Hi,
I'm posting some photos of my Polk Audio RTE series floor speakers. I wanted to find how much power I needed to properly drive the speakers (I'm assuming it's not extreme). I'd like to upgrade from my old receiver to something nicer like an integrated amplifier. The base is a plastic piece that holds the speaker up a bit for the bass.
I think these speakers are 10 to 15 years old.
PS: I can't find any numbers (model, serial, etc)
