Shadorne,
I love dynamics and energy and I value hearing exactly what is on a disk. This has its drawbacks, in that quite a few of my disks sound real bad through the Benchmark.
PMC recommend their SB100 that features the PMC 10" flat carbon fibre & Nomex piston driver in a heavily braced and damped cabinet with an effective line length of 2.8m (9ft). The combination of piston driver and PMCs ATL transmission line technology gives the SB100 its outstanding detailed response down to 25Hz with a peak SPL of >116dB
Features
PMC ATL (Advanced Transmission Line) with 2 sections
PMC 10 / 250mm carbon fibre & Nomex piston driver
3 Edge wound voice coil
Matching response for use with AML1, IB1 or IB2 models
Phenomenal bass response down to 25Hz
Shallow cabinet 350mm (13.78)
Specifiable 4mm sockets or Neutrik NL4 input
Recommended amp power up to 250W
Activation option with Bryston PowerPac 300 (SB100-A)
They also recommend using the PowerPac.
Oh and don't mention 'hogs' :-)
Ghasley,
Welcome to the dark side - well thank you ;-) I was pleased to read your views on using the Benchmark with the AML1. I will take your advice on trying the speakers in my room before spending more $$ on a cross over, sub and amp.
Also great point about the CDP.
Tweak1,
Thanks - it is an option to keep what I have plus add a sub, but I think I need to scratch my active PMC itch.
