Will I get the performance with the speakers that I just purchased for the Zen integrated 6 watt per channel amp? I just got these speakers and hope to recieve the zen in a few week. Klispch 3 speakers.

I can't speak for this particular combo but i have a 10wpc el84 amp on my Klipsch Quartets which are similar and it works very well.

Looking to get my mini torii hooked up to the quartets i expect it to really rock

Alainjoel,

Welcome to the forums.

I don't have the Klipsch Heresy III (99db sensitivity), but I do have Omega Super 3Es which are (94db) with the SE34I.35.

I also listen desktop nearfield (3ft). I found that the SE34I.3 has plenty of muscle even when I move back to 6 feet (for testing which I won't get into here). I, too, was concerned whether they would have enough power with my speakers. All my doubts disappeared almost immediately after I turned the Rachael on and listened for the first time. I mostly listen to movie scores, classical and pop/jazz vocals. I rarely have a need to go above 10 clicks on my dual stepped volume controls (half way). The meters never budged and stayed at about 38/39 even on loud movie soundtracks.

Unless you are listening at more than 8 feet and like your music loud, or perfer the type of music that most like to play loud, I'd say the Rachael will do just fine. I think you're going to be very impressed. I was.

You will have plenty of volume.

I have a new SE34. I don't have Klipsch 3 speakers, but have 89db horns and 94db bookshelfs and both of them are loud enough. I hear more dynamics in the 94db speakers though.
