Polk lsi25 and linn 2250 power amp

Posts: 3
Hi everyone
I bought a set of lsi25 a couple of months ago and finally got around to running room correction.
System : Tower speakers polk lsi25, surrounds and hieghts kef from previous
AV RECIEVER :Pioneer vsx505 acting as preamp
Power amps : linn 2250 powering the 2 front lsi25
Monolith 3 channel amp for center and surround
Problem
I run the Dirac room correction software, all speakers except the lsi25 play a normal test tone, lsi25 I don't hear a test tone even at full volume, When playing music it plays like the should.
Take the linn out of the equation, connect lsi25 to the monolith , play the test tone and room correction it works fine.
Did room Correction then re attached the fronts to the linn and center and backs to the monolith it works but there is a drop off in volume when playing test tones.
I am wondering if the linn does not have the power for the lsi25.
Any help would be great , thanks in advance

The Lsi25 is a powered speaker, I'm sure the Linn 2250 would have enough power for the top half. How does the Linn work on the other speakers? If this is only during the test tones, simple stop playing test tones....

Some info.

The minimum wattage to drive the LSi25 is 20wpc, so your Linn has plenty of power to drive them. Something else is going on.Political Correctness'.........defined
