What are the other components in your system? A system is the sum of all components it might be better to swap the amp… your speakers are generally thought to sound very good. But that will depend on the space you have them in. There is a place to put photos of your system and venue. This is really helpful for us to understand how to help.
looking for a more efficient speaker.....
some thing with a higher then my current rated 86 alon IV. something more easier to drive. i love the way the sound but i have to drive them at 1-2 oclock to get the best sound and then you start to hear the strain. let me know, i dont have big pockets so keep that in mind, plus i like floor standing types.

The Alon IVs are very good and compared to new prices or even used prices of more recent options, you'll be hard pressed to match them without spending fairly big bucks. The big woofer and deep low end of the IVs is a strength. With most speaker brands a common compromise to hit various price levels is first get good performance in mids & highs, then in higher prices, get larger cabinets and more low end performance. So keep that in mind as many of your choices may play louder and more efficienctly with your amp, lesser impactful and quality bass may be a risk. @ghdprentice 's suggestion to post your system and room details on a system page is the best advice. FWIW, once you share that, amp change suggestions may make more sense. One other question is there any chance that the cones need refoaming? Millersound is the industry standard for that...it's quite reasonable and considering the age of the Alons may be worth researching before placing a large bet. Spencer |
