Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Avalon Speakers

Maybe you are right but I have yet to be convinced by what I am hearing from even the Eidolon Diamond. For the money it seems to woefully underperform. Surely you are not going to tell me that Pass Labs amps are inadequate to get good sound from these speakers?

My experience directly mirrors what several others here have noted. I am not surprised at what they report.

I am not convinced that going to Accuphase will make that big of a difference. I have heard Accuphase amps on a number of speakers and while good sounding they never lit a fire under the speaker to give a really "WOW" sound. Maybe the speakers sucked or not hard to say. Suffice to say that the ONLY amps from Accuphase that I would give truly serious consideration to are their true Class A amps (I believe it is now the A60 and the E550). These are easily the best sounding Accuphase amps, IMO.
