Very easy to place thanks to the front firing woofers and ports, can go really deep, and while you could drive them with low powered tubes, I run mine on a Krell Evo 403 and they love the power. One of my favorite speakers of all time and I could have almost anything and they still are here! A very fast speaker that is revealing yet tolerant of upstream components.
