My buddy has a pair of B&W 603 S2 towers hat is he driving with a very old HK receiver (I do not have the model number).
I remembered someone mentioning that B&W speakers are difficult to drive with a receiver due to a large dip down below 4-ohm. The only measurement I could find was the original 603 towers on this site.
My question if the the dip happens between 60-80hz, would using a powered subwoofer with the crossover set 80hz take the stress off the receiver because the subwoofer is doing the work?
My buddy only uses the receiver for his extensive vinyl collection.
I apologize for my ignorance, but I didn't want to give my buddy advice on something I am not educated on.
