| Would I have enough power? Excellent distinction that is often overlooked. 2.83v/1m at 4 ohm versus 8 ohm. Almarg would politely remind people of this on a regular basis. And again OP 'specifies' moderate volume level for his listening, Charles | |
| Would I have enough power? @greg7,Kijanki makes a key point/observation. The 88db sensitivity will impact maximum volume capability and required amplifier power to do so. You listen at "moderate levels" so there’s less demand for power. If by modest levels you mean 65 to 80... | |
| biamping with 75 watt solid state and 18 watt tube amp.klipsch rp600m...t @jayctoy,You find the Klipsch sonically competitive with Omega speakers? Many would interpret this as high praise. Omegas are noted particularly for purity of tone and coherence. Do the Klipsch compare favorably in this regard? I know that you hav... | |
| Wilson Alexx V Well , so there's more to the story?All I can say is I've encountered no issues with WBF and leave it at that. Charles | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @jollytinker,Congratulations on your excellent outcome. I recall reading the 6 Moons review of the Thoress amplifier. No doubt about Srajan Ebaen's admiration for the unit.Charles | |
| Wilson Alexx V @daveyf, Again I'm not doubting what you've written but rather I haven't come across someone acting as the forum "guru" or know it all. Granted I'm not on WBF that often however when I do drop in I haven't noticed this particular behavior. I have... | |
| Wilson Alexx V @Roxy54, Then /than is another common misuse. Charles | |
| Wilson Alexx V @daveyf, Well I'm not familiar with the specific thread or "guru " poster you reference. There are hundreds of threads and dozens of topic sections to choose amongst. I don't question your encounters on WBF (Unfortunately not pleasant for you) ... | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk MK3 @stonecutter54,I don’t know the extent of your tube amplifier experience but I feel you’ll be pleasantly surprised. I own two tube amplifiers that are the common/popular circuit choice for tubes. Class AB, push pull using the typical group of powe... | |
| Wilson Alexx V @carey1110,You are welcome and best of luck. Very different niche and decorum over there.Charles | |
| ARE WILSON AUDIO WATT PUPPY 8 FOR 6 GRAND A GOOD DEAL? @jeffvegas, By many accounts the current generation of Klipsch (At lease the Heritage series) is better than you probably appreciate. As I’m sure you would acknowledge, insert /substitute any brand of speaker and you’ll receive a broad range of re... | |
| Wilson Alexx V @carey1110, I believe you'll find more of a favorable response and level of genuine interest if you post your comments on the whatsbestforum.com Audio section. You won't be greeted with snark and sarcasm. There are Wilson Audio speaker owners as... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Stephen, What you discovered makes sense. Your two different speaker cables could have relative meaningful differences in their gauge, resistance and capacitance. These variables could definitely affect/ impact the total amount of the damping fact... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @vinpic, Agree with David that favorable comparison to the Ypsiplon is high praise. Valvet amplifiers are consistently well regarded.Charles | |
| sonus faber electa amator iii or magico A1 or any other suggestion @haimr, My observation over the years. Magico versus Sonus Faber (SF).Very often SF owners and reviewers describe them as utterly musical, natural/organic and emotionally involving (Pulls you into the music).Magico owners and most reviewers descri... |
