Amplifier question


Recommended Posts

Guest The Bro

Hey guys I've got another pair of Aiwa speakers given to me by my dub mate GadManDubs. Now I know what you're thinking but these things are fucking awesome and sound like pro monitors. They output 120w each and have 5 way sound so they have dedicated speakers for all the frequencies. Anyways I'm looking to get an amp for them.

 

My question is if I buy an Amp with 100w x 2 output and 8-16ohms impedence will that be okay? The speakers are 6ohms impedence.

 

This is the amp I'm looking at getting.

Maybe you guys can recommend me an amp for about £50-60 as I wanna start using these speakers.

 

Thanks.

I'd say you could probably get better quality ones for the same price if you lose all that karaoke based crap at the front.

I haven't eaten a Wagon Wheel since 07/11/07... ilovecubus.co.uk - 25ml of mp3 taken twice daily.

mainly that the term "5 way sound" is completely meaningless, you seem to be confused as to how speakers work and i sincerely doubt that they sound like professional monitors.

I guess the point is that pro monitors don't ever have 5 way sound, and wattage is never really part of the important spec.

 

Real pro monitors are really baseline, and give you a good sense of the source sound with very little influence or coloration, whereas I'm sure a speaker with 5 drivers is going to add a lot of it's own character.

 

That said, unless you are really mastering your stuff on them who gives a shit. I would just pickup an amp from a second hand shop and be dont with it. :p
