| highly sensitive loudspeakers for single ended poe I found Living Voice speakers to be extremely tube friendly and their sensitivity is 94db. | |
| highly sensitive loudspeakers for single ended poe The sensitivity rating is not the only thing to consider when matching a speaker to single ended amplifiers. The impedance, number of drivers and the complexity of the crossover are other major factors. | |
| Amp & Speaker matching Manley and VTL set their output transformers to approximately 5.5 ohms so their amps will perform well with 4-8 ohm speakers. | |
| why use towers if you've got a sub?? There are HT subs and there are music subs. Large speakers create more room problems than small speakers not to mention large floor standing speakers themselves are big reflective surfaces. If you think it is difficult integrating a sub then you h... | |
| Bookshelf speaker with electrostatic sound There are a few speakers that meet your criteria. Green Mountain Audio makes some nice sounding speakers. So does Von Schweikert and you may be able to find a pair of Revel M22s in your price range. | |

| Nasty slap echo Josefm, This is why I always caution on using too much room treatment. | |
| Nasty slap echo I just looked at the picture of your room and I see why you have echo. The dropped crown molding is the least of your worries. ASC makes some absorbing panels that would work for the side walls. I would also try throwing some blankets over the lea... | |
| Nasty slap echo The echo you hear when clapping your hands is harmful to the sound. This can be cured with room treatment, furniture, window treatment, etc. It is best if you can cure the problem with furniture and window treatment. Whenever you add one of these ... |
