Amp Recommendation for Klipsch Forte IV
Yesterday at 20:34:32
 
I am sure the Klipsch Forte IV speakers are in use by a number of Deware users. I am wondering if folks here could recommend a model of Decware amp to pair with these speakers.

I'm in a moderate/large room 18x19 feet, with vaulted ceilings that go up to 15 feet. I listen jazz, rock, classical at all volume levels depending on the situation.

Thanks

As much as I'd like to recommend one of the SETs, I feel like if you really want to "rock-n-roll" in your room you're going to need a push-pull amp. JMO.

If what I read is correct, Klipsch Forte IV speakers have a specified sensitivity rating of 99 dB. You will want to consider the hum level of the Decware amp you choose.

I couldn't deal with the Decware 300b amps' hum with my 99 dB Omega speakers. On the other hand, my UFO25 amp sounds just as good as the 300B, and there is no hum beyond 3 feet from the speaker without music playing. I'm particularly sensitive to hum, so it may not be an issue for you or others. Still,  it is something to consider.
