Title: TORII Jr and Magnepan LRS
Post by DancingSea on 10/02/21 at 00:06:47

Does the Junior have enough juice to drive the LRS?

What is the minimum recommended sensitivity rating for the Junior? The website doesn’t specify.

Thanks.

It can drive them, just a matter of how loud and is that loud enough for you.

Thanks Lin, very helpful calculator. I find it interesting that the difference between a 6 watt amp and a 200 watt amp might only be 10 db....

Did you mean 20 watts and 200?

It takes 10 times the power to be twice as loud.

I played around with the calculator trying 2, 6, 20 and 200 watts. The difference between their loudness didn't seem to get much beyond 10 db or so.
