Spendor for AV amp

[Sliced Bread]

Hey folks,

I've had a (music only) demo of a pair of Splendor A3s and considering making an AV package using 5 splendor speakers and my.monitor audio raw12 sub.

So far I have only listened to them on a different amp. I have a home demo coming up, but cannot demo all the speakers together for practical reasons.

The stats suggest that the A5 / A3 these are a fairly difficult load. Do you think my Onkyo 905 will be able to drive 5 of them simultaneously, while still having enough reserve for decent dynamics?

Thanks for any input

Sorry for splelling and punctuation.mistakes. I'm posting using a phone.

I'm not familiar with your amp, so if you don't get an answer you may ask the dealer (if your using one).

Sorry can't be more help

Will you be using just the A3's or will you be using a subwoofer as well?

Thanks everyone.

I will be using an rsw12 as well.

I'm undecided on the A3 or a5 (room is about 15*14 ft). I'm just concerned that without additional power amps they may sound a bit flat when driving 5 speakers, with notoriously difficult loads.

The 905 is a powerful amp, but do you think it has enough juice for this big task?

Thanks.
