the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data?
@larryi Wrote: I’ve heard horn systems work well in small rooms; they should not be ruled out for any situation. Also many horn systems are really at their best playing softly—they deliver a lively sound at lower volume than other types of speak...

@grislybutter, Thank you for the kind words! Mike

No expert here. The most significant speaker criteria for me would be dynamics, dynamic contrast, and low distortion. As a HiFi enthusiast the speaker specifications I look at are: 1) power linearity: 2) efficiency: 3) dispersion: 4) directivi... 
JBL d123 crossover yes or no ?
@rocky1313, The JBL D123 is a 12’’ extended range speaker design for flush wall mounting between studs. See article below: Mike https://www.lansingheritage.org/images/jbl/specs/home-comp/d123/page1.jpg

What does Nominal Impedance mean?
@ozzy Wrote: So, does that mean they will play louder or does the amp need to work harder? ozzy Both! Also the lower the impedance the amp operates in, the higher the distortion produced by the amp. Mike  
What does Nominal Impedance mean?
@ozzyWrote: Let me ask another question: So, does a 4-ohm speaker play louder than an 8-ohm speaker with the same amplifier and volume setting? As I understand, only in 8 Ohm load does 2.83 volts produce 1 watt. In a 4 Ohm load 2.83 volts pro... 
I was happy with my system for 30 years; now I need a new amp...and more?
