Just purchased a NAD 925THX 125 watt 5 channel amp..

However, I just discovered that my FXi30 surrounds have recommended amp power up to 100 watts..will there be a problem if I hook these surrounds up to this amp...

Thanks for your help......;) ;)

    Not at all, good clean power will not blow a speaker, don't get to caught up in the speakers rated power handling.

    Monarchy Audio SE100 Delux - mono power amps
    Sony DVP-NS999ES - SACD player
    ADS 1230 - Polk SDA 2B
    DIY Stereo Subwoofer towers w/(4) 12 drivers each
    Crown K1 - Subwoofer amp
    Outlaw ICBM - crossover
    Beringher BFD - sub eq

    Where is the remote? Where is the $%#$% remote!

    No problem, they will actually send you a thank you note for providing them with honest power.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    My LSi7's (rated at 150watts/channel) are running great with my Cinepro amp. (rated at 500watts/channel)

    I did call Polk just to be sure that it was ok and they said they only knew of one instance where a person blew their speaker with to much power. In general it is much safer to go overboard with the power rather than minimize the power to a speaker.
