Consider a high quality single driver speaker like Voxativ, if you’re searching for musical speed and detail — especially with 300B driven SET. Zu audio can be driven nicely with a low power amplifier but offers more bass with its powered woofer.

It depends on the tube amp and room size as to which speakers sound good with tube amps. I had a 20 watt Raven Audio tube integrated driving the supposedly tube non-friendly KEF LS50s in a medium large room and the sound was glorious. Also a 100 WPC rogue audio amp with great success driving 86db Harbeths. Flip side a 3 WPC SET tube amp likes much more sensitive speakers- e.g. 93db Audio Note AN-J or E. |
I love these threads and how they twist and turn, altering the "purity" of the OP questions. It's like asking two different people how a piece of electronic gear works: A typical guy off the street would reply "Push this on-off button". An electrical engineer would be frozen in place by the complexity of the question. My Klipschorns have sounded great with a CJ tube amp & preamp, CJ preamp and modified Hafer SS amp, and now wirh a PL integrated tube amp. ( my only concern with the PL integrated is how at listening levels the volume knob is barely cracked open.) |
Well considering the OP has a pair of 350 wpc monoblocks I daresay he can pair just about any speaker he likes with them. Obviously some speakers are more tube friendly than others but that's a lot of power to throw at them. @lewl28 If you truly like your Sopra's just enjoy them. |
