Spektor 2

Headroom Notes

84.5 dB at 2.83 V / 1 m on a 6-ohm nominal is about 83.25 dB/W/m — the quietest speaker in this batch by a clear margin, roughly 8 dB below the Klipsch. Paired with a 20 W integrated amplifier it will run out of headroom before the room does.

Amplification Warning

The absence of a published minimum impedance matters more on a cheap speaker than on an expensive one, because cheap amplifiers are what it gets connected to. DALI gives 6 Ω nominal and stops there, so a 2 × 20 W desktop amplifier is being asked to accept an unknown load.
