High power amplifier and small speakers??


As a general rule could one say that sound quality is diminished by using a powerful amplifier (150 w/ch into 8ohms) with small speakers (high sensitivity)? Would detail be lost at lower volumes? I am curios because I am planning on upgrading my amp but have small speakers (may upgrade later)/

Quality, not quantity is what counts.
Some 150 watt amps will sound like junk on any speaker while others will bring out the best in them. What do you have?
The size of the speaker does not matter. High sensitivity speakers can work with small or big amps. Detail will not be lost at lower volumes with a big amp. The quality of the sound will depend on how good the amp is, not the amount of power. In your case you will only be using the first few watts.
