Will it power speakers of average sensitivity in a small room or office (10x10)?

Hello Artanyan and thank you for your inquiry! The amplifier section of the Wadia 151 PowerDac is quite impressive and should do a fine job of driving speakers in a small room. We're here to help so please let us know if you have any additional questions! Thanks again, Scott G and the rest of the ListenUp sales team 1.877.744.1179

I can honestly tell you that the amp does not put out rated power. Not even close. If you want it for a really small room then it will be fine. But if you want enough power to be heard over a large space filled with talking people? Look elswhere.

what about speakers with 150-watt maximum input power? I'm a novice at this stuff.

To be clear, this amp claims 45 W/channel *peak-to-peak*, not RMS. This unit will only put out a bit over 10 W/channel RMS. It will not hurt anything to drive larger speakers with a smaller amp, but you will not get the full volume your speakers are capable of. If your speakers are rated at 80W RMS, then this (10W RMS) amp will only produce 1/8 the power (which will sound about 1/2 as loud) as the speakers could put out with a larger amp. It depends on the efficiency of the speakers and the size of the space whether that will be loud enough for your needs or not.

will power to max capacity of speakers. 15 watts clean with bigger power-supply. Not going to Rock a night club but more then enough for casual listening.

That's a fairly variable question. The speakers depend a lot on the answer. Even within the same OHMS rating the amount needed to rightly power a set varies a lot. All I can say is these are plenty powerful for a 10x10 room using some vintage Scott s-15 speakers from 1969 with 10 inch subs + a dedicated 10 inch sub on the floor. Probably wont answer your question but you would need to include a lot more variables to get a good answer.

Yes, I think so - ultimate fidelity depends on the efficiency of the speakers (I got the 100watt amp, which is plenty to drive the smaller speakers I have).

The speakers are not made for a large space. Imagine sitting at your computer and having the speakers excite the space within an area of 30 sq ft. In this area they are clear, with great definition. I have B&W; speakers that can handle 200 watts each and an REL Sub. These are made for a large room and at low gain fill the room. You would be better to get a pair of Senheisser or Grado headphones and plug them into the MM1 jack.

I think it will be sufficient enough, I work in a big, noisy warehouse and the clarity is good as you walk farther from it, but it is only 1/2 as loud as it could be and loses power faster without it being plugged in.

That depends on the speakers. This amp outputs a true 1000w RMS, which is PLENTY of power for most speakers.

These are very efficient, so they would produce some decent volumes at 10 watts. Not enough for a large room or high volumes, but probably enough for listening at reasonable volumes.

Hi I used it with really good results with a couple of small "JBL Control One" speakers and they did work fine, even though their sensitivity is on the lower side at just 87dB/W/m. Some speakers with higher sensitivity would even give you more volume. I think this little baby is capable of driving to a good level a small system if you are not unrealistic with your expectations.I myself have moved on to a "NAD D3020" but that is another ball park. But I am not getting rid of the TP30, I do like it.

The sensitivity for those bookshelf speakers is 87db. Its pretty average. Pyle is usually completely wrong with their power specifications but 8 watts should be more than enough for nearfield and enough to fill a small room. The dayton dta 1 and smsl sa50 are other options in the price range.

It can power anything that takes the direct speaker wire input, but depending on how large the area you want to hear it in is and how much background noise there tends to be 75 watts may not be enough. If you want it heard clearly over any sort of crowd you probably want more. You can also check the impedance of the speakers, the 75 watt power output is on 4 ohm speakers, if they are 6 or 8 ohm speakers you won't be able to get as much raw power out of them.

There are several models of Klipsch floor standing speakers with different efficiencies, and I don't know how loud you're wanting to play them or how big a space you want to fill. This isn't a particularly powerful amplifier. But yes, it will power your speakers at "normal" listening levels. Whether it will provide the volume you want in your room, I couldn't say. If I had Klipsch speakers, I'd go higher-fi, personally.

we use speakers intended for a PC and they are work fine for us. We have a relatively small conference room though.
