6ohm speaker on a 15w 8ohm 6v6 integrated amp
Here's what I did. I own the Shindo Aurieges MM and the Shindo 6V6 15wt Montille. I use them with Altec Model 19's with excellent results. My room is 20'X 28' and I never get the volume past 10 with CD and 11 with vinyl. Shindo builds his speakers... 
Shindo Cortese - First Impressions
I second and third the sentiments regarding Matt at Pitch Perfect. Great person to deal with and a first class audio dealer. Congratulations on your new amp. I've heard the Cortese at Pitch Perfect and it is indeed wonderful. 
DeVore Orangutan O/96
"It surprises me that you thought the O/96's sounded so similar to the 9's, as they appear to be dramatically different designs."Lowens I agree. I would expect a house sound between Johns speakers but I thought that the 0/96 might go lower with mo...

Any reports from those that may have heard the 0/96 in Montreal this past weekend?

Matt of Pitch Perfect Audio carries Shindo, Auditorium and Devore stated in June that the Orangutans were still being refined by John Devore and were still a few month's out.Last I heard on them. 
Older Altec horn speakers
If you have the space Altec Model 19's are hard to beat. I enjoy my 19's with 16wt 6V6 tube amp and tube pre amp. Very enjoyable. 
Shindo pre w/ Quicksiler amps a good match
Fjn04 I'm running a Aurieges MM with the new Shindo Montille 6V6 version and Shindo interconnects. The Montille with Shindo interconnects is in your $$ range and I doubt that you could do better for the money and then some. If you can, give the Mo... 
Great old speakers that are as good as new ones
Altec Model 19's. I've had speakers costing $5,000 or more and they were good. I just like the 19's with low watt tubes better. More musical IMHO. 
Shindo Reliability

Devore and Shindo match
I haven't had the pleasure of hearing the Devore's, but I have the Montille 6V6 with the Aurieges MM on Altec Model 19's. The Montille 6V6 is a wonderful amplifier and highly recommended with the right speakers. My room is 18 x 26 and with the Mon... 
Anyone here using vintage speakers?
Altec Model 19's in mint original condition. I've owned many of the newer highly "rated" speakers and I enjoy the Altec's more. Low power tube amps + Altec's = music.
