I have a pair of the Classic 30's. I like them so much I decided to purchase a Center and pair of Classic 20's for the rears of an entire HT system. I had them hooked up to MC275 mono tube amps but I preferred them hooked up to MC601 SS monos. I must admit I generally do prefer the power of SS amps. I find the glass and the small size of the speakers to be very attractive, others may not.
Audio Physic Classic series
Hi, Im wondering if anyone has any experience with or thoughts on the Audio Physic Classic series.
I was able to audition the Classic 20 recently, briefly, being driven by PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP. My take was that they were a pleasant, lively speaker. I'd guess their frequency response isn't the flattest around, but they just sounded lively, not wildly inaccurate. Bass definition and detail was impressive, all the way to the bottom of the speaker's range. Treble was perhaps not world-class, but avoided all traces of harshness. The speakers managed to portray the recordings I heard as an organic whole, without sacrificing too much detail at all.
OF course, a short audition can be very different from long-term experience, so I'd love to hear from anyone who knows these speakers.
