I was more concerned with the 15 ohm speakers. What limitations should I look for in a small amp with them. I don't want to mismatch them or cause damage.
Ancient Ohms
Recently, I opened up a couple of cabinets i obtained years ago.
The woofer is an AK 121 and the horn is a GP1, 550Hz 3-cell horn. The cabinets were marketed in Canada as Vitavox Bitone 3200 speaker units. The drivers themselves are in excellent condition and sound like that as well. I believe each driver is 15 ohm. What should I be concerned about when trying to buy a small amp for these? I’m using a sub-standard, solid-state receiver amp right now but wonder if a tube amp might be more appropriate?
Any thoughts?
