AMP for driving NHT VT 2.4


I am trying to buy a stereo amplifier that works with NHT VT 2.4 speakers. The Amplifiers are rated at 4ohms or 8 ohms.

1. What is the speaker impedence of this speaker? I read somewhere that it is 6 ohms
2. Should I get a 4 ohms amp or an 8 ohms amp or are there such things as 6 ohms amps?
3. What is the power output these speakers can handle?
4. What is the optimal power output for them ? Would 100 watts/ channel be sufficient?

I don't have the user manual for this and support@nhthifi.com is bouncing....

Your helping out a rookie is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
-Anu

Has2be - thanks for your response - I will check out the Amps you mentioned (Musical Fidelity). Do you know anything about "Monarchy Audio SE-100" ? Do you know if they will be considered "bright" ?

I have the NHT VT 2.4's hooked up to an Onkyo TX-SR 701 - works fine for Home Theater - but I feel its missing something when it comes to pure music listening.

I have considered NAD C272, Quad 909 and now looking at the SA-100 monoblocks... let me know if you have an opinion on how these will sound with the speakers...
