A Sense of Balance in Audio

[Response Audio]

This is a quick video of the setup mentioned previously. The Raven Audio Silhouette mono blocs driven by the Harmonia used as a linestage seen in the floor between the amps. The Klipsch are on the outside of the Lintons.

Thanks, Jack. I don't believe I've ever owned efficient speakers. But frankly years ago I didn't really pay attention to such things as efficiency ratings. Having said that, I think the most efficient speakers that I can recall are the JMR that I have right now. They are rated at 88.5 db.

It would be interesting to try very high efficiency speakers and some reputable flea watt  amps. But right now I've spent enough money on my system and I just want to enjoy what I have for a while.

 Rry nice looking setup, Bill.

While my Verity's are not really "high efficiency" per se like a Klipsch, Volti, etc., they are easy to drive.  Many of the owners drive them quite easily in moderate rooms with SET amps.  Mine are easily driven by the 30wpc Music Reference RM-10. While the Singxer amps will drive the Rosso's and Qualio's easily they will show their limits quicker especially in the larger new room addition.  The Kinki monos and the 25s don't have those limits from what I've found.  For whatever reason the 25s seem to really like the Rosso's which are voiced similarly to Reynaud.
