Recommended power amplifiers
Selecting the proper amplifier size for a given loudspeaker requires analysis of the transducer long-term (or RMS) power rating, dynamic range of the input-source material (crest factor), desired sound pressure levels, and other factors. As a general guideline, the following table provides recommended power amplifier ranges for Bose Professional loudspeakers:

Model Nominal Impedance Required Channels Amp Power Rating
802 Series V 8 ohms 1 250 – 500 Watts
402 Series V 125 – 250 Watts
