how much amplifier wattage would match for 2 pairs (4pcs.) of this speakers?

Just wanted to make it clear what Lam is saying, he meant that overpowering them is the cause of death, you can never harm speakers by under powering them.

They are rated for 2-80 watts RMS. Meaning anything in between will do. You can NEVER underpower speakers. Underpowering them is usually the cause of death. Killing them with too much power is like winning the lottery. Also there are no head units I know of that do 55w RMS. 55w PEAK yes, RMS no. There is a difference. If your speakers are distorting you need to set the High Pass Filter(HPF) to block out 50hz and below. These are not subs, sending them the lower freq cause them to bottom out. I just had to log on to get the correct answer out.

Sorry, I'm not sure. I was using them in a Mazda Miata 2 door using an aftermarket headunit that ran at 55 RMS. They sounded pretty good. Not a crazy amount of bass though. A subwoofer goes a long way. Excellent mid and high range from these speakers though, and the bass was reasonable.

These are rated for 80 watts RMS and I wouldn't advise going over that figure. I'm running mine on a Kenwood amp at 50 watts per channel RMS. They sound excellent! They do tend to distort a bit with a lot of bass so I've installed base blockers on my set. Great choice if you're looking for sound quality but I'd look elsewhere if you're goal is to entertain the neighborhood.

I really don't know. I bought them for my RAV 4 because it came with really cheap speakers. It worked fine for my stock stereo.

I have a 3000 watts Amplifier and I'm using 2 Pyle speakers PADH212 1600 each, and it works great, perfect sound, very louder, I love it.

users guide says 100W x4 max at 14.4VDC and 1kHz, you'll have to decide if that'll work for your speakers and what you're trying to do with them. My uneducated guess is that this thing will get stressed if pushed to the limits. I'm using it well below max and I'm very happy with it driving 4 computer speakers.

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.

The specs for this amp indicate 40 watts of power for each channel....so I believe it would be within your speakers' parameter.

my guess is it depends on your speakers ... audio amplifiers can be 25W, 75W, 125W, and up ... i use a 75W amplifier (made by PYLE) and it has plenty of power.

this amp will be good for the 4 speakers but you need a monoblock amb aka class d to find the correct watt amp multiply your speaker watt by 1.5 and thats how many wats the amp should be.hope you have good luck on your audio experience!!

Thank you for asking. The powered outputs on this are stable down to 4 ohms. As long as the impedance on your speakers is high enough the amp will be ok. If the speakers are rated to the right power they will be safe as well. Have a great day!

They're 8 ohm impedance speakers. Will work with any receiver or amplifier expecting to see an 8 ohm load.Many 12v amps are looking for a 4 ohm load, which I think is what you're referring to. Some are switchable. You can wire these in parallel to get 4 ohms, but I doubt that would be practical for you, since you'd need to install two pair in order to do it properly. If your amp/receiver is expecting a 4 ohm load don't get these.

Hi John, unfortunately the description is quite messed up so i can't be sure, the thing is that when i went to an audio store to purchase a power amp the employer there told me is 100watts each, these speakers for their price are perfect but it requires a power amp which costs too much money, hope i answered your question :)

I am not a big expert on amps or speakers. I can tell you that I use four Sony Bookshelf speakers which work just fine. See http://www.amazon.com/Sony-SS-B1000-4-Inch-Bookshelf-Speakers/dp/B000OG88KY/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1423929572&sr=1-1&keywords=Sony+bookshelf+speakers

A good 400 or 300 watt amplifier will be ok. The speakers can not take more then 400 watts of peak power. It can cause damage.

I use a standard receiver (amplified) and 4 work fine. I added an amplifier/speaker switch to run 4 pairs or 8 speakers from the one receiver. But just for 2 pair any receiver (amplified) should work fine.

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

anything between 150 to 300 watt RMS per channel will power these speakers at 8 ohm I'm driving the Emotiva XPA-2 Gen 2 300W RMS 8 ohm pre channel

I'd stick with the same. Some amplifiers can operate "unsafely" I.e. overheating or crappy sound, if they can't produce the right impedance per whatever ohm each speaker has. I'd start from ground up if you're wanting bigger better sound
