Horning Agalmes experience


Hi all,

Interested to hear experiences of how to make the Horning Agalme sing.

System composition, room setup, etc.

Thanks.

Hi amuse18, I don’t have Agalme, but use the Eufrodite Ellipse with very good results.

First off, they need a pretty big room hopefully with a high ceiling. They don’t play well with low ceilings (overloaded bass). I have mine set far from the side walls and out into the room. The sound is very well balanced.

Use high quality components. They work very well with my 300b amps and also Class A SS. Even though they are efficient they like some power. My Pass Labs XA-30.8 really control all those woofers.

I know Jeff sometimes uses less power then 300b’s however, I think they need at least 8 watts SET or more to really come alive, IMHO.

Good luck! They are truly wonderful speaker which sound very organic and natural. They don’t have that hi-fi sound that grabs your attention at first listen, but gets tiresome after time.
