The unit can handle 150w from each amplifier channel? Or 150w to every speakers output? I want to use with a stereo 400W rms/ch amp &amp; 6 x 140w speaker

it should no problem, it's not a powered device itself. all this does a split the power you currently have coming from your receiver

Is that RMS? What volume level? Since these are efficient they should provide very loud output before utilizing anywhere near 150 watts. I have 95 RMS and never max out.

You could use one amplifier per speaker, but it won't be any better than plugging both speakers into one amplifier - it's 15 watts per channel, not 30 watts wherever, so leaving one side disconnected doesn't gain you anything on the other side. You also can't connect them together. That really shouldn't matter much, though. You don't actually have to run 30 watt speakers from a 30 watt amplifier - I've had this little amp hooked up to a pair of 100-watt speakers and it was just fine. You can't run the speakers to their maximum volume, but they run just fine at normal volumes. Remember, noise and power aren't linear, so 15 watts isn't half as loud as 30 watts. In fact, a mere 3 watts is half as loud as 30! 15 watts is enough to get your speakers fairly loud.

It will produce sound, the quality will be questionable tho. I put 150w rms to mine and they sound amazing. Between 100w-200w would be ideal IMO. The more CLEAN power that you give them, the better they'll sound.

It has more to do with the output of your player and the expected input of the speakers. Example: If the output of the player is 75W per channel (per speaker) and the speakers are 75W, you should be fine. If the speakers are 150W, it may still work, but it won't be optimal. I have a Denon system that outputs 90W per channel and I split each channel to two speakers. This provided 45W per speaker and my speakers are 150W speakers. In this situation, I had to use a mini amp per each set of speakers to boost the signal.

Think of this unit as 5 individual power amps to do as you please. Use "Y" input connectors to create 2 sets of 2 speaker outputs. Add an external equalizer if you need further adjustments. What you'll want to do with the 5th channel is anyone's guess. I hope this helps.

Hi Willy well I` am only running Four 6.5 3way Pioneer 50 watts speakers. This is enough for my system. You might need something a little more powerful.

My Receiver is 125 Watts per channel. I've never even come close to full volume because the speakers are so powerful. You want to crank your stereo then go for it with no worries.

Well this depends on what ohm rating the speakers are. They aren't just "1200W", they will be 1200W at either 2, 4, or, 8 ohms. Once you find this out, look at the amps specs and look at the ohm rating that matches the ohm value for you speakers, that is the amount of watts that the amp will produce at the ohm rating per channel. You may want to get a more powerful

My comment is that I agree that underpowered receivers or amps will easily damage your speakers. I learned the hard way when I was a teenager 25 years ago and the receivers I used then blew tweeters. Then I bought a Carver amp and felt the difference. At this time, I have Carver amps driving L/R/C/Sub Channels on my system. It is safer to have a 250RMS Watts per channel amp than a 40watt receiver.

2000 w is absolute peak power which is sort of missleading. You rateings are usally RMS,PROGRAM and peak.this amp hits peak and youll be in trouble because it will be clipping.Alot of distortion happens at clipping and that's what destroys speakers. 150w per channel rms is good for your speakers because then you just idle amp which adds up to clean sound. Start out at 1 quarter and careful what you pre amp it with. Thirty years a wanna be rock star and sound man. To old for 70s 80s hairvband lycra! Lol!!

I wouldn't use this unit. It will not drive 8 ohms speakers even though it's rated 90W. Also if you don't connect both channels it will severely overheat. Must be the way the amp is designed.

If you bridge it to get 150 watts you need to use an 8ohm speaker or it will overheat. I used up the 5.1 A&B; speakers on a Yamaha to power surround and an additional B set of speakers in a pool cabana. I have this set up as a third 2 channel amp to power a set of Bose outdoor in ground speakers which are 4ohms each. So far it has worked very well. It's in an enclosed cabinet and the internal fan does turn on when the weather is warm or I have it cranks up. You don't hear any fan noise unless you get close. So I do know it builds up heat. The auto power off and on is a very nice feature.

It is better to have speakers with wattage ratings higher than the receiver. 150 watt speakers will work fine with this receiver as long as they can handle 8ohms. Check the ohm ratings for the speakers, you did not say what kind of speakers you have so I can't answer that. Look on the rear of the speakers for the ohm rating.

That's the peak power output according to manufacture specs but the actual power out is about 1700 watts(roughly) and I wouldn't hook it up to a speaker that big. You gotta try try to keep everything level otherwise you'd be over tasking one of the components. I didn't particularly like this model.

Hi, You can BI-AMP the Front Mains...but you can't Bridge.....If you want more power you can add a more powerful Amp up to 9 channels as it has 9 PRE-OUTS.......so you could use say a 7 Channel 300 Watt per channel amp using the preouts (Or how ever many channels you want 2,4 5 7 whatever.....I have a 300 Watt 2 channel pre-outed to my Front Mains.....but your speakers better be able to handle it and if you BI-AMP (which is different) you Speakers have to be Biampable)...Hope this helps.....

Speakers are 300W continuous, 750W program and the Recommended Power Amplifier: For maximum SPL: 600W to 900W @ 8 Ohms. The amp puts out 1050W Bridge-Mono at 8 Ohms. So I think 1 amp for 1 speaker works fine but you would be under powered for two speakers with this amp. However I'm not sure how the recommended wattage changes with a pair of speakers and dropping to a 4 Ohms load. If max power doubles to 1200-1800 watts while dropping to 4 Ohms this amp will be in the middle with 1550-W @ 4 Ohms.
