| Harbeth 40.1 vs spendor sp100r2 I own Harbeth HL Compact 7 and Spendor S8e. I love both with my Conrad Johnson MF2250A solid-state amp and my VTL 70/70 & Manley Retro 100 tube amps. Both Harbeth and Spendor are fantastically natural sounding speakers. To reproduce unampl... | |
| Best amp for natural timbre of unamplified acoustic instruments & vocals w/ Revel F32? Marked improvement! Tweeter break-in, cable changes, adjusting tweeter and bass settings on rear of speakers have made the Revels much more enjoyable! | |
| Best amp for natural timbre of unamplified acoustic instruments & vocals w/ Revel F32? I have thought of Class D Bel Canto, Channel Island or other. I might add also that I have switched around IC and speaker cables that I have and there is an improvement. | |
| Best amp for natural timbre of unamplified acoustic instruments & vocals w/ Revel F32? The speakers had a brand new, just installed titanium tweeter. They are sounding much better. I think alot of the dry harshness that I was hearing was the tweeter not being broken in. | |

| Floorstanders for $3500 Rhljazz, is your statement about my list of speakers not being tube friendly based solely on their efficiency ratings (sensitivity in db)? If so, 90-100 watts/channel is more than many tube amps & I thought sufficient. | |
