| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) That means those speakers don't challenge that amp very much. I'd start looking at placement and room issues. A nicer amp isn't going to hurt your sound, but I'm not seeing an amp related technical problem here. I have no idea how else to set ... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) I measured the Focal Chorus 807V with its grille removed. Its voltage sensitivity on the tweeter axis was significantly higher than the average I have measured over the years, at an estimated 90dB(B)/2.83V/m, though this is a little lower than... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) More power won’t fill in the holes. This speaker is easy to drive and is friendly to tubes so I have trouble imagining that a class D amp can’t drive it.How long are your speaker cables? 8ft each. Belden cables from BJC. I forget if they are 10 or... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) So like mine, yours dive from the lower mids through to the bass. I have bass. But no midbass (until I start getting volume north of 90db).I don’t think I have a power issue so much as a current issue.Whats your take on it?Stereophile reviewd your... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) I seriously doubt it's a power issue seeing as how I'm powering much bigger, much more challenging Focals with a 32 watt amp. Which amp and which speakers? | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) You might also try auditioning different cables as well If you have some insight as to what to look for in a cable I'm all ears... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) The way you describe it sounds like its more of a room problem. Have you tried moving the speakers a bit? OMG yes. Every way I can even if it was an idiotic arrangement for a living room. I did everything but glue speakers to the ceiling. The b... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) @robelvick @uberwatltz thanks. That’s excellent info. Researching now | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) I wish there was a “like” button here. Some really good suggestions. @uberwaltz I’m definitely to look more at the Hegel. You’re the second to recommend and you have had them with my speakers so that put them higher on the list.so much more to res... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) @donvito101 I was actually looking at those a few weeks ago. The Synergy 200 with the Vision SLR pre. Seems like solid stuff. | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) @robelvick No sub. I had a Sunfire and it was way too much. I’d rather stay sub-less | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) @elevick thanks. I’m not looking for loud so much as the power to push the speakers in the mid bass to fill in at lower volumes. When I crank this amp it does fill in so by what I’ve read more power is needed. I think I explained that wrong in my... | |

| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) @czarivey Hahahaha. Right? | |
