I have a pair of 30w max speakers, I was wondering if this amp would have too little power for these speakers?

the sensitivity is the key word. you would need a speaker with 93db sens. at least...96db is bether... check your speaker sens.on the label on the back if it is under 92db you should consider much more powerfull amp.

I couldn't tell you about the wattage, but I will say that the only complaint I have about this amp is that it doesn't get very loud. Its part of what attracted me to this item in the first place (my little kids have blown more than one pair of speakers by messing with the volume knob on my former, way over-sized amp when it was off) but I maybe I wish it still went just a little bit louder?

That depends on the impedance and make up of your speakers. The amp has only one channel but also allows you to bridge your load to recieve max power..

It should be fine. They can only handle 600 watts of maximum power so just don't turn your amp above halfway and you should be fine.

Absolutely. The specs sheet info is aimed for 8 ohm speakers, therefore it should not have any problem powering 4 ohm speakers. By the way, wiat a power suply rated at 36V the max power rms it can deliver is 80W (40W per channel) if using 8 ohm speakers. If using 4 ohm speakers it should be able to deliver 160 W, but that would probably blow your speakers!

It's gonna be too little. I have a 2200 kenwood d block amp on it at the momont and it knocks that off. So you may need more power then that

You haven't provided all the necessary information to receive a worthy answer. We understand you want to power a pair of dual 15" speakers at 8 Ohms, but that's all we know. Complete your research by finding out the power handling ability and capacity of the speakers. Then, look again at the outputs that the amp is capable of. Your answer is then looking right back at you. I assure you this: Relying upon a bunch of people you do not know for answers to questions like this is going to come at a cost. You have no idea that they know anything about which they speak.

If your speakers are powered these don't work.The 40 watt output is about 12-15 watts. This is a personal amp for just you at your computer. The 120 watt Pyle which is really about 50 watts .

Not a good idea, running them in series wouold give you the same current through each speaker, which would still burn the smaller ones. If the speakers will handle at least 80 watts each speaker you can use this amp to power them at lower volume, but if they are 2 - 10 watt speakers don't try it. They should be labeled as to what power rating is for each.

an 800 watt amp might be a little overkill to drive two of these. I run two of mine on a 400watt pyle marine amp and I can max them out. I just used a regular 16 gauge speaker wire. They sound great!

The short answer, yes. If you look at the spec sheet for this amp you will see that it IS rated to run a pair of 2 ohm speakers in stereo. With a 2 ohm load the amp is rated for 150w x 2 RMS. This exceeds the ratings on your speakers. If you just turn the gain down a bit and keep them at reasonable levels you should be fine.

Nathaniel,A 4500 Watt may be just a little bit too much overkill for these speakers. They run at about 8 Ohms and 2200 Watts so in my suggestion a 3000 watt amp at the absolute highest. Remember you don't want to overpower and blow out the speakers but you don't want to under power and damage them either.

This Amp will put out 480 watts RMS power on a 4 Ohm cabinet load. It is possible that the amplifier could blow the speakers that were used but there are MANY more factors that could cause this to happen. Thanks Kam.

Hello there this is a pasive speakers. Not power supply need it. The more important think is rhe maximun power level of your amplifier. I use for surround and the performance is great. Regards from Spain.

I have a peavy amp 130watt per channel totals of 260watt for both channels, will my amps able to crank up these speakers?

Speakers are 300W continuous, 750W program and the Recommended Power Amplifier: For maximum SPL: 600W to 900W @ 8 Ohms. The amp puts out 1050W Bridge-Mono at 8 Ohms. So I think 1 amp for 1 speaker works fine but you would be under powered for two speakers with this amp. However I'm not sure how the recommended wattage changes with a pair of speakers and dropping to a 4 Ohms load. If max power doubles to 1200-1800 watts while dropping to 4 Ohms this amp will be in the middle with 1550-W @ 4 Ohms.

Anytime you have speakers, the amp should either match the watts or more to carry the load. Never use a amp less then the watts of the two or more. If they are a 1000 watts a peace, you need 2000 watts or more so you can get all they are made for. You welcome! They are good speakers. I have them hook up to a Boss 3000 watts amp.

After ur ?? I ran across a blog where a guy is powering a 350 watt car amp and a 12" mtx sub. "Im using a 250watt AT PC power supply that provides 10amps on the 12+v line. With this configuration I can easily power my amp and get great house shaking music now in my room." So rated at 30 amps continuous, u should have no problem. Is your input power fuse 30 amps or less? I would double check the maximum power requirements of my gear. This is not the quietest power supply, but u will quickly drown out any noise from this.
