Fair question, I have an integrated amp I took time selecting and I’m kinda of the mind that of 250/425 wpc isn’t enough then there’s something wrong with the speakers. The experts suggest starting with the speakers and building around them. I think its pot luck either way you go about it.
change amps or speakers
I am powering Eminent technology LFT8bs with quicksilver M60 monoblocks. No preamp - I am running a dac directly to the amps, which works because with this configuration I am using very little attenuation. Problem is it is obvious that the ETs require more current and/or wattage- the detail is there but not the punch and there are times when I am maxed out on volume at 12 0'clock and need more. Question is do I change the amps or speakers - I love the quicksilvers and put some serious $ into modifications. A well respected friend/tech highly suggested I seek out a used pair of PSB stratus golds. I have a medium sized family room and like detail neutrality but need more rhythm and dynamics. Thanks you.
