I'll give you a quick low down of my 'system'. I own a Rotel Ra-314 (vintage, I know) and with it two Wharfedale XP2 shelf speakers.
Specs are as follows
Rotel: Power output: 25 watts per channel into 8Ω (stereo)
Speaker load impedance: 4Ω to 16Ω
Wharfedales: 6Ω @ 25 watts each
It seems that one of the speakers has blown (don't think it's the amp) and I'm thinking about replacing the subwoofer.
I just need you tell me if this would work, I was looking at a cheap woofer

If I just replaced the current (blown) woofer with that would it work?
My only speculation is that the watts are different so will it under power the speaker?
I'd also like a louder system but I don't think this would be possible without buying a new amp. Could it be possible?
Thanks
