A bit of research shows S8 impedance to be more challenging to drive:
Minimum impedance: 4.2Ω at 92Hz
Nominal impedance: 6Ω
Minimum impedance: 4.2Ω at 92Hz
Nominal impedance: 6Ω
An honest opinion about upgrading?
I'd like to get better definition and clarity out of my music which is mostly jazz, chill, new age, vocals and some classical. Do i need new speakers, would mono blocks with more power give me a better sound, how about a great integrated amp.
My speakers are the Paradigm S-8's, the power amp is the Rouge Audio 90, the pre amp is the Rouge Audio Magnum 99. I have the Ayon CD-1, Music Hall 9.1 with Black cartridge. My cables are all in the 200-400 price range. What should i do?... i'd like to hear a better sound for a reasonable amount of money. I think about the Ayon Triton integrated amp or maybe the Rouge Audio mono blocks (150 WPC vs the 90 i have now).
With what i have what would your next move be.
