The very first generation 901s were very power-hungry. I think they and the AR-LST together created the demand for the "super power" amplifiers like the Phase Linear 700. If you play music at background levels and if your music is not bass-heavy, you might do o.k. with 100 watts from a robust amplifier. Also, the equalizer box (which is a must-have) has a "below 40Hz" switch that eliminates the very low bass (which is massively boosted), so be sure and engage that switch.
If you don't already own these speakers, I agree with the others, that there are better alternatives out there. The ADS 710s mentioned, are a good suggestion. From memory, a very natural-sounding speaker.
