Kain Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Specificially Wyred 4 Sound amps. I've read/heard that ICE amps don't like low impendence loads. Will they be OK with the RF-7's 2.8 ohm swings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psg Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Ask them via email. They say stable to 4-ohms, which is a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Can't speakf for Wyred 4 Sound amps, Pioneer ICE amps work well with Klipsch. All of the SC models are four ohm stable if you look at the bench test. Example: SC 35/37: http://www.hometheater.com/content/pioneer-elite-sc-37-av-receiver-ht-labs-measures ICE amps are very stable for powerout/impedance load and run relatively cool. Many of the high end amp makers are coming out with class D amps due to the increase power handling and overall performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K5SS Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I am running my RF-3 and RC-3 with my SC-35 and I couldn't be any happier. I have tried to talk myself into a shiny new XPA-3 for over a year now but just can't talk myself into it. I love buying new gear but this receiver drives these speakers so loudly and cleanly that I just can't pull the trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 ditto on ice/heritage, I would expect the reference line to be even better... the floor is extremely black with this combo. the only issue I have had is that when I added a pre amp for my turn table it added a bit of hiss... NOT the ice amps fault. If you are so inclined with a class D, I would not hesitate to purchase ICE and enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHASLS2 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 My Pioneer Elite SC35 AVR did welll with my whole RF7- RC7 and RS7 setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wboffthelake Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 My SC-37 runs my RF-83s, RC-64 and RS-52s quite well. Lots of detail and smoothness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ousig Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 my dad has a Pioneer SC55 with my old KLF20s and the KLF center - they sound as good/loud/clear as I have ever heard them. We have played movies at full volume on the receiver w/o a hint of distortion and after about 20 minutes the receiver was barely even warm...it will be my next upgrade for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
