| Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels. +1 on the Loki. I had one before I got a preamp with tone controls. Very nice unit and when defeated I couldn't hear it doing anything adverse to the signal. Great product. | |
| Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels. Higher efficiency speakers often do sound better than low efficiency, and can do so by a wide margin.

| Peeking inside a Carver Crimson 275 Tube Amplifier Ha! Yes, I think I can get it back together! The PrimaLuna was difficult to mod Because there was so much going on inside that amp, but I was able to do it.
