I just got a Specturm RS/232 Surround Sound system; its 1500 watts; will this receiver amplifier work for me?

I really don't know. I plug my smartphone or my samsung tablet to it and it sounds great

Amplifiers/receivers rated at 10-200 watts/channel are recommended. I use a receiver rated at 110 watts/channel with these speakers. Remember that the speaker outputs from the receiver for all channels are connected to the bass module. The individual channel speakers are connected to the bass module and not directly to the receiver.

This should work wel for your system. The total power of my amp stated on the test sheet was 715amps. It has plenty of power. Turn off the low pass switches to the speakers and get your base from the Sub woofer! I think you will be happy!

Vikas, you don't mention what you're using for receiver or surrounds. My setup is approximately the same give or take a foot and the bass is not problem. I'm using the Def Tech 1000 surrounds and a Pioneer SC-1523 Receiver.

Dear Grant,Thanks for your inquiry. The number of channels that a receiver has will have no bearing on how well it will work with speakers. The Klipsch RF-62II speakers are very efficient, meaning they will work well with most any stereo or home theater receiver that offers 75 watts per channel or more. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

yes, this is the receiver I am using, it sounds great, but you may want to get a powered sub...

Run the amps from the pre-amp outputs on your receiver. YOu should have at least two sets of pre-amp outs

As has already been said, your receiver is set up for 2 "sets" or pairs of front and rear speakers, so 2 pairs of these using existing speaker outs should be just fine, and better than stock for sure. I made a cooler speaker box with one pair to be run off my car's 320W RMS amp, and it sounds AWESOME!

You're all set with this receiver. No extra amps needed. I use this receiver to power my 9.2 surround system and zone 3 speakers and it works great.

It will work fine as long as the .1 (sub output) is not an active signal. Most receivers are not active. Usually if they're passive they have a mono RCA output, and if it's active it will have a speaker jack (for speaker wire). This sub kicks! I love the adjustable crossover, and the auto on/off feature.

Your receiver has plenty of power to drive the Polk speakers. You don't need the extra amp.Good luck

3600 watts will probably be a bit too much for this amplifier. I use mine for about 600 watts RMS between two subwoofers and I need 3/4 gain to power them. Im betting you would need one amp on each speaker cab for your system.

Hi Michele, It depends on the impedance of your speakers. Here are the amplifier section details of this receiver:Minimum RMS Output Power (*1): 95 W + 95 W (6 ohms, 20 Hz - 20 kHz, THD 0.09%)Stereo Mode Output Power (*1): 110 W + 110 W (6 ohms, 1 kHz, THD 1%)Surround Mode Output Power (*1)(*2): 150 W per channel (6 ohms, 1 kHz, THD 0.9%)-Anthony

It will be fine. It's actually more than you need. Assuming you have a true 1100 watt rms amplifier, and correct wire sizes , clean connections , these drivers are only rated at 400 rms I think. So if your only running one be cautious on how much gain you use. Just remember it's distortion that kills drivers not to much power. Good luck

If you have a good Quality surround receiver(Yamaha, Marantz, Onkyo ETC.), go ahead and use them with the receiver. It is designed to have a nice set of fronts. JIm

Yes I have a Denon 1613 receiver with the same wattage hooked to these. They can handle more power, up to 225, but 175 will be adequate.

It is better to have speakers with wattage ratings higher than the receiver. 150 watt speakers will work fine with this receiver as long as they can handle 8ohms. Check the ohm ratings for the speakers, you did not say what kind of speakers you have so I can't answer that. Look on the rear of the speakers for the ohm rating.
