What can I drive w/ the 8wpc Air Tight 300B amp?


The Air Tight ATM 300b is the best amp I have ever heard (notwithstanding the VAC 30/30 and 70/70) With 8 watts per channel and a medium sized (14 x 17) room- I don't even think I can drive Quad 2905s. Any recommendations??

Depends on the type of music. Lately I have been experimenting with a WAVAC 300b amp in my 14 x 23 room and for everything but hard rock and symphonic, it sounds pretty darn good driving my Merlin VSMs at moderate volumes. Its not perfect, but in a somewhat smaller room might work just fine unless you are a large scale classical afficiendo. I listen mostly to small combo jazz, folk, bluegrass singer songwriter stuff and the 8-10 wpc I get from my 300b works. Certainly any high eff single driver speaker would work, but with a benign impedence curver and moderately high eff, there are lots of choices if you avoid ear-bleed levels.
