Hello, im someone who has no real clue about Audio, but what I do know is that my TV speaker are just kinda meh.

So for both esthetic and sound purposes I thought about maybe getting 2 tower speakers like these. Its important to know that these would mostly only play Youtube videos and the occasional Series or Movie.

So one of my main questions is if something like these is either Overkill or not suited for something like youtube Videos?

I am looking at an auction that'll end in 5 hours for around 100€. What do the experts on here think?

I never said anything about listening constantly in full volume. Efficiency, size, frequency, so many things matter. A small 1W speaker can easily reach 90dB if needed, just as a comparison.

When it comes to electronics, it is often the same with mechanics. There are inefficient and efficient areas. You can drive you car in the first gear to 30km/h at 8000RPM or you can use the third gear at 2000RPM. The result is the same, but since one is more efficient, you have less issues with e.g. heat which ages electronics a lot. So I‘d rather go with a 100W per channel amplifier and have proper components to run the speakers constantly at 20-30W instead your recommendation of going with 20W per channel and then wonder why audio sounds shit. You do you.
