Speakers & Amplifier combination. Please help

[GArjun]

I am looking to buy these speakers:
http/cpc.farnell.com/jsp/level5/module.jsp?moduleId=cpc/634659.xml
Technical Data
VDSMB10
Speaker Size (Nom) 6.5"
Power (Max)120W
Impedance 8Ω
Frequency Response 60
Sensitivity (1W/1m) 91dB
Dimensions (Dia. x D)⌀
Weight 677

I therefore need an amp to go with it. Please could you link me to a compatible one, which would work well. Its only for the kitchen so do not need anything fancy. Something around the £10 mark please

unfortunitly the cheapest one i know of that isnt grabage and likely to break is around $25 its hte Lepai LP-2020A

Bump, Does anyone else know of any?

As Lego said Lepai or you can search for T-amps but unless you build one yourself which is pretty easy, you won't find much cheaper. Or maybe a cheap receiver at a thrift store?

That one dosnt seam to be able to take up to 60w per channel

 

[legokill101]

well that doesent mater it just limets the volume as that rating dose not mean that will draw 60w each from the amp only that they can each take up to 60w pump out by the amp

Does this one look any good, as it seams to be able to output more power

Or also this

Also check out Pyle amps. They're a bit better in quality too. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb...ias=electronics&field-keywords=pyle amplifier

If you have an amp hooked up to your PC or an extra amp laying around you could always use it if you wish to save money.

What sort of volume difference will it make between 20w per channel and say 50w per channel. As in the kitchen there is other noise, so you need a good volume

you also need to keep in mind the efficiecy of the speakers, how many Db per watt. Also make sure the power rating of an amplifier is in watts RMS. All other watts ratings that seem too good to be true for the price are likely to be PEAK watts, which mean nothing, it is a peak power in a split second that will be distorted sound. Hope that helps.
