No matter how efficient the speaker, there will will always be the struggle between high power authority and being king of your domain, versus low power beauty and finesse. Go with the 96 (end game) versus 93 (more affordable) if you can. Try high and low power amps and pick of get the best in one price class and have fun!
DeVore O/93 or PureAudioProject Duet15 for a First Watt SIT-3?
Hi
What do you think would be better for a warm organic late night listening (classic music, opera and jazz)?
Stereophile reviewed the O/93 as a perfect pairing with SIT-3 (even is SIT-3 prefers low impedance speakers).
Duet15 seems to me more sensible (97db vs 93db) (and Steve Guttenberg think are top).
My current speakers are 4ohms / 87db Avalon Indra, absolute fantastic at their 80db listening kingdom.
Thanks

@audition__audio I appreciate your input. The Komuro was built for the O96 model and variants. It’s delivered with the higher ohm taps installed and it’s tuned for the O96. It was surprising how much command the 8 watts has over these speakers. So while I’m sure it’s fun and satisfying to make universal proclamations about what amps will work or what the speakers are capable of based on your own anecdotal experience, I don’t find those proclamations helpful or inherently true partly because of the tone and attitude with which they are delivered. Anyway, I appreciate the sharing and I will try to extract what wisdom I can from it. |
@audition__audio telling people what they do and do not like in their interactions with them is the opposite of passive-aggressive. Opinions and how they are shared are different things. I think you’re tired of it because you haven’t learned how to interact and aren’t particularly interested in doing so. Blaming others for all of your interpersonal difficulties should be a non-starter. |
