Eidolon, Amati Homage, or Watt?

I agree that the Avalon is on a higher level than the others mentioned, but I also agree they'll probably need more to make them sing than the C-J can give them. I will say that I have never been a fan of Wilson Audio speakers, but the Watt-Puppy 6 is a different animal, it actually gives that "big" sound that the Dunlavys can give you when set up right, a marked difference from earlier versions of that speaker, has surprisingly good bass which is substantially better than prior marks of the speaker and I think it would work well with the Connie-Js (I've heard it with VTL 150s, ARC Ref 300s and Nagra amps, all to VERY good effect). You should be seeing good deals on them now, too, because Wilson is reportedly redesigning them as a much more expensive speaker and using the Sofia to take the W-P place in the sonic-price niche. They are worth an audition if you want to keep the same (excellent) electronics you have now (and believe me, I thought I'd never say that about this speaker).

Your feedback is greatly appreciated and I thank you. As much as I really want to like the Watt/6,(they would look the best in the room and my wife likes them) I think I'll be disappointed in the long run. Although their indivdual characteristics surpass the SC4 and yes, their dynamics are incredible, I always go ahhh,the music is back when I
return home from their audition. Maybe I'm just used to the Dunlavy presentation of sound and I need more time with them. For now,however, I'll trust my ears and continue to search. The Eidolon sounds like a good start. Thanks again.

hello don't waste your time with the BAT 60 mono's your Conrad Johnson premier 8XS is way better sounding having owned both amplifiers before.

I listened to the Eidolon, the Watt/Puppy 6 and the Wisdom Audio before deciding. I bought the Wisdoms. The Eidolons imaged impressively but did little else for me. The W/P were impressive. But the Wisdoms seemed to do more right. Usually a speaker design will be particularly good in one area or, in better designs, particularly good in all but one area. The Wisdoms struck me as being good top to bottom. Depending on musical taste I think you could find the W/P to be short on bottom end. No such problem with the Wisdoms.

I would give these a listen, they're great sounding and are in the ballpark in terms of $$$.
unfortunately, i have not listened to them, it's just an off the cuff suggestion!
