Amplifiers: 61 to 90 watts

We cover 54 amplifiers rated 61 to 90 watts into 8 ohms (70W to 90W). The mainstream of stereo amplification. Comfortable with most bookshelf and mid-size floor-standing speakers in a normal room.

Watts are the most over-read number in audio. Doubling the power buys about 3dB, and a speaker 3dB more sensitive buys you exactly the same thing for free. Before shopping by wattage, try the amp and speaker matcher to see what your speakers and room actually need.

Need more? See 91 to 120 watts (50). More than you need? See Up to 60 watts (72).
