Speakers for Atma Sphere M60 mk3


Hi! I'm thinking about tubes.... an Atma Sphere M60 mk3 maybe... (Its within my budget)

What kind of speakers are they able to drive to decent levels (classical, jazz)?

Today I have a pair of SF Elipsas SE. I think they could be too much for the M60.

I'm just curious, what are you using with the M60? What do you recommend?

Room is 26 x 14 ft ceiling is about 9

Thanks!

I tried the MA1s (bigger brother of M60) with 4 ohm speakers, including the top of the line (at the time) Dynaudio Consequence. No good.

8 ohm - yes quite good. Varying.

Spelz autoformers - I tried and was not convinced. Veils the image a bit and contradicts the OTL idea.

My current speakers have Impedance: 16 ohms nominal, stays between 13 and 17 ohms above the bass impedance peaks, and Efficiency: 92 dB/1 watt.

This is clearly health food for my Atma amps. Their sonic performance rises to new heights. But results could be suprising. If you can try with the Elipsas, great.

 

 

As I understand is the 4 ohm Elipsas not a good match....

Keep the Elipsas and go with AR or sell them and get the 60s and 8+ ohm speakers....

Speaker suggestions for the M60 are welcome!

Thanks!

 Devore's play well with Atma-sphere. The Gibbon series are 8ohm with a pretty benign load. 

Just about any speaker that has a flat impedance of at least 8 ohms or preferably 10-12 ohms to work best. Not many speakers have that type of impedance curve but look for a speaker that uses the PHY driver.
