low power tube amp

Klee123, This is why I asked earlier in this thread if your amplifier utilizes NFB as this will lower the amplifier output impedance and likely making it less susceptible to widely varying speaker impedance loads. Problem is that NFB can have adverse effects as well (depending on the amount and how it’s used). Ralph (Atmasphere) has covered this in excellent detail numerous times on this forum.

For example my SET amplifier has no NFB and has an output impedance of 1.2-1.4 range. This is pretty low for a no NFB amplifier but would be considered very high for the typical solid state amplifier. This works out fine for me as my speakers are 14 ohm nominal and have a relatively flat impedance curve.

So as Al has clearly explained the amplifier and speaker must have reasonably compatible impedance characteristics. You need more information about your amplifier.

I will be using this with the sopra 2.  The kt88 doesn't sound as nice as this with my last speaker (quad esl 63)

talked to the amp designer, it does have negative feedback

Klee123,
I’m unfamiliar with this double tetrode tube. I’m aware of the company Finale Audio and they have an established and good reputation. This particular amplifier seems to be an all out effort toward high quality. I get the feeling that this is a very good amplifier design. I suspected it’d have "some" NFB as tetrode/pentodes aren’t quite as linear as pure triode tubes. I hope you can hear  the pairing, it could be really good! I like their attention placed on high quality transformers and chokes, always a good sign.😊

Klee123,
If the Focal  speakers don't work out you should really consider looking at more efficient and easy to drive speakers.  I think that this 829 SEP  amplifier you have is special.  The right speaker match would allow the amplifier to shine to its full capability.

thanks
you guys are a wealth of knowledge
