atmasphere,
Of course you can take my word for anything I say I hear. Also, because I am not in the business I tell things like it is without concern for politics. Actually, I use an EQ to drastically boost HF because as a violinist hearing things under my ear, I tell you that all speakers are hopelessly veiled and muddy compared to that. I cannot make any system sound as natural and truthful as the real thing, but my EQ helps a lot. My speakers are aging Audiostatic 240, and I add the Enigmacoustics Sopranino super tweeters in parallel at the 8 kHz crossover setting. The net impedance of this combination is a little below 2 ohms in HF. In combination with my EQ I need lots of power into HF with the inefficient parallel stat speakers. The Mytek will rarely shut down for only unusual passages in classical music, even with my crazy (to most people) requirements. Even my little Bryston 2.5B SST2 which clips on probably merely 50 watts at 2 ohms since the power supply is skimpy, produces highly detailed, fast, clear sound within its limits. For classical music before Brahms, it is totally powerful enough and enjoyable. Even for Brahms which doesn't have any percussion, it is powerful enough, used at sensible volumes. The little Bryston is not powerful enough for Mahler and cymbal crashes, but the Mytek handles all classical music well.
