I live right near Aerial Acoustics and have heard them on many occasions and I have to say that they are probably the easily load out there. They are 4 ohms but are basically perfectly flat. I have had success as well with a 70 watt Conrad-Johnson Premier 11a tube amp. But I have also heard them with a 350 watt Levinson. And I have to admit. That if your buying these speakers for what they do best, which is playing full scale orchestra pieces such as The Pines of Rome at orchestral levels then more power is always welcome. It makes the speaker sound more relaxed. I've been able to clip a 600 watt Krell with these speakers at peaks before. But then again I'm satisfied with a 70 watt CJ tube amp. So its just up to personal perferance on how loud you listen to. but either is okay
Great amp for Aerial 10t's
I am seriously considering purchasing the Aerial 10'ts. After reading that you must use very good quality ancilary equipment with these speakers, and considering that they can be somewhat bright with the wrong amp, can anyone recommend a pre and power amp that will make these speakers sing?
