Any body know of an integrated amp that is 100 watts into 4Ω ohm? Plenty in 8 ohm But can't do it in to 4 ohm.
 
Physics and electronics technical wimbury woobury says that an amplifier rated at 60w into 8 ohms max output will be around 120watts when given a 4 Ohm load/ speaker

For Real World amplifiers this sits at around 80 watts into 8 ohms to give you your 120 watts into a 4 Ohm load

Unless you are running Magneplanars which are almost a short circuit!
 
Just about any amplifier will run your speakers, that 86db is for 1 watt of power at 1 metre, 5 Watts will be at around 88db at 1 metre away from the the speaker

That rating of 100w is simply there so that you can run the speaker safety at high volumes without damage to either. It's very rare that anyone needs to go full on, any amplifier with a good quality power supply will be suitable up to modest volumes. It can then supply the current that your speakers need
