anybody driving Gallo Ref 3's with SET?


while waiting for the SA to ship, I decided to see if my flea weight SET amps could drive my Ref 3's...

I am blown away! can't wait to put the SA on the bottom end of this combination...

(Dared VP 300b amps, rated around 7 watts)

Have you checked out the new Ref III's?I wonder if they can run on same low power.I miss my Ref II's but have a nice German semi horn the Odeon Tosca.But I think next time I am going to go back to a speaker like the Audio Physic or B&W that is more dynamic than the Gallo's or the Odeon's.Then plans are to get a pair of Omega speakers for a grand and go with SET in the second system.

I'm running mine with custom built 12 wpc SET monoblocks (845 output tubes) and have PLENTY of power. Am using a Hsu 500A (500w) subwoofer amp on the bottom, crossed over at 43 Hz. Amazing speakers. Good luck, Dave.
I just put a set of 25Watt VTL Tiny Triodes on my Gallo Reference II's and they sound pretty amazing. Bass is not totally defined and a bit rolled off, but transparancy, speed and soundstage are great.
