You would be amazed at how low the Kestrels will go, probably 90% of the Shearwaters. I would also say that the Kestrels are slightly easier to place and actually throw a slightly wider soundstage. That said, I own HR Shearwaters because I think overall they are more refined sounding and have that little extra umph in the low end that I can appreciate in my room. If your looking to save some money, give the kestrels a try, you will be surprised at the performance. Both are great with tubes by the way. Hope this helps
Kestrals vs Shearwaters
Hey there Meadowlark experts, I have a question for you: My listening room is 11X14 w/ 10 ft ceilings. My amp is a Mesa Tigris Integerated (25wpc) with a Cary CD 303. Given the size of my room and the equipment, which model of Meadowlarks do you recommend - HR Shearwaters or HR Kestrals
