The advantage of extremely efficient speakers is that it allows you to use SET amps. I've had Avantgarde Duos for a long time, not necessarily recommending them-- they require supplemental woofers and in my experience, a change in front end- but I've been using Lamm ML2s for a long time and those amps are musical as hell. I would suggest that you consider both the speaker and amplifier because the relationship is critical. I moved from some highly regarded cartridges-- Lyras and Airtights, and it was only changing to the Koetsu stone bodies that made a real difference-- particularly in the bass region. I now have fully dimensional bass, but added subwoofers and DSP'd them to get the lower regions to accomplish what the mid-high frequency spectrum was capable of.
Seeking horn array loudspeakers with a maximum price of $17,500.00 per pair.
My system consists of the following:
- Focal 938 loudspeaker
- Bryston $B3 cubed power amplifier
- Rogue Audio RP-1 preamp
- Weiss DAC 204 DAC with Modwright Power supply
- Lumin U2-mini with S Booster power supply
- Seeking horn loud speaker that sounds rich, full bodied and dynamic at 50-55 decibel levels.
- Thanks.
