Does anybody got any experience/opinions about using this speaker with a 25W tube amp or an Aleph30?
I saw them at a friend's friend's house, which is going to emigrate soon. He is going to sell them and I might get 1st option on them if they are worth buying. I would use them as main speakers on a stereo system together with either a 25W tube amp or an Aleph30. Unfortunately the current owner is not in the country now, so I cannot borrow them to listen too with my system.
Here are their specs and a pic.

TWEETER: K-84-K 1" (2.54cm) Polymer dome compression driver
HIGH FREQUENCY HORN: 90°x40° Exponential Horn

Thanx for all advice/comments.

I have owned various models made from Klipcsh and have always been satisified especially with their efficiency.....I use a pair of tangents as surround speakers in my current home set up

Are those the KG3.5? Don't think so. What tube amps you use?
You got some nice speaker stands - surely no vibration problems 😉

im not using the subs with a tube amp. so theres no problem with jumping around. just gets them out of the way.🙂
im using a bogen db20 push pull from 1950 its only 20 watts
so im sure whatever you setup with those speakers is going to sound sweet
i could order a set of that model for the floor at work.but im living in a apartment so small is good
im going by the make not the model
mine are rated at 75watts peak 300watts model sb1
