So I was going to buy the Lores or the Perfect sets and Eric talke me into the Enzo XLs wish I wish he didnt . They are missing something to me . Accurate but lacking a bit. I would have stepped up to Perfect Set or Perfect Set 2-10 or even Double Inpact. Was driving those with 20watt 300B amp but also since added Willenston R8 with NOS tube upgrades. Anway that amp is killer with the Tube upgrades . I also have a pair for Forte IVs because the Tektons werent getting me where i wanted. Now I have the sound I want but wish i could fit the Cornwalls in that spot. Speak about accuracy in vocals, phrasing, percussion WOW! If you can fit the Cornwalls get them. The Fortes will work amazingly just off the wall in the room you are speaking to but step up if you can.
Efficient speaker: Zu, Tekton, Volti, Klipsch, Fleetwood?
We’re moving and I’m looking for a high-efficiency, high impedance speaker that can fill a very large “great room” with smooth, open, detailed sound, both for serious listening and casual background music. I currently have Devore Super 9s, but those will be going in a separate dedicated listening room. I thought about getting another pair of Devores (maybe the O/93) for the great room because I love this brand, but I’m interested in other possibilities The new speakers will be on either side of a 6-foot TV console, so they’ll need to sound good fairly close to the wall behind them. And they will need to have a reasonably good WAF. They will be played mainly at low-moderate sound levels and our tastes include rock, classical, world music and “spa” type relaxation stuff.
Anyone who is familiar with any of the following candidates, please feel free to sound off. As you can see, price ranges are all over the place:
Zu Soul Supreme
Tekton Lore
Volti Razz
Klipsch Forte IV
Fleetwood Deville
Others?
