The small studio I work in has the opportunity to pick up a pair of
Wright passive monitors. Wright (now defunct) suggested 250 watts per
channel minimum to drive these monitors. We currently have an Alesis
Matica 500 (150 watts/channel at 8 ohms). At some point we would
upgrade to a better and more powerful amp but i'm wondering if in the
mean time we're asking for trouble using this combination. The
monitors would be used in a near field setup in a very small control
room at resonable listening levels. I know we won't be squeeing the
best out of these monitors with this amp but i'm more concerned about
damage to the speakers. Any thoughts...
