I have a Dynaudio contour 2.8, I listen to music in very low volume. If I use 30 watt tube amp to drive it. Will speaker be damaged by the low wattage? Thanks.
These speakers dont work well with tube amps, period. You should consider a quality solid state amp with at least 75watts-100watts. Dynaudio Contour series love power.
Thanks for all the input. So if the amp doesn't clip, and as long as I listen to music in very low volume, the amp will not do any damage to the speaker, right? Any tube amp to recommend? Thanks.
How much power does he need to listen at "very low volume levels"? According to Dynaudio, his Contour 2.8's put out 87 dB with 1 watt of input. I'm assuming that he won't even be using 1 watt, since I do not consider 87 dB to be very low listening levels. So if he is not even using 1 watt, then 30 watts should be plenty.
