DCM speakers for my Yamaha receiver... help me decide!
Howdy,
I have a circa 1988 Yamaha RX-700 natural sound receiver I purchased brand new in High School. I've been using a pair of vintage Altec Lansing 83 (100 watt, 8 ohm) bookshelf speakers in my 13' by 16' living room. Not great sound, for sure. I'm trying to decide which of two options I should chose to augment my sound. Both are used DCM speakers which seem to be highly regarded, especially the TF-600.
But, is my amp too under-powered for the TF-600s? Should I go for the CX-27s instead? Thought I'd ask the experts!
My Yamaha receiver has the following specs:
Power output: 65 watts/channel into 8 ohms stereo
75 watts/channel into 6 ohms
Speaker load impedance: 6 ohms to 16 ohms
frequency response: 20Hz to 20kHz
Option 1:
DCM TimeFrame 600:
recommended amp power: 10 - 250 watts
max power handling: 250 watts RMS peak
6 ohm nominal
frequency response: 30 Hz to 20kHz
OR
Option 2:
DCM CX-27
recommended amp power: 10 watts to 150 watts
max power handling: 150 watts RMS peak program
6 ohms nominal
frequency response: 35Hz to 20kHz
