Just a FWIW...

95db and 16ohms, specifically targeting SET and OTL owners. Would love to hear some OB's myself, and now these in particular. I have my doubts about them having any slam though, unlike my JBL200's driven by MA-1s :-) Still, I'm intrigued.

We were using mono-blocked ZOTL40s to drive these at AXPONA-ironic that they made their first show appearance with an OTL (I know, Ralph, I'm just using the term as generally understood) that has no problem with the Spatial's usual 4 Ohm impedance.

I didn't get to spend much time in the room, as I was stuck downstairs at our booth, but when we had them set up right they were sounding luxurious.

Easy to drive speakers are better for almost any amp!

I heard these at the show- very nice. I didn't get to really stress the system to see what they could handle, it was pretty busy every time I stopped by.
