Any Piega p 10 users out there?


I own a pair of P10's and have been changing equiptment frequently. Anyone found a great matchup for these? Tubes or solid state? Which sounds better to your ears? Thanks.

Great speakers Kale!!!

I love the Tenor's on them (which I am a dealer for), but if funds are limited, I would highly suggest a pair of Atma-sphere M60's or MA-1's. A true OTL works exquisitely well with the Piega's. You might contact Duke at AudioKinesis as he is one of the nicest Atma-sphere dealers I know.

What do you feel is lacking in your system with the Rowland's?
Waltersalas: As a dealer for both products, you would have no problem driving the P10's with the bel canto EVo 200.2. Monoblock bel canto's would be unnecessary. A nice tube preamp would be a worthwhile addition.

Good choices!
Allegro12: I assure you the sound of violins on the P10's is exceptional. One piece that comes to mind is Haydn's Opus 76 performed by Quatuor Msaiques. The timberal accuracy is amazing as well as the inner detail and texture of the instruments.

The caveat with these speakers is the break-in. I really was excited by them upon the first few seconds of listening, however, until there were appoximately 600+ hours on them, there was slight fatigue. Once they are fully broken in, the sound is natural and heavenly.

If you do not have a local dealer, I may be able to setup an audition for you. Let me know if I can help.
