does anyone find it amusing that with 1000W continuous (3000 dynamic?) per speaker that this question needs to be asked ... ahhh assuming your not planning party at a lake house.
Mojo, what would you say be the dbSPL of 1000W into an active at 9 feet

118dB. In my 1900 cu.ft. living room, at 10 feet away, on a 1000-8 and a 1000-2, I had them up to 116dBC and that was at -12 on my pre-amp. I don't know how much more the ADAs could handle before self-protecting. In that environment, I listened at -34.
I say again, they are a WAD (Weapon of Aural Destruction). You can destroy your hearing and vestibular senses very quickly and before you know it. If you listen to high dynamic range recordings at a few nominal Watts, the peaks will crush you.

Don't know much about good old ohms Don't know much about big old cones Don't know much about mighty old watts Don't know much about mini old pots
But I do know that I love Axioms much And I do know if all loved Axioms such What a wonderful world this would be
Thanks to all and Sam Cook for the help!

Ian sent pictures of a pair of LFR1100As in piano finished rosewood. LFRs and a pair of matching EP600s getting closer!
Anticipation!

Pics please, Philip. I'm debating upgrading my dual 500s to dual 600s. Ian sent pictures of a pair of LFR1100As in piano finished rosewood. LFRs and a pair of matching EP600s getting closer!
Anticipation!

Will do Mr. Mojo. Should be great. My neighbor has already commented on how good the EP500s sound. Interesting how she smiled through her tears though.
Nice one Mr. Hunt!
Now that ancient tune is stuck in my head.

Sorry about that 2x6spds but at least it's a good tune. I was wondering if anyone would get it!
