| Speaker Efficiency Clayton is no longer at Spatial. I have no idea why that amp didn’t work. On paper it was a great match and the Decware drove a pair of khorns like there was no tomorrow. | |
| Speaker Efficiency I’d be careful matching fleawatt amps with Spatial speakers. I had the x3 with powered subs and 96 db. You would think, easy to drive? A Decware Torii II @ 30 wpc wasn’t up to the task. | |
| How long does it take your tube amp to warm up? It sounds good after a few minutes. But most tube amps do. About 45 minutes to an hour and it sounds optimum. | |

| ISO - grit, texture, decay, life from snares and bass drums A well thought out system in a well treated room will need no eq. Address all other issues and you will find that it’s unnecessary. | |
| Considering a Second Subwoofer for the Front Since my last post was removed, let’s try this again. What in the H E double toothpicks is a bucket sub? Can we see an example of this beast? Your OP was very vague and cryptic. You should provide more details if it’s really advice you are aft... | |
