Amplifier Question

For the Reference Monitors, you really don't need a lot of juice (but having extra never hurts)... I have found my various Tylers (I own both the Taylo Reference Monitors, and the original Linbrook Signature System -- and have owned the Linbrook Signature monitors) to be very revealing of amps, however. I have not tried Classe with them, but my best results so far have come after pairing them with CODA electronics. That combo definitely works for me, I am hopeful the Classe combo works for you.

Good luck,

Firecracker,

I am driving Taylo Ref monitors with a 75 watt Electrocompaniet AW-75. It is plenty of power for these speakers and the relaxed nature of the amp is a nice match for the neutral presentation of the Taylos. Be aware they do not have much bass below about 40hZ so a sub is need for full range.

I agree with R_f_sayles on the amplifier pairing of speakers without question. He is correct ..try putting just any high power amplifier on the wrong speakers and your in for a headache. Power isn't everything, finesse is more important IMHO. ;-)

Pairing an amp and speakers is the real deal, and don't forget the cables that connect the two are also important. Also, the amount of power is not the only variable to consider, although as mentioned above, too much is better than too little (like life eh?).
You have some good starting recommendations here - I suggest you look at the threads and see who's been using what with Tyler's, or give Tyler a call for their recomnmendations. Another method is to start a thread on amp speaker pairing with what you've got, and many here will try to help you out.

Snofun3 is correct about matching speakers and amplification. Power requirement and impedance load MUST be considered for optimum performance. A very expensive pair of speakers mismatched with a very expensive amplifier can be disastrous. Check with the manufacturer and/or dealer before investing in either.
