Those look like 8 ohm speakers. Can you look in the back and tell the specs as how many watts and ohms? I can help you better with that info.

if you don't need them also to make mix/mastering, then they could be ok

Thank you for your answers. Yes their impedance is 8ohm,
max input power 200W,frequency range 40hz-20khz.

I would like also to mix some beats on it. Or just to get them to sound right before i give them to artist. If speakers are not good for mixes I would like to get good amp for them and then to sell them.

Yamaha ns10m is my goal.

Thanks one more time.

8 ohms and 200w.

Ok that means 8 ohms and 200 watts will need an amplifier that can produce 400 watts into an 8-ohm load. For the pair of speakers you have, the amplifier should be producing 400 watts per channel into 8 ohms.

Avoid amps with lower wattage which produces static and avoid amps with larger than 400w which will blow your speakers to the moon.

Which type of amp is up to you. You now have knowledge :D

If your using the speakers more for production you're prob gonna want some flat, studio monitors. You dont want to reference material on speakers that enhance the sound.

Not saying that your speakers are junk. Just something tp think about.

I seen dudes make dope music with blown speakers they picked up on side of street.
Also heard some slop stuff from dudes with really high priced gear.
