Anytime you are investing in tube amplifier technology, that investment will be best served by a speaker that is at least 8 ohms or more.
Tube amps, with rare exception, have reduced performance into four ohms. <<
So, it seems that in general, Tvad is correct. Even though the Atma-sphere MA 2.2 may well drive the Woodmeres 4 ohm impedance to acceptable levels, the inference is that it would drive the Defintion AFI with 30 ohms impedance a helluva lot better. Furthermore, the 60 day in-home trial of the Defintions are a huge plus. Almost essential. So now will anybody give me their impressions of the "sound" of the Zu Definition, since there seem to be divided camps on this issue?
Thanks.
