Zero Autoformers

68.120.84.17

I have purchased a pair of Apogee Stage’s. I have a pair of the M60’s that I would like to use on these speakers. The Stage’s, from what I have read, does not fall below 3 ohms. I have a pair of the Zero Autoformers here for an audition. The speakers sound terrible on the 2x and 3x. They sound pretty good on the 4x.

I have read the Zero Autoformers web site several times and I guess I just don’t get it. Since the Atma-Sphere are OTL’s, by adding a transformer into the equation, isn’t this defeating the whole reason for the OTL’s in the first place?

If a speaker needs 3 ohms to operate efficiently how can one fool it? I guess the bottom line is, is there a down side in using these, there has to be a down side/compromise with the Zero’s? Help………………..Bob
