I posted this question in the general speakers forum and got the suggestion of 2 Pi speakers, so I thought I'd ask it again here since you guys seem to be the local experts on Pi stuff.

I'm thinking about getting an Antique Sound Labs aq1003dt which is a 30Wpc push-pull integrated tube amp. When I asked about inexpensive speaker pairing suggestions in the general speakers forum ($500 or less, preferably less) one suggestion was a pair of 2 pi speakers. How well do these speakers pair with tubes in your experience? Given that my room is pretty small (14x11) do you think I could possibly move up to a larger model (like the 3 Pi), or would it sound boomy? I'd appreciate any information on Pi+tubes pairing or just Pi speakers in general that you may be able to offer me.

Thanks

You'll find that the two π Speakers will sound great with 30 watt tube amps. Depending on your willingness to assemble cabinets, you might find some of the larger speakers are in your budget too. Naturally, I'm a bit biased so I'll let others comment further.

Go for the 2 Pi's [message #37484 is a reply to message #37482] Thu, 25 July 2002 05:11 Go to previous message

I've listened to them with 3.5W 2A3 amps and loved the sound! Punchy and well balanced with no sense of not having enough power. Good detailed sound which shows off the quality of the associated components. Highly recommended especially for the $$.
