A Good Match?

I looked at the review and impedance was not mentioned. The problem is this, a transistor amp attempts to double its power when you halve the impedance. A speaker with a low impedence minimum [ say 3 ohms or lower] may well try to draw more power from the amp than it can supply. My Gamut speakers have a low of 3 ohms and I cannot drive them with my Meridian amps, which drive my Spendors, which are 6 ohms minimum, with no trouble. Since these are speakers designed for HT they are unlikely to have a low impedance curve as HT amplifiers are not generally known as being especially powerful. But ?

Thanks Stanwal... I'm learning a lot here. So what you describe generally is a factual problem... but we're not sure if it applies with the Hales. Does anyone else know what the impedance minimum on the Hale's might be? An internet search on that is not revealing much to me.

Frogman: what do you think of pairing the Hales with the above mentioned Cambridge or Music Hall

Consider a used NAD 270 or 272. Affordable and good power w/some meat on the bones.

someone here is selling a couple of new Yaqin el34 based amps, that would put out some meat! and colors and texture....for 400 bucks!
40 tube watts go along way too.
