I have a Yamaha RX-V675 7.2 Channel Reciever. Would that be enough to power this or do I need an amp

sure! this center channel is easy to drive. enjoy the center channel speaker, as i have very much enjoyed the one i purchased. it makes a big difference in movie dialogue and music vocals!!

this is an efficient speaker so a modestly powered receiver should work well.

Yes, your Yamaha RX-V75 will definitely power this center. You will love the sound of this baby!

Yes, you will need an amp. a 50 watt rms worked out well for me. It sounds great.

I would consider this amp underpowered for your task. Look at its rms power and you should understand why.

This receiver has an amplifier built in actually a pretty powerful one the only other thing you will need is a pair of speakers that can handle this much power LOL

I did not need an amp for these units. I am using an pioneer avic navi unit. Any upgraded stereo unit has more than enough power to run these and still sound good

It will work but u will only get about 2000 watt of clear sound u turn up any higher and it gets distorted otherwise u need a quality power amp

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

It's gonna be too little. I have a 2200 kenwood d block amp on it at the momont and it knocks that off. So you may need more power then that

You will need a 1600w amp at minimum. The sub does not have an amp built in.

doubtful that you'll need an amp unless your receiver is literally a POS. I would suggest you buy a higher grade speaker wire (I have 16 gauge on mine) and that you bi-wire them as well.

Yes it would be but you should get a 2,500 watt amp that would be way better

No, you need a separate 5.1 Channel amplifier. This is not a "Home Theater in a Box". You need something like "Yamaha RX-V377 5.1-Channel A/V Home Theater Receiver" - which will provide enough power to the speakers (as mentioned for this model, 10-120W / channel). Hope this helps.

This is a good amp but it's for a small system. Like for myself, with no loud music all the time, just once in a while to show off. Lol. Your speakers have a range of 400 watts if I'm not mistaken, so it should power it since it's a 500w model. But I would recommend you to get a 1k watts amp. Kenwood's a pretty good brand for this. At least mine does the work like a charm.

I would buy a bigger amplifier and continue using the pre-amp in your Yamaha. There are a lot of bells and whistles you'd be giving up by not using the pre-amp in your Yamaha. I'd call Emotiva directly and get recommendations from them. They are very good people and build superb equipment.

It's not too much, in my opinion, i think it will be perfect. You could connect ONE of these or have TWO 750.1 amplifiers, but i think it will take too much wiring. Just remember that speakers need their proper box (i would suggest a BIG vented box) and that they also need to be properly connected. And for the amp, just remember not to set the gain all high, but at least 3/4 of the way, make sure you also have a big fared capacitor (you don't want to drain out the car battery) or a second battery, and also make sure it has the proper gauge wires (for the battery, ground, and as well for the speakers) and a fuse. Thanks

You do not need an amp with this device. It sounds great. It has forward and rear firing speakers.

I would suggest an amp. You'll all a lot of the deck to run these properly.
