Hi Dark Sun,

Thanks for your message. To fill out a room that size I would recommend using four speakers rather than two standard stereo speakers. An amp with enough output and power to do this would be the Yamaha AS501:

This amp has 5 analogue inputs, as well as two line outputs, a headphone output and 2 digital inputs. It can also be turned into a Bluetooth amp with the Optional YBA-11 dongle making connecting a phone/tablet much easier than having to use a phono to 3.5mm cable.

For speakers There are a few I would recommend but the best for your purpose would be either the Monitor Audio MR1s but if the budget can stretch to it I would go with the Monitor Audio MR2s:

http://www.richersounds.com/product/standmount-speakers/monitor-audio/mr2/moni-audio-mr2-blk

These are large bookshelf speakers that will fill out a large space and can be driven harder than a smaller set. They are also very similar to the Monitor Audio Bronze 2s (What Hi Fi award winners 2015) but significantly less expensive.

If you have any other queries please don't hesitate to contact me!

Many thanks

David
