And I found this note in one of the support docs for connecting AW650 to amp: https://support.klipsch.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402681610004-AW-650-Connecting-to-an-Amplifier Note: Each AW-650 speaker will require a designated channel on the amplifier and cannot be wired in parallel. (See Image Below) The image looks like what you guys are saying, but the note confusing. Again, just wanting to be sure I'm setting things up right.

Trying to figure it out from reading stuff on the Internet or Youtube has been frustrating. I'll read one thing that makes me think it's fine having both on the same channel and another that tells me I'm gonna f up the speakers if they are underpowered. I've seen really good replies on stuff from you. Just trying to learn and get the best experience I can. Just so you understand my twisted logic, I am thinking 85 W each for the speakers for a total of 170 W. I'm connecting this into a single 100W channel. The internets tells me that when sizing speakers to an Amp you should have 1.2-1.5x the W for the channel (~200-240W). I know something in my logic is off, I just don't know where I'm messing up. Looking at all of the receivers on Klipsch's site I can't see that any of them would support 200W at 8 ohms per channel so again I know my logic must be off. I'm a willing, humble pupil 😉

I have a two channel amp that is 100w per channel. Since the 650s are 85W speakers do I need to connect 1 to channel A right and the other to channel B left?
