Can these speakers handle a 3,000 watt stereo? I wanted to hook up 4 of these speakers outside

Well my friend I got this speaks on my amp 1500 watt with no problem, my neighbor don't complain to much lol

You need to know how many watts you will be pushing per channel and the resistance (ohms). Are you running at 4 ohms per channel? If so, that will fry these puppies. But, it shouldn't damage your amp, so you can always try it if you have the cash to spare. If I were you, I would contact the manufacturer.

I have a aftermarket 4x 55w stereo deck and they power them very good. With good wiring they well sounds great. You do need to have the bass turned down just a little and they will sounds like a hundred dollar speaker. I recommend these speakers.

At my house, I have a supplemental amplifier, and it's enough to power three sets of stereo in-ceiling speakers, and a set of stereo outdoor Bose speakers without any problems. Just check for your receiver's output specifications to make sure it will be enough. Otherwise, simply purchase another amplifier just for the speakers.

It may...by connecting them paralleled to the amp, and installing a passive filter on the output to the 12" sub. The problem with that wiring scenario and 4 ohm speakers is that you will force the amp to run at a lower ohm load than it is supposed to accept. I would not recommend this because even if it worked, it would overheat. Throw a separate bridged mono amp with a capacitor on the sub instead...hope that helps and good luck with it.

Yes, but you will need at least 15 watts of power to power up these speakers. So you need a 15 or higher Stereo power Amplifier to connect to the turntable and speakers. As far as cables: speakers wirer and I think maybe RCA cables? I don't know what kind of turntable you have, or are getting?

I would imagine you can. This has circuitry protection built into it to protect it. I don't think it would matter the wattages as long as it's a balanced system between the 6 pairs of speakers.

Yes, you could, but I was not impressed with the quality or sound of these speakers. There is no way they are going to handle 200 watts. Of course, they were inexpensive, but you could do better...

I don't see why not. They are great quality speakers. Still haven't had a chance to hook up my system but don't anticipate I will be disappointed.

No I have not, but if it's a 4ohm rated amp I wonder if there will be adequate power to sufficiently power them (depending on your needs), as these are 8 ohm speakers.

I have sold the house I put these in but they are great sounding speakers . I suggest you verify via Yamaha website if the rated wattage is a concern. I am putting Yamaha in at the new house but a different style due to mounting arrangment

I don't know. I have a Sony marine stereo with 4 25 watt outputs and I am running 4 JBL's with plenty of power and great sound. If you split 4 channels to 6 speakers, I think you will need and amp.

You can use 4 speakers of 6" x 9" 100w maximum, if you need more power you need install an amplifier, but is an excellent stereo.

You want your speakers to be wired into 2 ohms, not 4 in order to get the full 500 watts out of this amp. Otherwise your limited to 300. Let me suggest these speakers, they are what I have and are very impressive with this amp: MTX Audio Terminator Series TNE212D 1,200-Watt Dual 12-Inch Sub Enclosure

If they're 8 ohm speakers, this may be a bit under-powered. They have a 3000 model that would be better suited for only a small amount more.

Oh heck yeah, without a problem. I'm running a Pyle 3000 Watt amp & their taking it all just fine. I strongly recommend these speakers. I couldn't be happier.

These speakers are 4ohm rated. You will need an amp that can handle 4ohm speakers. I use a AudioSource Amp 100 Amplifier. It goes for about $120

Yes, but if you have a true 1000 watt system these speakers will only be able to handle a limited volume push. They will give you a nice full sound. I would not hook them up to a the subwoofer channel.
