What will its performance be with two 7ohm 10w speakers? Will it be enough, or will I be pushing it into the high THD range to get decent volume?

I'd probably go with the DTA-100. I use the DTA-1 to power an 8ohm subwoofer, and it works, but is pushed to the limit.

That's a good match, IMO. An 8 ohm load will only make ~7-8 watts on this amp. You may start to see some distortion after half volume but even at that point, it's plenty loud. Just keep in mind, it's not a 100 watt amp..I had that amp connected to a pair of large 100 watt 8 ohm home stereo speakers and it did a great job! If you have a way to adjust the tone on the input audio, it'll rock! Very clean and accurate..

will power to max capacity of speakers. 15 watts clean with bigger power-supply. Not going to Rock a night club but more then enough for casual listening.

I love this amp so far. It's small but very powerful. The positive reviews say it all and was the main reason I got it. I'm pushing 2 10" kicker comps at 2 ohm. You should have plenty enough power.

Well I have it pushing four 6.5 component speakers which is four tweeters and four mid range woofers and two 6x9s and it still seems like it has power to spare. I wired the back two doors with the 6x9s making the ohm rating 2. All of my speakers have 4 ohm ratings. That's the important part. This amp can be wired down to two ohms. Basically if you put two 4 ohm speakers on one channel it becomes 2 ohms. I would say you wont have a problem with this thing. I would say wire the 3.5 and tweeters with your front 2 doors and wire the rear doors with the 6x9s. That is basically my setup minus the 3.5 Well I have it pushing four 6.5 component speakers which is four tweeters and four mid range woofers and two 6x9s and it still seems like it has power to spare.

At 8 ohms, the TP30 only puts out around 10 WPC. The Mission 700 specs call for a minimum amplifier power of 15 WPC. I am running my TP30 with a pair of Pioneer SP-BS22-LR which are rated at 6 ohms with only 85 dB sensitivity, meaning they need power to really be driven well. Not sure of the minimum power for the Pioneers, but they sound fantastic with this amp, so you may be OK, seeing that the minimum power is close. A budget speaker that's known to work with the TP30 would be something like the Micca MB42, or even cheaper, the Dayton Audio B652. Both review pretty well for budget loudspeakers, although, I would recommend going with a higher quality speaker like the Pioneer or the Micca as it will make all the difference in getting the most out of the amp. Of course, you could always try the Mission speakers with it first, and see what the sound is like. However you go, best of luck and happy listening!

Yes this amp with those speakers is a reasonable match the inuke 3000 will push 800 watts . If you back off the limiter about 1db you'll be at 600 to 700 watts and protect the speaker as well. I run mine on two 225 watt 8 inch speakers crossed with a 50 watt tweeter (450hz and up) for my upper mids and highs and it runs very well. I personally wouldn't expect a lot of low end response from your combination but I push my speakers really hard. With an inuke 6000 on 2 15s each side crossed at 125 to 450 and another inuke 6000 on double 18 each side from 40 to 125. However this will do a football field in a very small speaker footprint. Hope this helps. Yes this amp with those speakers is a reasonable match the inuke 3000 will push 800 watts .

It should work just fine. I have it hooked up to 2 Fosgate 10" subwoofer and it sounds just fine.

Yes, it is powerful enough. I have a pair of JBL studio 130 speakers hooked up to it. The speakers are 8ohms, 25-240w. They sound great.
1702531
what is the true ohm load at 4ohms and would it really push 4- 15 pa speakers with power to spare?

The amp rating is 30 Watts into 8 ohms. But I would not push the amp to its max rating. All consumer (low price) amps distort badly at max rating. You may be able to get 8 clean watts out of it. With the speakers you have 8 watts will produce sound pressure of 94 db at 3 feet. At 10 feet listening distance the sound pressure is 83.5 dB. So don't expect disco level sound with your speakers and this amp. I use this amp to drive computer speakers, listening distance is less than 3 feet and speaker sensitivity is 85db and they sound great.

Thanks for your question. This amazing sounding amplifier, at only 30 watts per channel will drive the speakers you refer to to moderate volumes but I would not suggest it for extremely loud, very dynamic music for very long term use. For background levels it will work.

i've got it hooked to two sony 100 watt max bookshelf speakers... it pushes them A LOT more than i expected... plenty more volume without distortion than i ever will use. i've also pushed a fairly good set of ceiling 100w max/p 8" woofer 2-ways and it'll push them louder than you'd want speakers in a house while still being clear.

It should sound just fine, if you plan to blast the speakers bi-wiring will def help! But it should be fine!

The 6 Ohm setting on the amp should work okay for your nice 8 Ohm speakers. Higher impedance speakers should dissipate less power and consequently might sound a tiny bit quieter than lower impedance speakers at the same volume setting. But I doubt you will notice any difference.

It would do okay. I personally wouldn't go that route. I would either go bigger by a 1000 watts or do two seperate amps. You would be maxed on the 1500w amp and the sound wouldn't be as clean. Amp would get really hot. I use it to drive 2 - 12" Solobaric L7's. I guess what I don't know off the top of my head is the rating on the L3's. In addition what ohm are those speakers? I believe this amp is Ohm stable down to 2 Ohms.

I am planing on buying 2 of these subs this week & I have a Hifonics Brutus 1000 watt stable @ 1 Ohm amp ....to push these babies , am I going to run into problems ???

It will drive them but on the slight side I'm running it on a pair of 8 ohm 60w and it's great sounding. There is a slight buzz if left at max volume and dead air but other then that it's well worth the price and hides well under the computer stand.

Mr. Garrett - Technically this is a 2-channel Amp. You can easily wire 2 pairs of speakers to it however, and alternate between the two or run them simultaneously. I have run 4 6 ohm speakers this way without issue and it played plenty loud. I imagine you could easily run up to 3-4 pairs of 8 ohm speakers in parallel this way, or more if you ran them in series. But it would be safer to make sure that you used the same speaker if you were going to start hooking up tons of them (because the impedance of each would be about the same)!If you wanted to run multiple speakers off the amp, like the other responder, you could do it, provided that you keep the impedance above the 4 ohm minimum.
