I thought I had saved pics, but my computer skills are poor at best. I will have to look around to see where those files may be.
At 90 db and a stable 4 ohm load, they are easy to drive with any moderately powered amp, tube or S/S.
I use 100 wpc S/S monos, http://www.paradoxpulse.com/our-products
They have worked well with amps from 35wpc to 200wpc. If you like to listen to orchestral crescendos at full tilt, I would recommend at least 100wpc.
I always inquire as to weather or not the system inverts phase as many pre amps do.
It surprises me how many people don't consider absolute phase when setting up a system.
Setup requirements are nothing special, I like 7 or 8 feet from center to center of the speakers and at least that much or more to my listening chair.
I like the speakers distance from the wall to be a 3rd or 5th or 7th of the room length.
I want the speakers toed in directly facing me. To adjust for proper toe in, I use a laser pointer mounted to a straight edge to place against the speaker, which allows precise alignment to a center point on the back of my listening chair where my head rests.
Once the speakers are playing music, I have a few go to disks to dial in the subs, to achieve the proper balance.
