Avalon Opus Ceramique

I’m using Electrocompaniet AW-180 Mono-block power-amp for my Avalon Ascendant II speaker,my amp give enough power to my speaker and I like the result. Just want to know if my amp can also handle Avalon Opus Ceramique very well? Does Opus Ceramique are difficult to drive?

I do think it will be a noticeable improvement and a actual upgrade for you.

It's kind of a mini-Eidolon. The imagining of Opus is really something when set up properly.

Enjoy!

It is more precise in the low, mid and high freq. Better timing!

Ceramique very limited in bass extension. Suitable for small rooms with construction material that traps bass energy (concrete). Bass is insufficient for medium size room. May work if listening position has large bass modes (e.g. chair close to wall behind listener).

It is not a big speaker. The bass unit is not thst big, so it does not go that deep. But what makes this speaker different to other Avalons, is timing!

Glai, have you done any experimentation with other speaker footers such as decoupling devises or other spikes?
