@elliottbnewcombjr In my application, the woofers on the Cambridge get excited with the IRS and vice versa but at a much lower level. I have not found it to add coloring or become obstructing.
Dual speaker system
Has anyone tried a dual speaker system with a pre-amp with two outputs? Mind you, not four speakers playing at the same time, but having a system with two separate amp/speakers combinations for different moods and music—e.g., a SS tied with floor standers and a tube amp with monitors.
I’m trying this now with my monoblock Mc connected to Sonus Faber floor standing speakers and then the alternative is a low fi tube amp paired with some Q Acoustic speakers.
Of course the Mc/SF is much better, but I kinda like having a different sounding system to switch to and I like the idea of having more gear to tinker with!

@w123ale One of the reasons I picked Parasound amps was because you can loop them together. They have a set of RCA out on the back.

@elliottbnewcombjr that is true BUT there are so many other things in a listening space that impact the frequency response and overall sound of the room/speaker that a couple of small woofers don't really make a discernible (or measurable impact). In any case, I have thick leatherette covers for the woofer boxes of the Cambridge which stay there except for my kids usage (when they remember to remove them). I tuned the room (passive treatments) with this in mind. My bigger concern is the behavior of the large drivers and radiators on the pair of subwoofers, the 2x12 cabinet for my electric guitar and the echoes and resonance created by my acoustic and Spanish guitars (thus they stay inside their cases). 2x12 is also covered in thick leatherette. |
