In Reply to: Lifelong SS+monitor guy. Can I be happy with SET+HE Speakers? posted by TIC on April 25, 2002 at 14:30:51:
TIC---The Bottleheads and the Billies sound very good. But I wouldn't use them with low-output, moderately high efficiency speakers like some you mentioned. Best I think to go the whole hog and get a proper horn system with compression drivers and big woofers, something like an Altec or JBL rig with 100db+ efficency and tremendous output, presence, clarity and dynamics. Even if you don't use the output steadystate you'll find yourself addicted to the dynamics, dynamics you might not have known were present in the music because your small speakers couldn't reproduce them. If you must go with smaller speakers I recommend the Adire HE-10 or the Edgar Slimline. Both made quite a stir at the Lima hornfest. Both have good dynamics and excellent clarity. My opinions.
