Horning Perikles w Frankenstein amp


anyone other there heard the Horning Perikles or any other Horning speaker w Coincident's Frankenstein 300b amp? No problem w power rating- the speakers are 96 dB but not sure if the amp will be able to control the two, 8" woofers.

Aren't the Hornings designed with single ended triode amps in mind. I agree though that moving a lot of air is not easy its a reactive load. The other thing is where that sensitivity is being measured.
I own Klipsch La Scalas which have a ridiculous sensitivity of over 100 Db/W/M. The problem is that all that volume comes from one enormous and loud squaker horn. The 15 inch woofer barely moves Lord knows what the poor tweeter is up to. The measurement must be at something like 1K Hz.
