Hi Paul,
Thank you very much for your comments.
I hope my Pipedreams would be THE speakers to hang on for life. However, I need the statement amps that are powerful yet beautiful, dynamic yet subtle, no weaknesses top to bottom, and timeless. Most importantly, I need to have 2 identical pairs for best coherency.
The Moon W10s were good but sometimes they don't seem to have enough drive. I suspect that due to their bridging topology, they don't have enough current for the speakers.
I plan to do some experiment with the W10s while waiting for the 33s. My technician informed me that the W10s were bridged from the W5s in SERIES which produce great VOLTAGE but not CURRENT. The other alternative is to bridge them in PARALLEL which will enhance the current capability considerably.
As for the 33 vs 33h for the mid-hi towers, I guess I will have to try to set them up and see how it goes. Paul, may I ask you a question? When you used the 33s on the mid-hi, did you use the similar amps on the subs?
The reason I asked because if you used different amps on the sub, it would have had an impact on the mid-hi too. This is from my experience and you may or may not agree with me.
By the way, in case you are correct and the 33h are really better..., I will not be hesitate to follow your footstep later on :)
