“What type of amp would you need to power the B&W speakers?”

1-2 of 2 Answers

• In my experience, you will need an amplifier with at least 80-120w of RMS (Continuous) power per channel at an 8Ω impedance rating to get the most out of these speakers. Your speakers need to have adequate power to realize their advertised potential. Just remember if you add two of these 8Ω speakers to one channel the resistance will change to 4Ω. So if you find a two-channel amp make sure it's 4Ω stable if you plan on using 2 speakers per channel.

  I would recommend:

  • 
    SVS - Prime 300W 2.0-Ch. Bluetooth Capable A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black

• A 50-100w audio video receiver or integrated amplifier will have plenty of power. If you have a question that involves music distribution then I would suggest consulting with Magnolia.
