Yamaha CR 820 looking for speakers that pair well

I have a Yamaha cr820 and a fluance rt85. I've been using new large Advents with them. My problem is occasionally I like to listen loud and the Advents which sound good to me at low volumes aren't cutting it at high volumes. I've been considering whether to buy a higher powered integrated amp as I'm not sure my 55 Watts are driving the advents like they should. This is also my first foray back into high fidelity sound. I am looking at a pair of heresies to replace my current speakers and I'm wondering, with their High sensitivity, if they would play louder and sound better with my Yamaha cr820? Any suggestions for speakers that would match well with my Yamaha or any input on how the Klipsch would sound. Thanks in advance!

JBL L96 :D

That would be the pairing I had a very long time ago.

Since the Yamaha has Tone & Loudness controls (if you arent afraid to use them) you could get away with many speaker brands

Klipsch could work well

Back when the 820 was current production we frequently pair it with advents, Genesis Physics II, Yamaha ns670, ns690 and ADS 710 or 810. It paired well with all of the speakers listed. My favorite combo was to stack ns670's and 690's which the 820 handled with no issue.
