Thanks, Wolf and mrdecibel!
I'm currently using JBL L65s with the PrimaLuna...have had them since new in 1978 with one re-foam & service check in the late 90s. I LOVE the sound of these with the EL34s at modest volume but, after having had the amp now for about 3 months, have been a little disappointed at how much the volume control needs to be turned before they'll "rock the house". I'm approaching straight up 12:00 on the volume on the PL and still wanting for a bit more but have backed it down to 9-10ish again as this is my first tube amp and I have no idea how hard these components/tubes should be pushed before usable life starts to drop off precipitously. The Heresy's are looking more and more attractive as an option with this new amp (although they'll probably bury me with my L65s...lol).
