I have Definitive Technology BP 30'S and Yamaha AS 2200 Integrated amplifier they seem to sound really good, are the a good match for the Yamaha AS 2200
I had them since 2000 and sold my Klipsch Cornwalls 2s for 300,$. I just didn't have room for them and I was getting into home theater back then. Bought a Pioneer Elite rear projection Boston rears and Peradym center. Thanks for infermarating.
Well, actually, in my mind they are only a good match if you like a really bright sound.
Had a pair of BP10's years ago. They did not last long in my system. How Sandy Gross voiced a soft dome tweeter to sound so irritatingly bright and edgy I will never know.
As I understand it, Yamaha gear is a bit on the brighter side on neutral so on paper would not be my choice for a good pairing.
As the AS2200 is a touch on the warm side it probably is a decent match with those older aluminum tweeters, but the BP30s can certainly be greatly improved upon. It’s a lot of speaker for the $$$ especially if you prize low bass and don’t use subs, but speakers from the likes of Vandersteen, Joseph Audio, ProAc, Usher, Totem, Sonus Faber, Clayton, etc. will offer much higher quality components and refinement and take more advantage of what your nice amp can deliver. Definitely time for an upgrade IMHO, and I’d highly recommend going out and listening to some newer speakers and/or going to an audio show to see what you might like.
