What would be the best amplifier to buy for these speakers?

Hi,We recommend the Seismic Audio Shockwave4000 power amp. It has the power needed to get the maximum performance from these speakers.

First off you should try to find an amp that has a lot of power I think these speakers are rated for about 700 W RMS per speaker and you should try to find a legitimate company to buy the power amp from Peavey being one. I suggestion stay away from companies like Pyle their power ratings are not legit

If you find that Peavey is too expensive you might want to look into a Behringer EP 2000 at Amazon.com for $249 also Sweetwater same price. I think this amp will give you what you're looking for at a reasonable price

Not to hear sound, but getting speakers like this is definitely best with an amplifer. I recommend 50-60Wrms to each side (with HPF around 90 hz) for optimal preformance.

These Yamaha speakers connect to a amplifier with standard speaker cable. 60 watts per channel should be fine.

You might want to try Infinity Reference speakers...good quality and they are 2 ohm speakers.

You would also need an amplifier that produces at least 25W/channel. If you already have the amp, I'd say to go for it, otherwise, you might want to consider a pair of small powered speakers (similar to computer speakers with the amp built right in, but much bigger and better sound than typical computer speakers). Amazon has dozens of different choices of powered speakers.

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

if you want to go little money any cheap brand that's around 3000watts will work fine as they are rated way high for the true power.if you have a good amp like Yamaha or Samson something with true power 500 to 800 watts will work great

Yes, if you only have a head unit with no built in amp, it would be a good idea to get an amp for these speakers. They will still work without an amp, but they won't be as loud or have hardly any bass. As for which type or size of an amp to get, I can't help you there.

This amp is only 75 watts at a 4 ohm load. I'm not sure how big your speakers are; however, I would guess that you want something a little bigger. If you can afford it I would recommend an Adcom amp.

I installed a "Rockford Fosgate Punch 400-Watt Stereo Amplifier" for these speakers. I did not want anything really loud just a boost. It works great.

These are great speakers. I am using them with my home Stereo. so they would need an amp.

I'm no expert but I recommend Pioneer's 1300W amp. It will sound amazing with that!

If using a pair of these speakers, I would suggest the Cerwin Vega CV-900 900watt amplifier. Receiver choice is up to your personal preference.

I'd say a minimum 600 watt amp. You don't want a smaller amp that ur speakers will force it to go into protect mode. Any good brand like mb quart, hifonics, precision power, or even pioneer will do the work.

Nathaniel,A 4500 Watt may be just a little bit too much overkill for these speakers. They run at about 8 Ohms and 2200 Watts so in my suggestion a 3000 watt amp at the absolute highest. Remember you don't want to overpower and blow out the speakers but you don't want to under power and damage them either.

The Pioneers TS-A6975R would do it with an amp of 300 watts RMS, because if you use something higher you could blow the speakers. The Kenwood Excelon X500-1 would do the job or something within that size.

You should probably go for speakers with a 90db or greater sensitivity. There are alot of good speakers out there today. Depends how much you want to spend.Decide on your budget and they pick a brand and see if they have been reviewed.The avsforum.com has quite a bit of info both on audio and video. Good Luck. This amp is a work of art.you can go for more inefficient speakers but woun't be able to play them as loud before they start to clip (get distortion form the amp not having enough power to play at that level).
