   Through an estate sale I recently came into two monoblock 9W KT88 Qucksilver   
   Amps and two Mcintosh XR 1051 speakers. I have connected them together but   
   the amplifier is severely underpowered for the speakers.   
      
   **No surprise.   
      
   I need some advice.   
      
   ** Get speakers  INTENDED for use with an SET amp.   
      
      
   Should I get smaller bookshelf speakers to match the amp   
      
   ** See above.   
      
      
   w a sub or just EQ the speakers for some heaver low-end response?   
      
   ** Madness.   
      
    Buy a decent amp for the McIntosh speakers - 50 wpc at least.
