What kind of amplifier is this, I'd guess an Onkyo AVR? The SNR spec wasn't included in this shot.
You have about as much power as you'll ever need with these speakers (they need something like a 50 wpc). If amplifier SNR is rated 106 dB(A) or something, that should be fine, too.

Hi AnalogSteph
This is an Onkyo avr TXNR686. Currently the speakers Elac FS127 are biamped as both the speaker and avr supports it. I have attached the full manual the avr, the spec is towards the end.
Pls help understand more.

So as I thought.
Expected noise level = 2 dB(A) @ 1 m, so probably nothing much to worry about.
It may be wise to check what the speaker impedance setting defaults to. Not sure whether the NR686 still is the same, but Dad's old NR616 always ran nice and cool on 4 ohms.
