Choosing which Crown AMP to help my Russound whole-house system

11 December 2012 - 06:41 PM

My Russound MCA-C5 only has 40 Watts per channel and my living room will have six (6) of these Klipsch speakers:  

Klipsch CDT-5800-C II In-Ceilling
Nominal Impedance: 8 ohms compatible
Power Handling: 50W RMS / 200W Peak
Recommended Amplifier Power: 100 W
Sensitivity: 95dB @ 2.83V / 1m
Weight: 7.4 lbs. (3.36kg)
Wire Gauage Accommodated: 12 ga

My question is which Crown Amp should I purchase and how should I wire the speakers?  Should they be wired in parallel or series?

Thanks for your suggestion.
