I have a pair of LFR1100 and have it hooked up to an Anthem MCA5ii amp @ 250w / channel. As my amp only has 5 channels and i wanted to give 7.1 a try I picked up a pair of AudioSource AmpOne/A @ 170w / channel.

I have tried hooking up the LFR's to both amps and to me is sounds identical. I did it more out of curiosity to see if one amp sounded better than another.

I have pondered if putting in a much larger amp would make a difference for me, and concluded that a better sounding room will be more bang for my buck. So I am in the process of building better sound for my media room.

The LFR's are one hell of a speaker and to be quite honest, I have pushed them louder than I would find pleasant listening to with no decernable distortion and my MCA5 wasn't clipping, I don't know what I would get if I upped to 500w / channel or more.
