Re: Atmasphere amps with Guarneri Loudspeakers

Based on what I am seeing below of their specs, you will need an MA-1 if you have a large room, but will be able to work fine with a set of M-60s if you have a subwoofer.

The speaker has a moderate 8 ohm impedance curve that is friendly to tube amplifiers in general. The efficiency is low (88 db) so its really not so much an issue of impedance as it is power. In every other regard the M-60 and MA-1 will be quite comfortable on a speaker like this.
