I have two of these passive speakers that I would like to connect to my TV. It really doesn’t need to get super loud since I will be using it to watch tv/movies at a normal volume. My tv does have yellow/white rca audio out ports (not just audio in) as well as sigital out.

Can someone please recommend an amp and wires to attach these two with a priority on reliability and energy efficiency? I’m a noob at anything audio.

Update: I found a used amp for cheap and they both sound great!

      Yes, but most budget amps quote peak wattage, not RMS power, so even if it says 100w per channel, it might be considerably less. Ideally you get a more powerful amp and just don’t turn it up past halfway. If it’s less powerful then you’ll get clipping when it’s cranked.

      Not really. It’ll be fine. An amp that puts out 25W per speak will blow those speakers if you turn it up to max volume on a good reciever.
