Depends on the the speaker's efficiency, size of your room, damping in your room. You don't give enough information. If you have horn speakers (Klipsch) you can probably get away with 30 watts and be more than satisfied. Most probably for your application and your tastes (LOUD) you will probably want more power.
Could someone explain the Pass Aleph 3??
Hi all. I'm learning and learning, but there's still something I just don't get. How can an Aleph 3, with only 30wpc, power the mains in a home theater system? What will an explosion sound like in the Matrix (yes, I'll admit, I like it loud, I like to 'feel' those explosions!) with only 30wpc? I plan on having a separate 3ch amp for the center and rears. Can I buy the Aleph 3 and use it for music (sometimes loud dance music, with big bass peaks) and for movies and still get good effects? For about $1100-$1200, seems like the best amp for the $$ in my range, but am nervous about the very low power. Someone please educate me!
