The tenors are the best amps I have ever heard and I have listened to a JL2 for a long time. There is something about an OTL tube amp that is simply magical. I think the JL2 is a great amp and for some speakers would probably be the better choice, how ever due to the impedence and sensitivity of the Talon I couldn't urge you strongly enough to try the tenors.
Verybigamp- This is hardly the first thread I have read which you posted asinine comments- I happen to be VERY familiar with what the Tenors are capable of and Mikelavigne is describing there sonic signature(yes they do have one) very well. Your less then wonderful word useage doesn't really help your credibility(which in my opinion is nill thus far), perhaps you could share with us what you feel to be a good amp/speaker combo or better yet an amp that you feel would mate up well with the Talon Khorus X, and why....That may help the users of this site far more then your attempts at stirring controversy- trolling isn't very attractive. In other words are you gonna bark all day little doggy or are you gonna bite? this site is dedicated to high end audio and those who are devoted to it and not hersey and/or assumption there of. Good day.
Mike- At CES this year I thought they were using the joule electra right of passage amps on the khorus X mkII, right? I don't think there are many speakers that could ask for a better amp then that(I like the joule amps nearly as much as I like the tenors- I did say nearly!). I don't think you could hold that amp responsible for poor bass, room, maybe but I don't think those babies would have any problem trouncing the Khorus's needs- though I have been wrong in the past. Just food for thought.... Happy listening
