Slightly off topic. I am a happy owner of Nova IIs and drive them with a Pass Labs x150.5. I have thinking of upgrading to a Pass xa30.8 or xa25, but wonder if the xa25 would struggle with its rated 50w at 4ohm?

@johngaltwho Try going and listening to them. Then you will be enlightened. |
samzx12 It's an open living dining room, perhaps 50x50’ with tall ceilings, and connected with an adjacent space. It is hard not to be tempted by all the positive xa25 write-ups, but the it may run out of juice for this space. |
@johngaltwho go and listen to both, it's hard to articulate the differences in words your ears need to tell you.. For example, I have Sonetto Vs and listened to Nova IIs back and forth, the Nova IIs were better, cleaner, better base so overall better without question. I did not find them double the price better so went with Sonetto Vs for now. Listen to both back and forth I suspect the Amators will be better, cleaner and you will notice then it's up to budget because you can continue to hear better series of SF speakers and it will keep getting better but so does the cost. Also what amplifier are you using? Cheers |
