The Yamaha NS5000 monitor with stands are superb and don't need gobs of power to drive them well. a 125 wpc amplifier will not drive a lot of very good but power hungry speakers.
Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice
Hello All: Many of us have limited access/ability to audition multiple speakers brands. That got me to thinking- If one had a budget of $20K max, a solid state amp rated at 125WPC, and listened to all varieties of music (primarily rock, pop, folk), what speaker(s) would you be most willing to recommend to that person and feel confident they would be happy with the purchase?
