Dear Jim,
Thanks for the wisdom. Compared to the Duntech pig in a poke, Aerial 20Ts are probably my choice for an all-around best practical solution.
A Plinius SA-250 drove 20Ts to room-filling volume on pipe organ in a 60 x 33 x 15 room in a mansion in Newport. Without really trying. I can only imagine what a pair of SA-250s strapped for mono and running on 240V would do.
If one does the arithmetic, the Duntechs still come out surprisingly ahead in frontal area of bass drivers. 226 versus 127 square inches per speaker. And they are an easier load. But they don't have the lovely ribbon tweeter.
Thanks again,
JM
