Unknown Speakers - Need help

Hi there, a very silly newbee question!

A building was prewired and had in ceiling speakers installed a while ago, but all I have been left is this sheet. I want to add an amplifier to these speakers in order to play background music through. There are 4 speakers.

Does anyone know what sort of speakers they are, and what sort of amplifier would work with them

Thanks!

They look like high sensitivity, speakers and pretty much any amp should drive them.

I guess it depends on your budget and needs.

I would recommend a Sonos ZP120 which will happily drive all four speakers and gives you spotify/napster access plus you can use a NAS drive to store your files on.

Thanks - I found them on the inter web. They are 16 ohm apart audio speakers, so if i wire them in parallel, they will run from a 4 ohm amp? How would i wire in parallel to a single channel?
