Ohm Walsh 2

Hello,

I am driving my Ohm Walsh 2 speakers with the Marantz SR5005 receiver and have to turn volume at 60 to filling my bedroom with music while I only need to turn volume at 30 on my Mcintosh MC275? I feel like my $2000 Marantz can't handle the speakers. Should I upgrade the speaker or the receiver since I am using the Mcintosh in the living room

The SR5005 is an AV receiver.  These receivers are notorious for not being as powerful as their ratings may indicate.  Are you using the Marantz as an AV receiver?  Also, how big is the bedroom and how loud are you playing your music and/ or movies?

The Walsh 2 are rated at 88db, so they are efficient enough.  These are older speakers, any chance they are damaged/ need repair?
