Description

I'll be taking new pictures around January 8, 2003 once I'm moved into my new house in Toronto for my work term. These pictures of the system are from my sound room in Waterloo during my academic term. Next upgrade will be the Piega C8's or Jm Lab Mezzo Utopias. Also interested in SET and OTL amps. I need some recommendations from you guys on SET or OTL amps that will pair well with the above-mentioned speakers.

Once again, thanks for all the help on the forums this quarter.

Happy holidays and hope you receive all the toys you asked from Santa :)

If you are looking for SET or OTL amplifiers, my advice is to stay away from 4 ohm loudspeakers. They will not match up well, and may not match up at all. Take a look at the Coincident speaker line. They have 8-12 ohms impedance, depending on the model, and will be a much better arrangement with SET or OTL, due to the output impedances of these amps. The Super Eclipse, Total Eclipse, or Victory might be just the ticket.
