t,

I'm not sure about the AE P4 driven by the 2 watt Miniwatt.   According to the AE pamphlet, the P4 is 88 db and recommended power is 10-125 watts per channel.  If you don't have a big demo room and don't need to play loud then maybe the Miniwatt might do.

ltr317,

Thanks. I considered the P4s on the recommendation of Ken at ALO. I asked about the miniwatts ability to drive the JB3s. His reply was that the P4 were a better choice...I looked into the Hsu monitors due to their 92db efficiency, though it was measured in half space so some say more like 90db...still looking. Trying to run 2 watts into small speakers may be untenable, though small space/near field will be where I will be using them.
