![]() I have tried several and found that the Ibasso DX100 dap sounds great and takes up minimal space. They will not work will with portable players that do not have an amp built in. The max wattage is 5 watts per driver, and they are easily driven by any good headphone amp. The speakers sound amazing for a small room or office. I chose the 16 ohm speakers because I wanted to power them with headphone amps and most recommend 16-300 ohms. I purchased the kit with the FSOL-103 special edition 16ohm drivers. Yes my Tannoy GRF sounds better overall no question or doubt but the midrange magic from the kanspea is hard to forget.įostex and tube depot has convinced me that audio does not need to cost a lot and single drive has merits you cannot get with any other multy driver system. Wow what a sound now they are played on a quad 300B OTL. ![]() The mids are so good that I bought one more kanspea 4” system with the FW105WK to try at home. Yes the bass is not earth shaking from a 4” but gives enough foundation in a smaller room. Now a couple of 100 hours later the system really mellowed out and gives great enjoyment. The voices are super, Miles his trumpet is like he is in room. Wow after initial breaking mid-range magic. Instead of pairing these speakers up with the Fostex amp I choose the tube depot tube cube 7 amplifier. I was told that the highs and mids were in better balance with the lows when used in a bass reflex enclosure. I choose as speaker the Kanspea 4” with the Fostex FW105WK. My girlfriend loved the sound from my system so I thought it was time to get her some audiophile quality system too. When I move into my new office in a few weeks, these speakers - and the Sansui receiver - are going with me.īTW, they actually sounded pretty good with the famous little Lepai LP2020TI amplifier, too! Jazz is just beautiful, but even rock music sounds fantastic as long as you keep it within the limits of these little guys. I am listening to Herb Alpert's latest release as I type this. It took a little breaking in, and I really think it took some additional break-in after using it with the higher powered amp. When playing some rock music, I can feel a breeze from the ports about 1.5 feet back from the speakers. The additional power (about 35 watts per channel instead of the 2 WPC my tube amp puts out) really opened up these speakers! I have the FF105WK drivers in them, and it is amazing how much throw these little guys have when there is some bass present. However, after changing jobs, I ended up bringing them home and hooking them up to a Sansui 2000x receiver than I had mothballed for a few years (I do love than receiver, though). I used them for about 3 years for this purpose, and was very happy with them. I bought this speaker kit to make a pair of computer speakers to be driven by a 2 watt tube amp (a kit from Elekit).
