I have just purchased a 2nd hand PX 25 and am looking for speaker suggestions.I have been out of the hobby for a while and want to stay off the merrygo round.Just want to get on listening to some music.My room is small ,volumes not loud and my taste jazz and small scale classical.Will probably buy a Resolution Audio cd to go with it.Any suggestions appreciated.

So Kevin, you're the one who gobbled up those PX-25 monos! I was very, very, close to going for them. I doubt they will ever pop again at that price.

Man, I regret not snapping those up.
Hi Zola,

I also have the AA PX-25. One thing I should point out is that Joe Fratus designed an unusually strong power supply, for a single digit output SET, that allows it to have the comparable drive of some 12-18wpc SET amps I've had in my system.

It would help to know what type of music you listen to most often and the aspects of reproduction that are most important to you since no speaker is perfect.

And what prior experiences have you had with high-efficiency systems and speakers? And stand out that you liked?

CMO,

Did you see the used PX-25 monos for sale here last week at ~$6k? Didn't last long.

I didn't even know they existed. Man, I wish i had the scratch for such an indulgence.
CMO - every once in a while, an ad comes along that has me thinking "What can I sell of it to get that?"

But, it always comes down to - I can have the monoblocks, but then no speakers.

Or, I can have those speakers, but no amp/preamp/cd player.

Or, I can have that turntable, but no tonearm or cartridge.

Such is life.
