Small SEAS Thor Equipment Pairing (Help)

c5z06 · 28th January 2010, 08:26 PM

Hey Folks,

I am about to build a set of the Small Thor's and was wondering if I am going to get horrible sound out of them with just a Marantz SR6004/7002/8002 Receiver? I would like to stay under $2,000 on whatever is driving them.. If this simply isn't possible then I may have to change my plans. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ben

Assuming your using the crossover in the link provided, they are a fairly benign load. Your receiver should work fine. In fact, I am running mine with a Denon receiver and they sound as good as with Rotel separates.

Thanks a ton for the reply, Jim. I can't wait to get them built using your crossover design and scott/dave's cabinet design. Thanks again for all the resources.
