Need help... Need to know if my receiver is strong enough to push my new speakers

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Hello,

I am a big fan of home theater setups so I did some research and ended up getting some Definitive Technology BP7004's and a CLR2500... haven't gotten rears yet. Anyway, I have been reading that DT Bipolar's need a very powerful receiver in order to play well. I currently purchased a Pioneer Elite SC-35 and I am wondering if that will have enough power to push the speakers or am I going to need to get some amps for it? The Pioneer comes with 140 watt ICE amps per channel and I was hoping that would be enough but now i'm not sure. I just ordered it a few days ago so I haven't received anything yet so I haven't yet had time to fool with it. The room I currently have is about 15X15. Any recommendations would be appreciated, thanks!

140w should be more then enough to drive those speakers to reference level and higher. They are very efficient so just crank it up and enjoy.
