Best Speaker for Ongaku


Finally purchased my dream amp, a Kondo Ongaku.
Looking for a suitable efficient speaker match for a
small-medium size room.

Some speakers I'm currently considering include ANJ's, smaller Proacs
etc. Can't use horns or large box speakers due to size limitations.

hi Jzach, congrats on acquiring yr dream amps.

you wouldn't necessarily hv to use a pair of higher efficiency speakers if yr room isn't that big (although there are still benefits in doing so). however, i/o making wild speaker suggestions w/out understanding yr tastes/limitations/etc., i suggest you try better tubes on yr Ongaku to maximize them.

good GZ34 rectifier tubes makes a noticeable improvement across the board (metal base Philips Miniwatt are the best i've tried. they are sometimes aval. on ebay, but aren't cheap).

selection of input tubes (5687 & 6072) will depend on room/associated components/tastes. as for output tubes (211), i've found RCA superior to GE (more detail & delicacy).

good luck & enjoy yr Ongaku.
Appreciate feedback. Will be looking at upgrading the valves.
Also will be looking at Ocellia's which look interesting as well
as Audio Note ANJ's.
