Let me start by saying that my dual 25-31cs package with amp is setting in Denver right now and it won't be delivered to my house for another 4 days. UGH!!
Now the topic.
I have an Outlaw 1050 with Klipsch KM-4 mains, KM-c center and KM-2 surrounds. I love the sound of these speakers and don't really want to lose them. I purchased them new on Okinawa for an unbelievable price.
The upgrade bug is biting and I would like to purchase the Outlaw 750 amp. From reading all the reviews about this amp it looks like quite the Bang for the Buck. SVS and Outlaw; great companies, great customer service, great prices.
I fear though that my speakers won't be able to handle the 165w RMS. The KM-4's are rated at 65w RMS, KM-c is 75w RMS and the KM-2's are 50w RMS. At times I will listen at near reference levels. They handle the 1050 just fine and sound wonderful.
I tend to listen to music and movies at much louder levels than the rest of my family. I want to feel safe in knowing that if I decide to crank it up it won't smoke check my speakers. And I don't turn it up enough to clip or distort. I like it loud, not distorted.
So...will I be looking at a possible upgrade of speakers?
HT...It is soooooooo addicting!
