This is an interesting discussion. My immediate query is why are there out there sensitive speakers and insensitive speakers? I have no audio technical knowledge but I do know from reviews of speakers that apart from what they have in common in regard to most different brands, the approach to their design in some aspects are always slightly different in some way; its like the designer of each brand thinks he or she knows best how to create the perfect speaker. However from my limited experience if one tested different speakers and amp with power (some oomph) in comparison with amp of lesser power, the amp with power will more likely show the individual 'talents' of each different speaker while the lesser power amp may not give the 'full sound' with some of the speakers.
Is powerfull Amps only for low sensitivity speakes?
Dear Friends,
The general amp advice for the speakers 92+ db sensitivity speakers are mostly low power amps and mainly set or pp tube devices. I wonder if you have any experience with a setup of high sensitivity speaker with 100+ watt amplifier.
My speaker is va sarastro 2 and at the moment driving it with accuphase a60 power amp. I've an opportunuty to buy Arc Gs150 amp with a good deal.
thanks for your comments
