Defcon III Tower Speakers What Amp???????

[Lvnspeed]

I bought a set of defcon III tower speakers (4 speakers 4 cans) They have the Nautique Logos on the backing plates. What size amp can I drive these speakers with? What OHM are the speakers?

The Defcon III's are in 4 cans but wired in parallel in 2 sets, in essence 4 speakers in 2 cans. Assuming you still have the original Polk Momo 6.5", the speakers are each rated 4 ohm, 125w cont, 250w peak. As they are wired you're running them at 2 ohm.

Ok so they are the orgional Polk momo. So I need what size amp? 2ohm per set right?

I run my entire system with a Polk 1100.5...the 5th channel is for the sub. Two of the four other channels run my Defcon IIIs 125w at 2ohm continuous per channel. The speakers can handle more power but this is plenty loud and clean. If I was going to run a separate amp specifically for the Defcons, I'd probably get something like this JL: http://marine.jlaudio.com/products_amps.php?amp_id=467
