Need help from all you RM10 users on using this amp with my Chapman T-6 speakers, they are 89db 4ohm with a pretty benign impedance curve. My room is 17.5x13.5 with 9.3ft ceilings. I can be listening to jazz and then Radiohead(fairly loudly) and then back to female vocals, so it's pretty diverse. Roger thinks that the 35watts will work well, I guess I am looking for your experiences with speakers that my be similar to mine. They are a 3 way floor stander with a side firing 10" pseudo transmission line woofer. Do you think this combo will work well?Thanks.

if roger says it will work well with them i would go with it. my only concern is the 4 ohm impedance. as you know tubes hate low impedance speakers. i know the RM200 and the very scarce RM9SE will drive low impedance speakers with ease. i am not sure about the RM10.if you play music at loud levels then 35 watts probably is not going to do it for you.

NO one has any similar experience? I am surprised as this seems like a really active group :scratch: My next question is, what are all you RM10 users using for speakers with success? Thanks

The RM-10 can drive Lo-Z just fine, and you'll have adequate power for that room.
