amplifier power


can anyone advise whether a cayin a-88t tube int or the pathos classic ll int are powerful enough to handle inefficient (86db) speakers in a small (13x15) room.listen to mostly rock music at moderate to loud levels . if not could anyone advise a tube or hybid amp that does. budget around 2500 max.

A good all purpose hybrid amp is the Butler TBD 2250. The new cost is a little over your $2500 budget but, they are often available on the used market for less. They sound good and, they rock with the best of them. Heck, you can likely get a new one for $2500. Try Hometheaterdoc.com
