Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please

Those Kenwoods have alot of power, 300 for the L09 and 150 for the L07, but they will not produce the current needed to drive the Kappas.
New amp or new speakers, or listen at low levels.
Back to Jtiesel... I believe the Coda amps will drive these quite well and are nice sounding amps. Call Doug @ Coda, they will shoot you straight. Tim

Thanks,
I will be moving on, No Kappas in the house .
While I am sure they sound great with the right amps
there just not worth it for me.

Thanks for your input.

Jtiesel2,

get a class D, 2 * 1000 watts on 4 ohms from a dealer to try at home

and then tell us ... I think you will have a nice surprise

It depends on what you want and what your financial straight is. Any high quality solid state amp will do the job.

I would recommend that you try new amps, becouse they easily surpass the preformance of the loudspeaker.

I can recommend the Modwright KWA150 one amp or if you have to money you can use a pair to drive the Kappa 9's.

If you biamp I would certainly encourage you to use a vaccum tube amplifier for the midrange and tweeter like the older Sonic Frontiers Power 2 or Power 3. If you use another tube amp, make sure that the output transformer has two ohm or one ohm windings.

To make it sound that good you might spend not less money, becouse the amps I mentioned are not really cheap at Audiogon.

@Rrog:
Most people believe the sound of the amplifier will be degreated becouse of the 0.78ohm load. However, some people met Arnie and he always pointed out to use tube amps, becouse they changed the sound and linearity dramatically due to the impedance cruve.
They will sound better will any high powered solid state or tube amp. It is absolutely incorrect when a power amp can deal with the load that the sound will be degrated. This loudspeaker can react extremely fast and with the right amp I beleieve there is no loudspeaker down to that price range that can play in the league.
I have already heard loudspeakers in the 100 000$ league but it seems that alomost none can come close to the Kappa 9's.
If you have built them up new, remove the polyswitches you will hear what this loudspeaker can really do. I have already heard the Genesis 5 and that loudspeaker is close to that.
I have tube eletronics and solid state eletronics and I have never heard anything that could beat a Kappa 9. They may only be topped by Genesis and the RS-1 or IRS Series.
