I personally like efficient speakers. I bought Crites because they were 1/3 the cost of other choices. I was used to horn sound. I also wanted a class A amp. Several small wattage amps available at reasonable pricing.
Why did you choose the components and speakers that are in your system?
I have an opportunity to build another system and I'm looking to mix up the sound I seek and it occurred to me to ask the 'goners! So..... why did you choose the components in your current system? In other words- what was important to you when building it?
