Hey guys. Although I'm a bit tight on money I really want to get the klipsch RP150M bookshelf speakers butI can't afford an expensive amp. But I've heard that it is very easily driven and so I want to ask if I could drive them with the Lepai 2020A+ amp as a temporary solution(I'll be using it on a desk)? I heard a guy powered them with 1 watt (not sure if legit). FYI sensivity is 93db.
 
They will play loud without much power so a Lepai or similar digital amp will work. A used receiver or amplifier would be another alternative. Probably sound better.
