Best floorstanders under $999 for low power SET amp?

Thanks

I had a friend come over to show off his snazzy new Phonic PAA6 (Professional Audio Analyzer).

We hooked up my Tekton Pendragons and ran a pink noise test (from PAA6 ==> First Watt B1 preamp ==> First Watt F5 amp ==> Tekton Pendragon). Using the microphones on the PAA6, it measured pretty flat across the whole spectrum (a few dips and spikes pretty likely attributable to the room, but not large in any case), all the way down to below 20 Hz. In fact, the scale stopped at 7.6Hz and it was still looking pretty flat.

Nothing to say about that but WOW.
Hi all ! Been running my Lore's and Mini Beast for almost a week now and I am very happy with both . I plan to pull the Mini Beast out and tidy up the wiring a bit . I think I will put the Cary in and see how that does . In triode mode it is 50 wpc. The Mini Beast is only 4 wpc and hasnt clipped yet as far as I can tell . Both the lore and mini beast are most excellent.....crazy good for the money . If it wasnt for you guys I would have ever known about these . BTW ...gpowered we both have a common friend.... good ole stereoal from north tampa , talked to him last night ..... thx again all , brad
Get yourself a pair of ESS AMT3's. The Omens will sound like a transistor radio in comparison. Soundstaging/tonal balance and imaging are far superior-and this thing was made in 1974.
I tried a set of Omens-the reminded me of the "Emporer's New Clothes"-i.e 'their ain't nothing there'-pardon my english.
I spoked with Eric the other day. He didn't give me all the details, but he does have something planned for black Friday, or cyber Monday. Not sure. If I find out I'll post back
