In Reply to: Dynaudio Audience 82 or B&W 703 w/ 100-watt tube amp posted by casy1 on March 4, 2007 at 01:24:37:
100WPC may be sufficient to drive them loud, but both Dyns and B&W exhibit not so pleasant impedance and phase angle variations (to the best of my knowledge).
In addition, both are reflex type.Combine both above with typically low output impedance of the typical tube amp and you have significant frequency aberrations plus lack of woofer control.
Add to that request for "smooth top-end non-fatiguing" and "... midrange bloom..." for which none of the mentioned speakers is not known for, plus "powerful bass response" usually not associated with typical tube amplification.
Now if we would know what that tube amp is, and the rest of the system, room, listening levels, type of music... maybe we could say something.
