Speakers that work with Atma-sphere M60 amps.

A'goners,thanks for your help with the Preamp question. I currently am using Atma-sphere M60 MkII.2 amps with B&W CDM7SE speakers, sounds great to me! I keep hearing that I need to use speakers with higher sensitivity, and that don't dip below 8 ohms resistance. I would appreciate hearing what you think about good matches for these amps. My listening room is 18X12 and I listen in the nearfield. Thanks in advance.

I think Rushton made an excellent suggestion with the Merlins...

Very happy Merlin VSM-MM owner.

Avguygeorge, certainly various horns will fall into that category of OTL M-60 compatible. Note Duke's recommendation of the Avantgarde. Also, Cain & Cain, Zingali and others. It will usually come down to the design of the crossover.

THanks for all the info. I have heard that coincident and Merlins are good matches. ANyone have experience with Silverline speakers? Their impedance also matches.

Add Lowthers to the list. Members of the Chicago Horn Club heard a pair of Lowther PM2As driven by a pair of Atma-Sphere MA-1s a few weeks ago to great effect, perhaps overkill since M-60s and probably an S-30 would have been adequate. Jon Ver Halen of Lowther America was there as well. It can't speak for him but one could ask his opinion.

The ZERO autoformers enable other speakers to be used successfully with the amps.
