What is the minimum wpc that is required from an amp/integrated amp to power the Triple 12HT-LPs?

The Website dimensions are incorrect. The JTR Forum has the correct dimensions for the T12LP

They are very efficient and so require less power but if you want big SLP then some powerful amps are in order. Several owners use AVR's and are happy with the performance.
