Could these be used with a 10w per channel tube amp and still have enough volumn?

I think they would sound awesome with a tube amp, the speakers produce 92db with 1 watt of sound. That and tube amps have better bass response than semiconductor amps.

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.

Thanks for your question. While these are one of the more efficient speakers produced in the mainstream, they will play well with a low power amplifier such as the one you inquire about within the limitations that any 10Watt amp will have with very dynamic music. This is a fantastic sounding speaker. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Klipsch dealer.

Yes, they each have an 8 watt amplifier and the sound is excellent. They should work out fine for studio work, but wouldn't have enough power for performance situations with a live band.

these are just connectors not amplifiers!! you want 10 amps for something, get a 10 amp supply.

I play through a 10 watt and a 30 watt with the digitech. To my knowledge you can use any wattage of amp

The AVR-2100W is rated at 95W/channel x7 right? Enough for these speakers. Don't be carried away too much by the hype on power requirements for these speakers. I drive them with my 60W and 40W/ channel tube Amps and can't even get the volume past 1:00 position because it gets quite loud. Your amp should work fine. Also depends how loud you play. My rule of thumb- if you are cranking the volume past 2 to 3 o'clock position to enjoy your music then you need a more powerful amp whether it's a tube or solid state.

These are 4 ohm speakers and they can take a lot of power, 120W continuous, 200W peak output. if your amp isn't rated for 4 ohm speakers you could burn it up trying to drive these. Older amps were typically rated for 8 ohm speakers.

These speakers need power. I have 120W per channel and they could take more. Dont skimp on power.

Higher ohms are always compatible. As long as you stay above 2 per channel or 4 bridged you'll be fine with this amp.

This amp is not putting out 2100 watts to your speakers. Your speakers are probably 8 ohms. If they are 8 ohms they are getting 230 watts to each channel. 1050 Watts x 2 Power Amplifier 230 + 230 Watts @ 8 Ohms - 460 + 460 Watts @ 4 Ohms - 920 + 920 Watts @ 2 OhmsYou will need a much more powerful amp. Good luck!

I don't know why not, however they are rated at a maximum of 10 Amps, which would be a total of about 1200 Watts.
1475855
No. They really aren't 1000 watts. But they do sound good. I think if you get a good clean amp you should be ok.
1002996
I dont see why not! I use them for recording and they have a pretty flat response so your amp tone should be pretty accurate through them.

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, very much and rated by manufacturer for 4 ohms loads.mit would make 75W per channel I guess on 4 ohm load.

10 gauge would be good and is more than sufficient to hanlde the current draw of this amplifier. 10 gague is also what the manufacturer recomends for this amplifier.

Maybe too much power. Difficult to get rms figures for the amp but I reckon 300w per channel works. The amp seems quite happy driving one cabinet with one channel only. You can always use the second channel for a second cab should you ever get one. BTW. Amp still going strong. No problems.

you'll get 12v & 1amp on each channel. If voltage matches, amperage matters little.
