I haven't owned Shearwaters but I have owned hot rod kestrels and hot rod herons. They were both very easy to drive as I believe the Shearwaters are. I think I would find another salesman to get advice from. The Kestrels and I understand, the Shearwaters to a little lesser degree are light on bass. Great musical speakers but unless in a very small room really need a Rel in my opinion. The Herons definitely do not need a sub. The bottom line is that Meadowlark makes very fine speakers that are easy to drive.
Shearwater efficiency?
Hello,
I currently own a pair of Hales Rev 3. I am looking for something alittle more refined and thought the Meadowlark Shearwaters would fit the bill. I had heard them before with an Audio refinement Complete Int. Sounded great.
However I recently went into a local shop the the salesman said that the Shearwaters need to be driven hard to sound good. Meaning high volumes with lots of power. Is this true?.
Incidently I have LOTS or power.
Thanks
Perry
