Title: Advice on pairing amp with speakers
Post by lastchancerecords on 01/08/13 at 22:15:22

I'm in the process of putting together a better system and really like what I see in the Decware reviews. The build quality and the fact that it's hand built in the US is exactly what I'm looking for. I will be matching the amp with a pair of 1976 Klipsch Cornwalls and a Pro-Ject Debut III turntable. I plan to upgrade the tt to a VPI at some point. Any fellow Cornwall owners that can offer insights into pairing? I'm torn between ordering a Super Zen Triode or the Torii. Thanks!

I have a pair of older SE-84CS(lects) bridged (6wpc) that I used with a vintage pair of Cornwalls. Really nice combo , but a little bright in my room, which was a little small for them (12x13)

I would have loved to have heard them with a Torii, I think it would have been a better match in my room, especially with the ability to trim the upper frequencies.

Depending on your room size and musical tastes, I doubt 2wpc will be satisfying. If you can afford a Torii I say go for it.
