How do these pair with an Onkyo A-9050 75 w/c @8ohm?

I have them paired with a Marantz SR5001 8ohms, not sure of wattage but well over 25. These speakers are great! Distortion free even at high power level. Worth the money

They're 8 ohm impedance speakers. Will work with any receiver or amplifier expecting to see an 8 ohm load.Many 12v amps are looking for a 4 ohm load, which I think is what you're referring to. Some are switchable. You can wire these in parallel to get 4 ohms, but I doubt that would be practical for you, since you'd need to install two pair in order to do it properly. If your amp/receiver is expecting a 4 ohm load don't get these.

We have this paired with a model from onkyo. They are solid and can get a good deal on amazon. I think ours was about $250 or so.

Yes, they are. When pairing speakers and receivers the most important numbers are the wattage handling and wattage output. Thay dont have match perfectly, in fact, there can be a 25% difference either way. For instance, a 100 watt reciever can push 125 watt speakers and vice/versa. Although, generally, you want your receiver to be the higher of the 2. As far as the 6ohm load of these speakers, which is admittedly not the norm, dont sweat it with the Denon, its more than capable. I strongly recomend a subwoofer (between 200-350watts rms(rms is the key number, not the peak number)). You might check out Fluance all in one speaker combos. I havent heard them, but they do seem on par or better than the Jamos.

Speakers do not have to come the same manufacturer. In my case I am using the stereo unit with an existing built-in speaker system. There are several stereo speakers in different rooms so in my case I need & use an impedance matching unit so that I do not burn out the amplifier in the stereo receiver. If I recall correctly the Onkyo unit I have has to be connected to 8 ohm impedance speakers. I don't recall the power output per channel, but I suspect you could get away with speakers rated for 30 watts or greater. Hope this helps.

Please google it. I think you might find something on avsforum.com. If I remember, it has been addressed or will be shortly. Not sure if this applies to specific Onkyo models.

Susan, I originally bought a pair with the sub woofer. I then wanted to do a 5.1 home theather and added another pair without the sub woofer. I am using an Onkyo TX-NR414. Works great!

Hey Matt, we just purchased the Onkyo cs-355. we attached a pair of Yamaha speakers to it.... works great!

James, not familiar w/ that reciever, the onkyo speakers probably would work well with your reciever, great speakers.

The Onkyo TX-NR929 has Audyssey MultiEQ XT32. It is considerably more sophisticated than just an equalizer. It can take the nearly flat output of the 929 and manipulate it to compensate for anomalies in both your room and your speakers. Your 636 can do something similar, just not to the degree that the 929 can. Also I wouldn't attribute high frequency performance issues to the 636 first. I would first suspect tweeter or crossover issues in those older 901s.

Hi Joe, to be honest with you I returned this. It didn't work for me either. I tried to plug them into a amp and nothing. Definitely cheap and not worth the money if you ask me.

I am running this sub with 8ohm bose speakers on an onkyo amp and it all works fine

Got these hooked to a 8 ohm receiver and it performs great. The box said 8 ohm. Believe what you want. I have these mounted on my front deck.

I haven't set them up yet -- waiting for the remodel to complete. I bought a Sonos Connect:Amp to pair them with -- it's rated at Class-D (2x 55W, 8 ohms). The Sonos Amp is extremely versatile, can't wait to hear it with the Wharfedales. Should be very good. http://www.sonos.com/shop/products/connectamp

I'm no expert, love how my pair is performing. To answer your question, I would assume that depends on the other components in your system, especially the amplifier you're hooking them up to. Hope somebody smarter than me can give you a better answer.

I just bought the speakers and paired them with Denon AVR-S500BT; awesome. The price is similar to Onkyo but Denon has the auto calibration tool. The setup is also very easy, just another option for you to consider.Either way, it should work.

I have a pair of Infinity P363's connected to this receiver. Based on reviews for these speakers, they can hit 4ohms. Haven't had any issues at up to moderately high volume levels.
