RMAF Loudspeakers?

Stereodad, I'm going to be using low power tube amps. Daedalus speakers do not fit the profile of a speaker that will be optimal with this type of amplification.

Thanks for the reply,good luck in your speaker quest.

Tvad,
So, it sounds you've narrowed down your speaker's choices down to...???
I've been following your postings of late, and dying to know the results of your search.
I used to own Silverline speakers, as well, and also looking at high efficiency speakers+ low power tube amp combo.

Tvad,

My nascent audiophile spouse and I attended all 3 days of RMAF...it was our first audiofest. We would agree the Classic Audio Loudspeakers/Atma-Sphere/Tri-Planar sound was incredible - it conveyed us back to the venue where we first heard this band, Fuzzy and the Bluesmen, live in San Diego! Also, concur with your assessment of the Merlin/Joule Electra room...Bobby played some Boz Scaggs - Boz never sounded better over a stereo rig.

Tvad,

I'm also interested in where you end up along the low power tube amp/hi efficiency speaker road. I've also thought about setting up a system along those lines, maybe as an upgrade for my current two-channel A/V second system that runs pretty well currently off a vintage, low wattage SS Yamaha receiver.

I recall you endorsing Klipsch Forte. Are those in the big leagues in your opinion for the type of system you describe or more of a minor league (though cost effective) contender?
