Yes, looking at ML electromotion in walls that have ribbon, but I am not married to them. The speakers will be built into the bookshelf with their own wood enclosure matching the shelving. I would also consider a compact bookshelf speaker but my max height is 11 inches and max depth 13 inches icluding cabling. I am taking into consideration the subwoofer comment and could add that on the lowest shelf if it is small enough, but my concern is not enough power to drive the main speakers with a tube amp and also limited height and depth. I expect a subwoofer would have its own amplifier. I may have to give up on something, maybe the tube if I want good sound volume. I was considering the Jolida from a size standpoint (and tube look). If I get a efficient in wall or bookshelf, will 10 tube watts drive high 80's low -90 dB speakers?
compact tube amp and in wall speaker
I need help with matching up a compact tube amp like a jolida 102 crc with a set of in wall speakers like a Martin Logan electromotion iw. Goal is to obtain wife approval factor, cool look of tube amp in a new to be built floor to ceiling bookcase. Room size is 16' x 14' x 9'. Book case is on either side of a 8' opening to an adjacent room. Size and price of new jolida is good. Martin Logan is at high end of what I'd like to spend on speakers. Does tube amp have enough power to drive speakers for all types of music. Sound quality needs to be decent. I like music reality loud, but only when wife not at home. She will play at miderate levels. Other recommendations welcome. Thank you.
