Re: SET newbie, should I go for it?

24.154.27.75

Hi,
I have used 90 db. speakers with a 300B amp, in my 12' by 24' by 8' high listening room, but not full range. With a pair of biamped subwoofers handling all frequencies below 100 hz, and a 4th order roll off crossover, it sounded amazing. Most of the music I enjoy was reproduced with full power and authority. Some, the system just couldn't handle, even at moderatly high volume. Ex: Zepplin, Who, and similar power rock. Distortion became too much at the higher volume levels I sometimes crave. Detail and soundstage was the best I have ever experienced, and I miss it, but I need to rock hard sometimes, and it just couldn't do it.
102 db. Horns with a 45 or 2a3 amp did though.
