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

RE: Speakers for Shindo WE300B ltd

Those are Shindo's top-level amps. Pretty much the only speakers I would consider for those are Shindo speakers or A23 speakers. Those are the only two that have been specifically designed and tuned for Shindo gear.

Devore O/96's are nice, and pair beautifully with something like the Masseto/Cortese, but they are not up to par to those amps. The system needs to make sense in totality.

Other vintage speakers from Altec and WE could work, too, but you'll have to invest some time in "optimizing" the setup. This is part of what Shindo himself does, updating and improving some of these old classics.

You should also consider that your room and associated equipment will have a major impact on whether these components can perform at their best. Few things are quite as sad as someone splurging on all this pricey gear and then having it perform at 50% of what it can do. I've heard Monbrison/Cortese setups that sound better than Giscours/300b Ltds.

And please remember that pretty much all of Shindo's gear is unique and wonderful in its own right. Don't be fooled by sticker price. I'm convinced the 6v6 Montille is one of the most amazing values in audio. If you're new to Shindo, consider starting with something more "humble", and then enjoy the ride as you explore his other offerings.

Hope that helps.
