How does these pair with Yamaha R-S700 receiver at minimum RMS Output Power: 100W x 2 * Dynamic Power per Channel (8/6/4/2 ohms): 140/170/220/29 W?

Oh and never give any credence to "dynamic power." Rms is the only thing you need to concern yourself with. Unless you don't play any music at all. "Dynamic power" will fade when playing continuous sound (like music.) more for things like short bursts of sound like in movies. Better off not even paying any attention to dynamic. RMS is gospel.

Sounds like it'll be slightly under-powered. It's always better (IMO) to overpower speakers to avoid blowing them at odd frequencies and high volumes. Power is exponentially more important than quality of speakers. Cheap speakers will sound great with an awesome power source but great speakers won't live up to their potential with inadequate or overrated ( cheap) power/amplifiers. My suggestion is overpowering your speakers about 15-20% more than the speakers are rated for. Won't matter if you don't "work" your speakers hard but under powering effects rebound of the speaker cone and can tear them apart. I believe these speakers are rated for either 125w or 150w. I matched mine up perfectly and wish I would have gotten a bigger amplifier, although they sound great but begin to struggle at very high volumes. It'll be fine if you don't abuse your speakers though.

You only need to look at RMS power for 8 ohms. Klipsch speakers are rated at 8 ohms and are very sensitive too so you won't have any problem driving them with 100 watts per channel. I use a denon 3313ci with my Klipsch RF-62 5.1 setup and it sounds great. Make sure you aDr a good subwoofer too. The best addition to my surround system is my SVS PB2000. I can't believe the difference it made.

The only data that i could find is on another website. It claims to be only 250 watt rms. I have them ran in a circuit bridged at 4oms with this amp Pyle PLA2378 2-Channel 2,000-Watt Bridgeable Mosfet Amplifier and they sound great for the cost. Not sure if they are only 250 watts rms that sounds low for the way they sound. Thats all i could find.

The receiver can easily drive 4 ohm speakers. The RMS power rating of 80W applies to 8 ohm speakers, so the power output for 4 ohms will be somewhat greater. You can change the speaker impedance from the default setting of 8 ohms to 4 ohms using the "Advanced Setup" menu as described on page 37 of the owner's manual.

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

It should be OK. My Yamaha avr can get to 95w and these spkrs are still fine at very loud level (my ear drums start getting hurt)

I would say about 150 Watts RMS. You really need some nice clean power to drive these speakers. I would highly advise to Bi-amp your speakers: meaning get an external amp in addition to your Receiver's amp.

I own The R-S700 and I won't regret to have this model. It's just the best. However, based in the features of the R-3 I believe that if you don't need anything else the R-S500 will do the job. I will appoint 2 maim differences: power output 75 vrs 100 and the connections between pre and main amp that are separated only in the R-S700. There is where I have my equalizer connected.

"301: Compatable with amplifiers and receivers rated from 10 to 150 watts per channel. Rated 4-8 ohms" quoted from owners manual. My receiver is 8 ohm.

The Yamaha RX-V377 receiver has a subwoofer pre-out connection (signal is not amplified), and the Yamaha YST-SW315 sub has a 250-watt amp. So, yes, it should work just fine. To connect the sub to the receiver, you just need a subwoofer cable (single RCA cable).

Yes they need a lot of power to work .. I run the pair off a 100 watt receiver and they sound ok .. You get what you pay for

The RX-V671 is rated at 8ohmshttp://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio-visual/av-receivers-amps/rx/rx-v671_black_u/?mode=model#tab=product_lineupRated Output Power (20Hz-20kHz, 2ch driven) 90W (8ohms, 0.09% THD)

How does Yamaha RX-V667 7.2-Channel Home Theater Receiver goes along with this?

You can mix impedance but you'll need to mess with levels to make sure they blend properly (although, you won't be able to overcome the different types of sound produced by the LSi's vs the TL350's). Regardless, your receiver just isn't up to par to properly drive your LSi9's. I had a 100wpc Yamaha RX-V659 which put out a very-good 170wpc RMS at 4 ohms and it still wasn't up to snuff. Once I hooked up an Emotiva XPA-3 (300+wpc RMS @ 4ohms), it was like I was listening to a whole different pair of speakers. Get a good dedicated amp. It will make them sing!

I am using a Yamaha A-S300 Integrated Amp. I think it puts out 60 watts per channel. The Yamaha has A&B; speaker outputs that you can play at the same time, so I have two sets of speakers for each channel. It creates a really nice sound stage. I think that the P-4s on their own are great speakers for the money.

My receiver is 100 watt rms and it has no problems maxing them speaker out very nice speakers

Yamaha receiver? I run mine with a digital 4 channel fx mixing board and have it wired out to two 750w peak pa speakers (sub + horn). Works fine

I left mine at 8 ohms because it had plenty of power at 8 ohms for me, but you can easily change the receiver impedance to 6 ohms if you want to. Download the Yamaha manual for the receiver from their site and it will show you how...it's fairly simple.
