4-ohm impedance coil drivers should be quite easily driven by any average, branded amp.

The 2-ohm electrostatics and ribbon speakers are the most paranoid in terms of power amp output matching.

Y do u need such powerful amps for ur 60w rms speakers?

What amp u want get depends on ur setup?

You wan to run active upfront for the 4channel or bridge the rear for sub?

 

U just need a 60w rms x 4(4ohm) to power ur speakers.

Do not look just at the max power as the important is the rms.

Do not have to worry that the amp lacks power if u max exactly so long as u get reputable brands as most should be under rated

Just my 2cts
