Hey guys,
New here. I am lusting after some tubes and need some advice.
My system consists of:
Hafler IRIS Pre Amp/Tuner/CD Player with Audio Alchemy DTI and DDE 1.0. Stereo subs each powered by a Hafler DH-200 crossed over at 70 Hz. Acoustat Spectra 11s powered by an NAD 2600A. I am thinking of replacing the NAD with an ST-120. The Spectras are only about 85db efficient and drop to around 2 ohms in the higher frequencies. Considering that the 120 would only 'see' 70 Hz and above, would it have enough juice? The NAD is pretty stout and does have to work fairly hard to drive the 11s.
I listen fairly loudly at times, but not as much as when loud meant good. What say you?
Thanks,
Chestermo
