You mean an AMP for your house or for your car? Or an amp for DJing?

I mean an amp to hook up with my speakers.

Is this for your house? Dorm? or Car?

Can you tell us what speakers you have? Try to tell us the brand and model. That will help out a lot.

home...they are really huge old speakers in a wood casing that my parents gave me if that gives you any clue as to what I need. I dont need anything too fancy, but would like something decent.

I'm pretty sure just a regular home theater receiver will work for this. May want to check out craigslist for this one.

I have a perfect Denon AVR-1000 home receiver that will for sure drive them with clean power. Hit me up with an offer before I list them on Facebook Marketplace! (I work for Oodle hehe)

Check the wattage draw of the speakers before buying anything - you need to know how powerful the amp needs to be before looking in to amps.

Nope.

You wont find anything with that interface and enough juice to run those old school speakers.

Those older speakers need power to make them sound decent. Your best bet is just finding like a old school 80's-90's receiver for like 40 bucks and then hooking up a laptop to that.
