Is the Marantz NR1604 50W/Ch adequate enough to power two of these in a 12x15 room?

If you like classical music at the loudness of typical concert halls, I think 50 watts/channel is probably too low or marginal.One hundred watts/channel would be adequate. I now own a pair an drive them with a 200 watt/channel Adcom GFA-555.They are in an 11.5 x 11.5 room. The loudness is very good.

the 2000 watt should good enough for them, my passives are about the same, and it sounds good

I have a single woofer in my install. No that is too much power for a single. With a double you may be fine. I put 200 watts to my woofer and it sounds great.

It should be but you would only be using one channel so your input would be 30 watts.

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

As far as the overall watts are concerned, this is enough. There's also enough plugs for all of that (with room for another graphics card or two if you wanted more later). You should be just fine! I love this PSU. Highly recommended.

Yes it would.I'm running two of these.One on an 800 watt 4 x 10 and the other is driving a 500 watt 1 x 18,both at 4 ohms with zero effort.I played a gig recently in a small room and I didn't need to turn the volume past two.It 'll run your 8 x 10.I also use one as a DI when I record.Great sound.

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.

I have no experience with Marantz products. By looking at spec., the only real difference I see is the wattage per channel. This one is less by 45w. Few other minor differences but generally the same.

Per the Manual:Output Power, 2 channels driven 4-Ohm, 1 kHz, 1% THD - 15Wx24-Ohm, 1 kHz, 10% THD - 23Wx2Max Power - 75Wx2Not sure how they get the "max power" figures, 15x2 is realistic, it sounds pretty good with 5.25" bookshelf speakers at moderate volumes. If you're looking for audiophile quality, driving large speakers, or playing loud music look elsewhere. Perfect for a small room or ambiance on a patio though.

You are correct. It's about 15 watts output. Range should not be greatly affected by the difference in output.

I'm running mine into two behringer vp1220's. My monitors. Lots of power and gr8 sound. I'd say yes, no worries.

You'll be good. Mine is an 1100 watt hooked up to one 12". So ideally 2 of the speakers would need a 2200 watt amplifier to reach the speakers peak, but for your use it will sound great as long as it's wired up correctly and such

If the total power required is 120W at 12VDC, then this power supply is adequate. Make sure that the LED strips are wired in parallel. Note that the output of this power supply has two wires (instead of a DC jack).

I found it working pretty good. I have not used it intensively, may be 3-5 times, sound was same and teh connection did not break. I used it in 50 m2 room and I may say the 2x30 W was not giving high power as much as I expected. For smaller rooms, should not be an issue. I am very happy with NAD 3020 in general.

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

I would say yes. I'm using it too power my two JBl 12's and it sounds great.
