I've owned my Biro L/1's for 4 years now and love'em. $1,600 factory direct, so they would cost about twice that in the regular circuit after dealer mark up. They're an easy "8 ohm" load so your amp should be ok with them. They're 87db efficient/sensitive so you'll have to decide if that'll work for you based on the size of your room and how much power you have. I'm giving mine 160wpc and rarely turn them up loud. Its a nice two way monitor with an open-air mounted tweeter. www.avahifi.com www.birotechnology.com
Newbie needing experts' advice
Hello everyone. I'm slowly fitting my system together-- now I have CJ 11a power and CJ PFR pre. Next step is the speakers, but found out that there's too many to choose from. My budget is around $1500. I'm looking into KEF Reference 3.2. Any other suggestions? I listen to lots of rock, jazz, and classical music. The speakers don't have to be "latest technology" as I have found old models to sound quite good for my taste. Oh, and WAF is pretty important too. Thanks for your help in advance...
