Checked your Polk 330's and see that the Recommended Amp power is 20-150 W.per channel. I am pushing a Bose Acoustimas 5 system which is compatible with amps or receivers 10-200 watts per channel, and it's not even breathing hard. Sony output specs section says Minimum RMS 90+90 W. Stereo mode 100+100W. Surround mode 130W per channel. In my limited knowledge, I would not hesitate to buy your polk speakers. This Sony unit highly impresses me......if I put in a Maynard Ferguson (my idol) CD and crank it up, the neighborhood dogs run for cover!!!!!!! Suggestion...before you buy, check out the new Bose systems.

I am running:4xInfinity Reference 6032cf 6.5-Inch 180-Watt High-Performance 2-Way Speakers (Two speakers on Channel 1 and Two speakers on Channel 2)1x Pyle PLPW8D 8-Inch 800 Watt Dual 4 Ohm Subwoofer (Bridge Channel 3 and 4)(Running a 10" would be better since amp can run it fine)

Dieckmann, you have not mentioned what watt are you speakers. i have the same problem too but my speakers are like 40W. i am usuing my old speakers till i get a deal on a new 80-100W speakers.so maybe if you upgrade the speaker is you have low Watt ones you will get good sound at 30-40 level.hope this helps

I tried to hook to 300W x 2 speakers, and It worked well to me. I didn't turn volume all the way up just 1/4 max. because my room just 10ft X 10ft

These are really good sounding speakers but beware of the 100 watt limit. I have a little bit larger family room than noted and really like to crank up the sound at times. I am using a Yamaha RX-475 which is 115 watts and I have now blown two of the satellite speakers and I have had to replaced them with Yamaha speakers that can handle the wattage. So make sure your receiver wattage does not exceed 100 watts!!!

My speakers are rated at 125W and I have not had any issues. Even at fairly high volume my speakers sound great. Higher power generally equates to better sound and less distortion so you are probably less likely to "blow up" your speakers with this receiver.

I am not sure the exact wattage rating but my reciever puts 80w per channel and I wouldn't go much higher than that. The speakers are clear, but also keep in mind the subwoofer is not powered. I was unaware of this, when the description says "200w" I thought it had a 200w sub amp. I had to purchase a separate subwoofer. Average speakers for a low price.

As Mr. Alexander mentions there are many factors in play for how loud a speaker can play in a room with how much power. Cubic feet room size, impedance and sensitivity of the speakers are all important in the determination if a specific receiver is right for your system. Please feel free to call us at 1-866-OUTLAWS with more details and we would happy to recommend the proper competent for you.

Don't know the specs on those speakers, it really pushes 2 RF P3 shallow 10s though.300w rms 600w peak

This is a rugged amp with decent signal to noise. It is rated for 215 watts into 8 ohms dual, or 700W bridged into 8 ohms, or 350W into 4 ohms dual or 1100 watts bridged into 4 ohms. You can program the limit to protect your speakers. So, yes. Connect your speakers in a parallel bridge configuration so they show a 4 ohm load to the amp and set your limits to 600 Watts to protect your speakers.

Are the speakers 500 watts continues or peak power?, are the speakers subwoofers or 2/3 way systems? I would be cautious about connecting these speakers in the bridge mode because of the 3000 watt power output in 4ohms of this amplifier, also remember that running this amplifier in the bridged mode it should be plugged into a outlet with no extension cord with a minimum 30amp circuit breaker. Before going to the bridged mode try a mono connection it should give you enough power and be safe. Good luck.

To my understanding it's 25W. Mine was bought 2nd hand and runs a pair of 100 W 6 Ohm bookshelf speakers just fine, add an active sub if needed. There's plenty of settings and EQ to get you satisfied. One major surprise i had was, that you must have have a TV connected for both setup and use.

I am using a Yahama YSTSW012- 45 watt powered sub woofer. It is 11.25 inches high. It will rattle the walls if you want it too. I had the Yamaha and decided to use it and not get a new one.

I don't know how much performance you are looking for but mine is used to run a six speaker set with two 200w 12 in woofers - all are 8 ohm. It gives me far more volume than I could want. However the remote must have line of sight exposure to work.

this series of speaker goes in increments if you buy a 10 inch subwoofer the wattage is 1000 if you buy a 12 inch subwoofer the wattage is 1200 and if you purchase the 15 inch subwoofer then it is 1500 wattsI have 3 12's at 3600 wats combined each subwoofer is powered by its own 1000 watt amplifier needless to say you can hear me coming from blocks away hope this answers your question good luck

A good 400 or 300 watt amplifier will be ok. The speakers can not take more then 400 watts of peak power. It can cause damage.

I have a set of polk monitor 40's that are rated at 120w that work well with this amp. It really depends more on how efficient the speakers are and the size of the room.
