Thanks Muzikat, the speakers are for a 2nd system in the same room. I have a Cary V12R tube amp hooked to a Cary SLP98P tube preamp. It is just too hot in the room to run it in the summer. I was going to use my Klipsch Quartets for the bigger system, but I may try the Katans with it, and I also have a Klipsch SW 10 series II 100 watt powered sub. Thanks again for your help. BTW I heard the Katans hooked up to 2 $10,000.00 Linn monoblocks and have changed my mind regarding small speakers.
