    Compatible speaker selectors for Beomaster 7000

    I need a speaker selector for three pairs of speakers.  My amp is the Beomaster 7000.  It is rated "Long-term max output power IEC: 2 x 110 W / 8 ohms".  I was looking at the Niles ss-4 however in speaking to their support people they recommended against it as it is only rated for up to 100 watts.
    Does anyone have a recommendation?  Thanks.  Dan

    They will be absolutely fine. The Beomaster 7000 has what I would regard as a 55W per channel amplifier. The problem with speakers will usually be driving them with an inadequate amplifier rather than too powerful a one. I run my Beomaster 4400 through BBC LS3/5As which are supposed to be powered with amplifiers of no more than 25W! Never had a problem even at high volumes. The 4400 is more powerful than the 7000 (I have both).

    As Peter says - on top of that, I can hardly see anybody genuinely using 110w long term. Most of the time you'll be using less than 15w!.
