This system affordably combines the delicate magic of Audio Note's tube cd player, preamp and 17w/channel power amp(the beauty)with highly efficient Klipsch speakers(the 'beast') that can actually generate convincing sound from very few watts. Harmonic Technology provides sound advantages acknowledged even by cable and interconnect skeptics as being worthy. A nice alternative to massive amps and difficult speaker loads.
I just remembered one time with another audiofile buddy of mines who had the ALTEC Voice of the Theater speakers and like the Klipschs,they only need very little power we hooked up a 5 watt EL-84 based tube amp and the speakers roared.I can imagine how these speakers would sound with just 5 watts of tube power.Then we had this old 14 watt BOGEN intergrated amp hooked up to the speakers and they sounded wonderful.ENJOY...
Cant go wrong with a pair of good old KLIPSCHs at 104 dbs..I can imagine how it sound with some good MILES DAVIS..and PUENTE..Thats keeping it simple..
