Eli,
Thanks a bunch for your thoughts. I feel pretty confident that an 8 watt SET amp will drive the De Capo's well. They are rated at 92 db efficient and an 8 ohm load. Also, they have no crossover besides a capacitor on the tweeter so a complex crossover isn't sucking up power, either. The owner's manual says that "only a few good watts" will make the speakers sing and that "excellent results have been achieved with low power, purist amplification." So I think I'tll be okay. My room is also 16x11x8, closed and not huge.

I ran the De Capo's in a 12 x 10 x 8 home office with 2 watts of 45 power and they sounded great. Either of these amps should do just fine.

  Thanks for the feedback, Rick!
