So I am starting to get into separates. I just got my first stand alone amp last month. I went with an Emotiva XPA-3 to power my front stage. I have this powering my old Klipsch F2 floor standers and equivalent center channel. I am pretty sure the amp has too much power for them, as when I turn them up relatively loud, they start to distort. These speakers are rated for 100 watts RMS/400 peak and the amp rates at 200watts at 8ohms/300 at 4ohms. I'm thinking if I replace them with something better, I will be able to discover the potential of the XPA-3.
My budget is about $3K for front stage and I was hoping to get some suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
