No. Unless you accidentally crank it waaay up. Having more power in reserve is actually better than making an amp strain to deliver power to a speaker, esp3ecially if the speakers are hard to drive or have a very low sensitivity or need more current to come alive. Sit back and enjoy. Just don’t go crazy with the volume. You’ll likely start hearing some strain and compression from the speakers (and your ears) before you "blow" them.
Exceding recommended power rating
Hi Folks,
I have a question about power ratings of speakers.
I have purchased a pair off Dynaudio Focus 360's which have a power handling rating of 300 watts at 4ohms.
The amplifier I would like to use with it is a Conrad Johnson Premier 350,which has a out put rating of 350 watts into 8 ohm's,and 600 watts into 4 ohm's.
My question is simple.Is the amplifier going to blow my speakers even if I never play it very loud?
I have seen reviews on here and other places where the reviewer has said they thought these speakers could take even 1200 watts.
This amplifier fits what I'am looking for,I just want to make sure I don't ruin my speakers.
thanks
