Home High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

Now you are talking

24.214.248.8

Answering your question, interested in more efficient speakers
(98db+) since I prefer to drive with my tube amps. Built and
modified Bottlehead 2A3 monoblocs and tube preamp.

Thanks so much for the all the info. I'm hearing deeper bass
than what I heard with my 40hz planars. Have I measured it?
No (just to get that out of the way!). For the other guys,
never claimed my experience to be a flat 35hz. But my point
was/is the Druid sounds good here, they are punchy and deeper
than what I had and I have some experimental based rationale
as to why compared to the other system I have in house.

The AP Oval 9 cable is not even tolerable on the KG5.5 due
to being exceptionally bass heavy. Here they work very well.
It was a tremendous difference ditching twisted pair magnet
copper wire with vampire RCA and going to BL1 IC's.
Not subtle. So all retoric aside I'm having a good sound
experience here. It could be that there are much better
options so thanks for all of your suggestions. I'll start
checking them out and get some feedback soon! Spent a few
years getting my front end right, now looking for the right
"voice". I'm very happy with the KG5.5, but always of mind
to tinker. Have to go beyond the system that already sounds
nice, detailed, and relaxed :-) No end in sight!
