Re: Will the Denon AVR-4311CI be able to handle two pairs of LSI15's?
@blueskies if I may, the approach here from your last posts appear to be pressing @txcoastal1 and @nooshinjohn into a good 'ol Texas scrap with Mr AVS man, probably not the best approach.
Lets just take a look at a couple of things, first of all, nicely done on your AVR choice, lots of power (watts).
Also, Mr AVS man mentioned that your "6ohm" speakers would be walk in the park. Not sure if that was a typo but that kind of miscommunication could cost you big time since your LSi15's are 4ohm speakers.
Polk specifies: "4-ohm impedance; these speakers must be powered using high-current amplification." High powered watts are cool, but high-current is what's specified here.
I'm thinking in order to get your answers, check on high-current equipment (mentioned by nooshinjohn) and signal clipping (mentioned by txcoastal 1)
Just an observation here, when someone gives you a response by first saying his eyes glaze and gives you a rolled eyes emoji comes across as a little arrogant, but I would bet dollars to doughnuts this guy has no experience with your speakers. The recommendations given by the two members here as far as I know DO have experience with your speakers.
Most likely, the best approach here would be to contact these members and ask them of their personal experience with your speakers. I could be wrong, but my guess is that Mr AVS has never seen an LSi15 much less have the experience with them.
Best-O-luck to you.

First I've heard of it. That brings a LOT of income to the Lakes Region and I'm thinking they'd need a really good reason. Another event I haven't been to in a while. First one I rode in was 1973. Things were very different back then with roadside camping on rte106.

Re: So this just happened. 2.3TL’s
Congrats. Now you have an excuse to do another run of rings and brackets. Those who missed previous runs better get in line.

Re: Input on new integrated amp purchase
Hi Greg,
If the manufacturer specs do not include a peak to peak amperes rating you can look at the 8 ohm and 4 ohm ratings. If an amp doubles or comes close to doubling from 8 to 4 ohms it is a high current amp.
So, if rated at 100wpc @ 8 ohms and 200wpc at 4 ohms it is a high current amp.
Another aspect you need to consider is SDA speakers require a common ground amp unless you use the AI-1 or Dreadnought isolation transformer. Generally speaking, a dual mono integrated amp will not be common ground. If in doubt you can check with the manufacturer.

Re: You’re doing it wrong…
And make for some great YouTube compilations. Or The TikTok the kids are into these days.
How long before we start seeing YT fixed camera video of pedestrians who ignore "low clearance signs and walk into obstructions on sidewalks (like those 'low bridge' compilation videos)?
PS This is an artist's conception of those same people in a few decades...
