1) Hi, I recently read some varying opinions about what is the "correct" analogy between the speakers power and the amplifier power. I was not aware of this information before and I would like to ask for your help.
I own the Audio Analogue Puccini SE remote amplifier that according to its technical data it produces 55W at 8 Ohm or 85W at 4 Ohm. I also own Monitor Audio Silver 4i bookself speakers with their technical data mentioning input impedance 8 Ohm with nominal RMS 100 Watt and MAX RMS 150 Watt. Also it says recomended power of amplifier 170 Watt.
Having read stories and disagreements about the importance of underpower amplifier vs overpowered amplifiers and the damage these issues can cause to the speakers or the amplifier I want to ask an expert whether my setup has a serious problem of causing damage either to my amplifier or to my speakers. And if yes, then what size of speakers should I purchase.
2) I also read about the "hype"of biwiring. Is it actually a hype or does it have real benefits?
Please reply, thank you all for your time.
