Center Channel Speakers
Nominal Impedance of the Ohms means that the ATC C6CA is a difficult to drive speaker from nominal Impedance perspective, make sure that you choose an amplifier than can provide Ohms for this speaker.
Many AVRs (audio/video receiver) in the market may have difficulty when the speakers dip below the Ohms levels (this may cause clipping or even physical damage), so we recommend to not pair the ATC C6CA with an AVR but use an Integrated Amplifier instead.

With a sensitivity level of only dB, ATC C6CA is a difficult to drive speaker from Sensitivity perspective, make sure to choose an amplifier with a high output if you like listening to your music at high volume levels. You may especially have a hard time using Tube amplifiers which are traditionally very low power compared to Class A/B or Class D amps.
