you located?

     I'm looking to spend as little as possible, but enough that I can get all that these F3s can give. I'm located in Chapel Hill, NC.
