| Bi-Amping with one amp? Thanks guys. The question was mostly out of curiosity. Not sure if I will actually try this but it is good to know. | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? I think you can see it. | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? @atmasphere "There's a recording of the Saint Saens Organ Symphony on EMI that has 16Hz pedal tones."I've got the Telarc recording. I have no idea how low does it go or how low my system limbos, but when that organ blasts through my Aerial 7Bs, th... | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? I have talked with the owner about other things but not this. I feel like the limitations I am up against (budget, size, room limits, intended use, etc) make it unlikely that he will be able to recommend something adequate for these speakers.I hav... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Ella and Louis. Verve recording via Amazon Music. Sonically a great recording. | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? I see the Parasound Halo 2.1 here on Audiogon for around $1700. Will consider it. It isn't small or compact but no larger than the NAD. | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? @mt9894, one of my restrictions is that for these speakers to stay in the living room, the stuff driving them needs to be fairly small and discrete.The Classe' and Bryston (which I am selling for an estate) in there now are not making my wife very... | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? Well, in my defense (as if speaker choice needs defending) I got both sets of my speakers for free and driven properly they both sound amazing to my far-from-golden ears. | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? George, the amp I was referring to is the Proceed HPA2. It is functioning fine and is in my primary system with an AR tube pre and Areial Acoustics 7B speakers. I'm keeping all of that as long as it keeps running.The 6Ts are for a secondary system... | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? By tested do you mean what the manufacturer will publish (some don't give 4 ohm numbers) or do I need to look for an independent test? | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? You guys are teaching me a lot but not making it any easier. I'm just waiting for the magic word on the perfect $2000 integrated to match with a pair of $6000 speakers. ;-)@twoleftears I think those have been recommended but I can't remember if I... | |
| Thoughts on Peachtree Audio Nova300 Thanks nkphoto. For someone who does not enjoy the 'chase', the task of selecting an affordable integrated for these speakers has not been fun.I'm narrowing down the possibilities though. The Peachtree is still on the list.A bad review or QC exper... | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? Thanks djones51. I should also mention that these will rarely if ever be used at high volumes and in fact I would put more of a premium on low volume listening in this room.I have an NAD C316BEE down at my cabin and it sounds really good for the p... | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? @millercarbon, I get what you're saying but I have to narrow down the field somehow. And with a budget of under $2000 and no dealers conveniently close, auditioning is nearly impossible outside of shipping stuff back and forth which is time consum... | |
| Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms? I appreciate you guys helping out. This stuff is mind numbing if you’re not into it.My primary system is an older one that was given to me. It was researched to the nth degree by the original owner. The point being that I’ve never had to do this s... |
