Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

They worked well with my PL2...

...and why not? They're quite sensitive, and besides... MOST speakers sound better with glass :*)

I was using a 200 watt Rotel amp for most of my time with them. The PrimaLuna definitely warmed things up a bit, not as dry. Resolution was also better.

The Studios c.n image very well, but maybe a bit too pin-pointed.

Easy to drive.

Fairly well-balanc.d at lower levels.

And that's the thing - they tend to get c.ngested at higher SPLs. Staying at low-medium levels, you should be OK.

Despite being a very solid, well-built speaker, I've always felt there is a "tubby" or unnatural quality to the sound.

I never felt the tweeter was too bright (although c.rtainly not the most refined), but possibly "upper mids harsh", again, at higher volumes.

All of this must sound like I really didn't enjoy my time with them, but that's not the c.se. I do, however, feel better speakers c.n be had for less.
