Hello,
I am using a pair of Lowther DX2 drivers in a pair of DIY cabs.
My amplifier is a Quad 405-2 with full Net Audio MK3 upgrade.
My concern is that when I switch my Quad 405-2 on, it has a switch-on 'thud'. Is this very dangerous for the DX2 drivers?
I'm aware Lowthers are really made to go with low Valve amps etc. I might think about getting a nice decent integrated Valve amp for my Lowthers.
I would rather not sell the Lowthers as they are not fully run yet. But I have to say they do have a very nice midrange and vocal presentation. And the speed of the lowthers is very good also. I know they lack deep bass, but these are properly the best sounding drivers I have heard in a long time.
Does anyone have any suggestions for some good Valve integrated amps? Something that will match very well for my DX2. I use my system in a bedroom and my listening is very near field. I sit approx 7 ft away from my hifi.
And I listen to all types of music.
Thank you,
Shane.
