the Tannoy can be more power hungry than their specs might suggest.
This is true and 25 or 30 watts is not a whole bunch of power. It works for me but I seldom play loud.
Tannoy Everyone?! with Leben CS600 or Pass XA25/30.5?
Wow. 200 hours and the Stirling are sounding really great!
My Leben cs600 seems to run out of juice though - especially on the digital side. The gain from my phonostage leaves some room, but the 2mV output from my DAC not so much.
I'm thinking Pass Labs w/a tube pre and am curious if an XA25 will drive them? Or an XA30.5 might be better? Any experience would be helpful. Gracias, amigos.
