Hi ASR,
I’m interested in getting a 2 channel amp for some Chora 826 speakers I’m planning to buy and I don’t quite understand the speaker's amp recommendations.
The Chora is 8 Ohm nominal and 2.9 Ohm minimum with a amp recommendation of 40/250W.
I am considering a Buckeye amp, but don't understand how to reference the buckeye amp specs to the Chora 40/250W recommendation
Thanks in advance for offering an help to a newb.

p.s Is the Chora amp rec. of 40/250W assuming at 8 ohm (like the amp rec. always is at nominal impedance)?

- For example the HYPEX NC252MP is 180W@2ohm, 250W@4ohm, and 150W@8ohm
- I assume the most this amp can output is 250W, which is at the Chora's upper recommended limit
- Versus the Purifi 1ET400A which is 425W@4Ohm, 225W@8ohm
- The 4 Ohm is above the recommended limit but the 8 ohm is within, so bad or good?
- Versus the Hypex NC502MP which is way above 250W at every impedance
- So just too much?
