Will an onkyo 809 power these?

Yes, with no problem. I use a Denon AVR X2000 which I would say is very comparable to the onk 809.

I have not a clue, any respectable amplifier with 20 watts RMS from 20-20KHz should do it. I use an Yamaha RX-V573, 70 watts @ 20-20K, 110 @ 1Khz (big whoop). The point is I never need a whole lot of power, read the specs, 96 db 1 Watt/1 meter, pretty efficient, up there in Klipsch RF territory and they sound better than Klipsch RF-62's. If you have a clean old two channel receiver with 50 watts x2 channels, it should be plenty for a good sized room. My listening room is 20' x 11' and along with the F12 these guys always sound great.

the 809,---- 135 watts channel should power these very well, I think as I'm using 717, --125 watts and it' fine. Good luck and enjoy.

I'm powering these using a Emotiva amp. which puts out 125 watts per channel at 8 ohms, 200 watts at 4 ohms. It is certainly powerful enough for me in my large room. You don't state what your Onkyo output is but I suspect anything over 50 watts per channel will work well unless you want to fill up a warehouse. The Martin Logan owners manual recommends between 20-300 watts.

Yes, your Onkyo TX-NR808 will power the A9s without any problems. In larger rooms I've noticed that I have to increase the volume to fill the room but even at a higher volume the A9s sound fantastic. They start to really sound good after a few weeks of use after they're really broken in.

I use mine connected to a desktop computer sound card. These are powered speakers any they will work on anything that has a line output If I remember correctly the speakers were about 20 watts which may cover a small back yard.

Plenty. Wattage is not a good measure, but the front channels are 250 RMS. Mine are driven with a mid-high-end Denon and they are crisp at high volumes.

I do and have had no issues, just awesome music. Onkyo TX-8255 Stereo Receiver Stereo RMS Power: 50W per channel x 2, into 8 ohms

Great! With a 150 rms amp, you will have no problem driving to 80hz. My Onkyo drives Klipsch towers, surrounds and this center channel. It to pushes 145 watts rms. I think it will do what you are looking for... Go for it!

the short answer is yes. you use the preouts as described in the owners manual page 11, item 18. you plug the amp into the preouts and drive the speakers with the outboard amp disconnecting the speakers from the onkyo 5010. this is fairly common practice.

Could not say with certainty since I use an Onkyo 616 a/v system. When I set up my receiver I followed the installation procedures which lead me to not over powering the small speaker. I have good volume when the receiver is at 50% on the dial - avoids over driving the micros

Definitely. I have them hooked up to a 200w stereo system from the 80's that can't do surround sound. They blow me away with music, movies and games.

these Infinity speakers will handle 75 watts. I have an Onkyo at 65 per channel @8 ohms and the work wonderfully. It is hard to beat Infinity speakers. Good luck.

I have an Onkyo TX-NR 509 and it fits perfectly. Not sure if the 8050 has the same kind of connections.

You need to power them with a receiver. You would run your computer into that.

Any normal receiver will work for these, I have them currently hooked up to a Sony reciever that outputs 85 watts per channel, they sound great but they can handle over double the power than that. To be honest, you will need something over 50 watts per channel to really drive these guys, anything over 130 watts per channel is overkill. Hope this helps.

The answer is yes with no problem. I used a Pyle 50 watts per channel receiver with mine and they worked fine! �

Yes,I believe so, just plug them up to your TV audio out and they should work with what ever you are playing.

they can be connected to any source that has the red and white RCA style jacks for an output. if you need to you can purchase adapters and cables to connect these to any line level output. they will only work on a source that is not already amplified. if you plan on connecting them to an amplifier or the speakers on the televisions then I would not suggest doing that. otherwise, yes these may work for your application.
