Your Kilpsch Forte II's don't need much power do they Jim??
I want to listen to a pair of those.... Care to send them this way for a month or three??

They rock with 8 watts or so...get louder than I care to listen to them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Really room sensitive though...that's the only reason I kept my EQ, because they are horn loaded compression drivers after all.

I've yet to blow a breaker during high level listening in the dorms... I've got 4kw on tap, but I have blown the breaker turning the gear on twice, confuses the hell outa me.

I don't h ear a turnon thump... I've got that ADCOM remember? I'm kinda fond of the delayed amp turnons and the delayed accessories shutoff //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

LOL, sorry for quality - I was really ripped when I made it (hence all the lighting effect) The video was just to display the multiple devices in the room to explain why the breaker is blowing when I try to add another HT reciever, pointless post actually.

The current setup for the PC sound is...

X-Fi Platnium output with optical cable

VTF-3 MK 2 12" 700watt HSU Subwoofer 1.75 cubes @ 25hz

Harmon Kardon AVR 430 7.1 910watt Receiver

JBL E30 for front left & right

Infinity Primus C25 Center Channel Speaker

It's just that the 13,000 BTU AC unit that I have sucks soo much juice it's hard to have the Computer, 42" Tube, and HT audio on all at once. So I was thinking of using that design by Pete which he makes sound amazing.

Your probabaly right though, by saying "I'd be better off using a more coventional design"

Sounds like your purposes are better served by power management than new speakers...

And don't give Pete too much credit for that design, it's been around for a long time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
