Look at Klipsch speakers. They are usually higher efficiency. How far will you be sitting from the speakers? I have a 25 watt amp that sounds beautiful with 89db speakers.

That's one thing I hate...people who think they're playing their music loud when it's just laced with distortion! Usually when I'm getting ready to go to a party, while ironing my clothes, I'll throw on some good music to get me pumped up...and it's gotta be loud! Can't play Lil'Jon & the Eastside Boyz at a low volume; it's just wrong! I also sometimes have people over just "chillin" and we like our music loud. Of course this is only with rap & some club music. Other times I just like to see how a certain song sounds loud. Aside from that, I could care less about loud music. I'm primarily focused on quality though, but I don't want to not be able to get crazy sometimes! |

And about money...recommending it cause it's cheap. Let's say someone recommended a $1000 amp that only did 5 watts. That's what I'm trying to get at. |

There is no reason that you could not use a great source and great efficient speakers [moth cicadas or horn speakers for example] and have an awesome system that can go quite loud. |
