Just need a good receiver, no need to buy a special ampVery nice. Heard great things for the Canton speakers.
What would be a good amp for this? Will it need dedicated amp?
And I do like buying from A4L. Got some receivers/amps from there in the past.

I have pair of the 707 towers for my 2 channel system. I got them with the similar adorama deal. Some could argue there may be a slightly better sounding speaker for the money but imo no one will say there is a better looking or well made speaker available brand new for the price.Polk LSim 703 just went on sale for $449 a pair.

Kef LS50Funny, as I am reading through user reviews on these 703s; I keep seeing people praising how well they're built and how great they look; rather than how amazing they sound.
I do prefer sound over look. I don't look at speakers when I am listening to music.
I'd look at Crutchfield options, (the LX16s are excellent), as at $500/pair buying speakers from them is essentially you buy them you own them.Very nice. Heard great things for the Canton speakers.

Maybe that's because it goes without saying.Funny, as I am reading through user reviews on these 703s; I keep seeing people praising how well they're built and how great they look; rather than how amazing they sound.

Canton makes excellent speakers but A4L's return policy is among the least "friendly" out there, (you pay full, not discounted, shipping cost both ways plus 10% restocking...on on a $500/pair of speakers that could run $200+ very easily).
Crutchfield is a flat $10/box return.
Maybe that's because it goes without saying.
Over the past few years I've communicated with Polk about what I should replace my Polk speakers (SDA-2B, Monitor 5 Jr) of 30 years with, should the end come. It hasn't. The LSiM line was the answer. FWIW I listen mostly to Classical and Jazz.
I'm surprised you haven't already purchased what was recommended. Anyway, good luck, have fun, with whatever you choose.
