Great speakers! I have the Alon Lotus SE MKIII and I love them, they're the last speakers I think I'll own. They are quite a bit more efficient than the Circe's, I run them on Cary 300B monos at 12 watts per side. You can't get away with that, but you should definitely go with tubes, that's how Carl voices his speakers. Go with something medium to high powered, perhaps something from VTL or conrad-johnson. Home demo as many different amps as you can, your speakers are good enough to really spend time finding the perfect amp for them. And when you do you're in for some real magic. Enjoy!
Amp recommendation for Alon Circe?
Recently upgraded speakers to Alon Circes. 87 db eff, 8 ohm impedence. Currently using Counterpoint SA-20 (200 wpc, hybrid). Musical preference is diverse, including classical, piano, jazz, blues, and rock. Listening room size is 15' x 18', with 8' ceilings. Is anyone running a similar system, and willing to share some lessons? Thanks.
