I have had my 12's for a few months and was wondering from other owners of these speakers what they have discovered to be a good amp for them? My current amp pushes 165 watts. Seemed to be plenty when I pushed two Monitor 70's with it.But now I am wondering if I need more power.My current ideas consist of Marantz mono block ma-70's which push 200 watts or carver 1.5. my third choice is to get another Onkyo M 504 and run one to each speaker. Thanks for all help. Darryl

    I run a parasound 1500a 205 wpc for the three 7's and run my recievers 100wpc for the mid and highs with very nice results.

    Tomorrow I am picking up a carver 120wpc that I will be running the upper section with.Hoping it will sound even better.If not it will be going to surround duty.
