Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: The problem you express is not uncommon......

Robert,

I alluded to the generous input sensitivity of his amps in my previous post above and the need for a lower gain preamp. Then I looked at his system and noticed he was already using a Canary preamp. You would think this would be a good combination since it has only has 9db of gain. I am using my canary amps with a deHavilland UV which has 12 db of gain and it works very well. So I don't think it is an amp/preamp mismatch at all. Could the Klipsch speakers he is using be more sensitive than specified?

So I agree. He not only needs better speakers, but ones of lower sensitivity.
