RE: Survey : did you take the high power or low power path ?

Your examples are misguided!

The Low Power route is horns powered by Class D. This is what I do. The power consumed by my 200 watt Class D all-in-one electronics (playing music at mid-level), two 1000 watt amps in my speakers, router, power filter box and 65" TV on standby amounts to a whopping 60 watts or less.

High Power could be horns with Class A or tubes, or (worse still) low sensitivity speakers such as the Magneplanar you mention, powered by Class A or tubes.

My conscience is smugly clear, my power bills are low and the sound I listen to is even better since I switched from SETs.
