Hi ,

How do we know which speaker is good for which Amp/Rec.. or vice-verse?
Different way of asking How do we know which Amp/Rec is compatible with which speaker.

What things(tech specs) we need to match before considering.

Hi,

Please go through the below thread. You will get some idea.

Power matching - Speakers and Amplifiers

Generally the first thing to look for is the impedance matching. For example, if your amplifer's impedance is 8 ohms, then you should consider for the 8 ohms speakers. Second thing is the wattage in RMS. Other things like whether floor standers, bookshelves, or stand mounts depend on your budget and space available.

More important is what speaker appeals to u!!!!!!! Hear and approve the speakers. Electronics will follow too. Its not too difficult really.
