What would be some decent speakers to run off an Infinity 7541a? 111W RMS x 4 @ 4 ohms 139W RMS x 4 @ 2 ohms 276W RMS x 2 @ 4 ohms I'd like to spend about $100-$200, or possibly ask for it as a Christmas present, so any ideas or website links would be great!
Shawn I/we all understand your situation. We all have been there, but to be honest, it is bad and almost difficult to match a set of speakers to an amp. May I suggest that you should get the speakers you like (first), then look for an amp to drive them.
Here is why;
You may find a speaker that fits your amps power at resistence, but you will almost always be unsatisfied with the sound of the speakers.
Trust me. Get the speakers you like first, then get an amp that will put out 10-20% more power (RMS) at the resistence you need. This will be a better matchup than trying to fit some speakers to the amps power.
I would get the speakers first, and if the amp you have now fits the speakers, great, but if it doesnt, then sell it, and get the amp you need. You will be ever so much more satisfied and glad you waited it out.
We all have financial restrictions and sometimes it seems like we can cheat the system by cutting a few corners, but in the long run we all ended up regretting it.
