Enough To push Lsi15's?

I have a Musical Designs D-75 Amp right now that i am using to push my RT55i's, Musical Design D-75B but I am about to purchase some Lsi's. Do you think that this amp has enough power to do the Lsi 15's justice? Or do you think it would be better if I settled for the Lsi9's paired with a sub? I really dont have the money to spend on a more powerful amp.

It should do a decent job at the 15s, but I would go for something around 200wpc for them.
Also, you wouldn't be "settling" for some 9s and a sub. I think with 9s and a sub you have a lot more placement and tweaking options.LSi 9/C/FX

Agreed on 'settling', it would hardly be that.
Try it if it's what you have. If it doesn't quite float yer boat, any chance of getting a second one, and bi-amping? Looks like a decent high current amp, I think you will be o-k.

If i can get another one of the amps, i can get for $150, so do you think Biamping the Lsi9's instead of the 15's would yield a worthy improvement for $150?

If you can bi-amp, and want towers, then get the 15s. You wouldn't have to bi-amp with the 9s.
I only have about 120wpc going to my 9s, and they get loud and stay solid. I have an Arcam AVR-200.LSi 9/C/FX
