Thank you for your input, I do not listen to my setup at 123 db unless I am simply showing off, I had to run some 10/2 wire to circuit breaker to get better current, but anyhow. I really just wanted to know if they had the headroom that I need without much distortion to drive my front stage. I am not a newbie to home audio, I am just a newbie to being an audiophile, I really want to impress now with the quality of my setup, I built my own subwoofers as I have an old car audio amp I used to run driving them with a a 100 amp power supply on that end I just really need a cleaner front stage, now the question at hand is I had 4 4 ohm DX9s(yes I know when a driver resonates the resistance changes) and 2 B&W 580s what Van Alstine amp or Amps should be best to drive these 6 speakers, money is and issue, but I will arrange the funds to buy what is needed. I was thinking I could put 2 DX9s in series at 8ohms and get a strong two channel for that as well as another for the B&Ws, any advice?
