This one looks like my old love


In my 40 years of audio history, there are only two speakers that I had listened for more than 10 years.

My first love was Apogee Duetta Signature from 1988 to 1998.

Since I had wanted sub bass I sold it and got B&W 801 with 14 inches woofer

I could get sub bass with B&W but missed the nuanced soundstage out of Apogee.

This Analysis Audio Omega looks like a twin of Apogee Duetta Signature.

And it looks sexy with red color and got good review.

I am happy with Lansche 4.1 speakers which I had been using since 2007.

Shall I get Analysis Audio Omega as a second system reminding me of my first love?

The only problem is that I do not have amplifier to drive Analysis Audio Omega with enough power.

It seems to require 400W at least.

I used to drive Apogee Duetta Signature with Krell KSA 150 which put out 300W to 4 ohm.




If I get my old love as second system , can it bump my present speaker?


I do not thinks so, Lansche 4.1 is more balanced with nice plasma tweeter so I can not give it up.

But I still miss my old love with natural soundstage and nuanced details.

And I thought you could live with the Lansche till you die :-)

You mention that you don't have the amp to drive the Omegas. If I were you, I would rather spend money on music OR upgrade existing equipment to make the primary system sound more musical. You have a fine system and space. Forget about old love; be happy with what you have; for you have not seen what tomorrow might bring.
