speakers for classic system

[laidbackdood]

Well I found a little information on them and they look like they have a sensitivity of over 90 db which is pretty good but not close to 100 which would make them better for lower power amps like yours. But depending on your listening habits you might be fine. If you listen to your music at lower volumes for the most part you might be fine since they seem to cater to the lower powered side of audio. But I would say that the only thing that might be missing is the dynamic capability when it comes to the occasional cranking it up if that is something you ever do. They are going to be harder to drive than the 301's just due to the speaker themselves being more to drive due to more drivers and more cabinet. It really all depends on your listening habits, but I NAD amps have a very good dynamic headroom for there power rating.

Thanks for the info provided and comments.....I used to have a pair of kef carina 11 (pity i dont have these anymore) with this set up and they were 89db 1w 1m and they used to pump out a good sound...esp on my turntable.....I no longer have them unfortunately.....was looking at a pair of yamaha ns 45 too.....basically going to buy second hand.....the nad is rated as low power but like all their amps of that time....eg Power envelope....they can push it out without clipping too much.
I was thinking of getting an audio lab pre/power amp combo 100 watts.....c and p i think.......i remember they were an awesome combo of that era with a good quality phono stage...which i want to partner with my ariston rd 40 which i rate highly.I also have a creek amp 50 watts per channel i think model cas 4040.......I have a good idea this is a quality amp(one channel not working,so need to get fixed)
To me modern speakers are more geared to digital and i do appreciate the clarity and preciseness of digital...once you crank it up...i just want to cover my ears! Vinyl up loud is where its at for me.....anymore thoughts much appreciated.
