4 OHM minimum but more like 3.5 ! Even if your older brother can drive you . Please make sure to double check with your receiver before driving or buying these !

100 watts into 4 ohms will drive these fairly well, but the more power you give them the better they sound. Very accurate, with impeccable imaging. Theres a reason these speakers made history.

Generally, the review consensus seems to be that this ELAC is more neutral sounding and nuanced which I think would lend itself better to Jazz/Classical while the Klipsch, also well liked and reviewed, has a more engaging and fun tonality. That said, I'm sure there are many people that would prefer listening to Jazz/Classical on Klipsch as it's a matter of personal preference.

These are going to absolutely sing as long as your amp drives them well. ELACs are kinda power hungry and 6ohm as well. But these sound beautiful with jazz. Lacking a bit on low end for pop music but for your purposes you would be very happy.

I have M Audio AV40. And I thought these sounds good as it can be for computer speakers. How much better are these speakers for music and gaming?

Elacs sound great, just need a heavy amp to drive them. Superb speakers.

I haven't heard Klipsch 600M but the way I know their sound to be, definitely these. Make sure you have an amp with oomph. These are neutral and good for long listening sessions. Also driver design puts these in a different category compared to Klipsch.
