In Reply to: Re: A Five-Channel SET Amp for Home Theater? YES!!! (link enclosed) posted by Mark on December 02, 1999 at 16:40:54:
Mark,The 3 ohm drop would definately be a tough load for a Single Ended tube amp. I would consider a push-pull tube amp for the Dunlavy SM-I speakers you are considering.
Michael,I must concure. Just finished reading Harvey Rosenberg's "Understanding Tube Electronics II" and quickly realized that my SM-I's are not well suited for an SE amp. However, I might try a push/pull design and see what happens. Or better yet reassign the speakers to a purely HT role and buy or make a pair of more efficient speakers for dedicated listening. My only caveat is that my wife will kill me if I start talking "another set of speakers" Any ideas on how to make an end around move on her, i.e. make a pair of my own in my covert lab. Any suggestions on where I can get my hands on some high efficiency drivers for a DYI project?
Mark
I agree, impedence should not swing more than a couple of ohms minimum/nominal when using SETs.
