[QUOTE="El Ropo, post: 1018809, member: 561863"] Ov2s will work fine off the Nine.1, but for the 6500s, I'd got with a Nine.2 over a Nine.4. The Nine.2 was basically designed from the ground up to go with the 6500s' 150 watt rms power handling. If you powered 6500s with a Nine.4, you would run the risk of blowing the comps. The Nine.4 realistically, probably puts out closer to 225-watts rms per side when bridged, and that's a bit too much juice for 6500s. I own the 6500s, and am pushing prolly 130 watts rms via my old soundstream D200II. The result is pretty warm and loud at the same time. These speakers handle all types of music and never skip a beat, I'd recommend them to anyone who has room for an oversized 6.75" midbass and plans on running 75-175 watts rms of clean power. The highs are very laid back, yet accurate, no listening fatigue at all. The mids put out gobs of good midbass, and sound amazing in the midrange area too. A truly world class pair of comps IMO. The tweeters are the smoothest, and most musical I've ever heard, besides the top end stuff like Seas, Focal, Dynaudio, etc. [/QUOTE]
