i am looking to replace my Krell with tube amps,


however Cary, Canary said that none of their amps can power Hansen Emperor because of 87db sensitive.

Anyone have their experience care to recommend.

I am upgrading my Aesthetix Calypso to Callisto sgn. with 1PS.
my room is size is 30 x 25' x 9th height in my basement. but i am using only half the space that is 15' x 25' x9'.

i have not had a chance to listen demo on Aesthetix Atlas mono, Ayon orthos ii and vulcan, Tenor 175s.

thanks
Chris

You don't mention impedance curve, which can be as important as sensitivity. If you want maximum sound levels in a room that size it will be hard to find any tube amp that will give it to you. Part of the equation of sound level is reflected sound waves and they will not know what part of the room you are using if the whole room is open. I don't know you feel about near field listening but in a room that size it might be your best alternative with tubes if you like loud levels.
