” Unfortunately, nominal impedance and sensitivity are not rated at this time. However, one indicator of the power these models can absorb would be in the marketing material, which shows these speakers being used with a Crown DCI 8|300, which can deliver 300W per channel into 8 and 4 ohms.”

” I just have no interest in listening to music that doesn’t move me. This little player does this nearly as well as my vinyl rig on well done CDs.

” The PM2 comes with a similar pad made of pleather, but it seems that the driver is inherently tuned with slightly laidback treble. Though I’d hesitate to call it dark; it has nothing on the Audeze, but it has less treble than the Hifiman HE500.”
