In Reply to: Speakers to match a 24 watt 300BXLS tube amp.? posted by Spectre1 on January 29, 2008 at 20:37:57:
As you may know, 300B amps like high/benign impedance loads with the emphasis on benign whether they are single ended, PP or parallel.
Taxing a 300B amp with low impedance dips and average efficiency speakers will mitigate the "magical" qualities that the venerable 300B tubes are capable of delivering.
I had excellent results with a GS 300B/WE SE amp and Cabasse Farella 401 speakers. This was one of THE most musical systems I have ever put together to date although I must divulge that a sub was used via electronic x-over @ 68hz/36db octave thus relieving the 300B from low bass duties.
My advice, keep the efficiency of the speakers above 94db and definately keep a close eye on the impedance undulations so as not to tax the amp.
Cheers
