If memory serves, the SA-232 used 7591-A output tubes and produced about 30
watts RMS per channel. This is not very relevant in evaluating your
speakers, however. Examine the speaker drivers (the woofers ). Post whatever
information is written on them, hopefully make and model number. Are these
factory made "Pilot" speakers, or custom models?
