Like Bradluke0, I have run my Lores with a 4-watt SET, a 150 watt SS and now a 20/40 watt Manley Stingray. Different flavors but sounds good with all those amps. I believe that it's mostly due to the Lores being such an easy load that amps loaf along and sound their best.
Efficient speakers with high powered ss amp?
Relative newbie here, so forgive me for the stupid question. I'm wondering if, in general, it's a mistake to mix 100 watt+ per channel amplifiers with efficient speakers. I know that low powered tube amps need efficient speakers, but do efficient speakers then necessarily perform better with less watts?
I'm looking for speakers that would be a good match for my Odyssey Khartago, and have always been under the impression that higher efficiency speakers are better than inefficient speakers. Would a 98db, 200 watt speaker be ok with the 110 watts per channel Khartago, or should I look for something less efficient.
Apologies, I tried using the search function to look this topic up, but didn't get any results, so I appreciate your thoughts and advice.
