I have a new RSX-1056 receiver that we use 50-50 for movies/music, and a 5.1 speaker setup having these specs:
- 2 X Kef Coda 8, 6-ohm nominal, 10 to 100W, Sensitivity 2.83v @ 1m 91dB, Frequency Range +/* 3dB 45Hz - 20kHz.
- 2 X SRS Labs Klayman Signature Series Flat Panels, 4-ohm, up to 100W long term (150W short term), Sensitivity 91 dB @ 1 watt/ 1 meter, Frequency Response 80Hz - 20kHz +/- 3dB.
- 1 X SRS Labs Center Speaker, 4-ohm, up to 80W long term, Sensitivity 90dB / W / m, Frequency Response 100Hz – 20,000Hz / ± 3 dB.
- 1 X Denon powered subwoofer model DSW-40 (8" woofer, downfiring, 37lb).
I realize that this speaker setup looks kinda strange with the brand mixing and such, but the Kefs and Klaymans really do complement each other with their respective sound signatures.
I'm worried that my speaker setup with its 4-ohm and 6-ohm elements is potentially straining the RSX-1056, and was considering adding a 5-channel amp. It would be either the Rotel RMB-1075 or the Outlaw Audio 755. This would also give us more power/headroom if we change out any of the speaker pairs in the future.
If it were you, would you add one of these amps to the system? If so, which one would you choose and why please?
Thanks in advance to all that reply...
