| Looking for speaker recommendations for CJ Premier 11A Focal would be a good match for the cj 11a as they are fairly efficient with a resonable impedance curve. | |

| Integrated amp for Focal Aria 948 speakers? SS or tube I have a pair of 1008Be's that were powered by a Cary SLI-80 and then a Pass INT30. The Cary was fun rolling tubes in and out.
