Hi Guys,
 
I recently ran into a good deal on a Burson Conductor and a Burson timekeeper.
 
The Conductor I have now and I must decide if I'm to buy the timekeeper.
 
My main question is;
 
Would the time keepers be able to drive the KEF LS50 monitors?
 
I have only 2 days to decide please help
 
Much apreciated

KEF recommends 20-100W for the LS50.
 
Timekeeper outputs 80W into 8ohms in stereo mode.
 
So I see no reason why it wouldn't.

I'm not very good with electronics so please bare with me
 
I just assumed as KEF says 20-100W recommended and the Burson's Max output is only 80Watts it would not be enough. At least not ideal.
 
I thought to get the best out of the KEF LS50's you would want a amp higher than 100wpc
 
Thanks for your inputs

More watts doesn't always mean better sound. The Timekeeper will probably drive your KEF speakers just fine and with plenty of volume.

but when KEF says they recommend 20-100Watts does that not mean to move the diaphragm completely they would need 100Watts ?
 
And will not having enough watts to drive the KEF's damage the Burson Timekeeper ? would it not be good for it in continuous use ?

No, the 100W is more of a recommended maximum value. The speakers will work fine with 20W, but most likely won't get very loud.80W is fine.

Thank you all for the quick responses, I decided to go ahead and buy the timekeeper
