Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: Omega Monitors?

Omega speakers are wonderful of you are looking for speakers to mate with SET or low-powered PP tube amps. IMO they are ideal for your gear and the genres of music you prefer. Single/concentric driver speakers offer unparalleled coherence, imaging and soundstage. I have a pair of SAMs (Super Alnico Monitors) and they are wonderful. If I were doing it again I might choose the High Output version (1.5 way). If your room is smaller you will want to consider the Super 3 Monitors or HOs. These don't play as loud and tend to work better with complex music.

You may also want to look at the Coherent speaker line from Canada. I also own a pair of Coherent 8s I bought used for a song. They are as good as the Omegas, but different. I am using them in my den system upstairs driven by a vintage EL84 PP amp (restored) and they sound wonderful. Big and lots of bass. I was using a subwoofer with these when played through my 45 SET amp but no need w/ the PP amp.
