[QUOTE="dsw1204, post: 8777485, member: 663807"] I don't think anyone else has picked up on this, but those Germaniums are rated at 125 watts RMS. That Zapco is only rated at 65 watts RMS. You will not get the best dynamics out of those speakers being pushed with an amp maxed out at 65 watts. If you want the most out of those Germaniums, get an amp that will push 125 watts RMS, or thereabouts. That is just the way it is. That Zapco will work, but I think you would be much happier with an amp pushing a lot more power that what the ST-4X SQ will give you. That Gladen D2 150.2 would be a good choice if you are running passive. If you are running active, you'll need a 4-channel amp. You will probably have to up your budget if you want to get over a true 100 watts X 4 RMS amp. Again, the Zapco will work. But, if you want the best sound from those Germaniums (great components, by the way) you want an amp with a lot more power. [/QUOTE]
