This is the biggest speaker I ever own so far. Due to its size and small room in Hong Kong, I have to gave it up after 3 years use in 2006. I use 300B to drive it but with its 90dbslp sensitivity, it is still unable to drive it to satisfactory sound level and quality. Later I build a Aleph 60 and it sound much better but the booming is still there due to small room effect. So I have to gave it up and sold it for 10k HKD!
This is a very nice speaker I brought in 1995. I sod it out in 2005 and I am a bit regret to sell it!
Back in over 20 years, I own a pair of Celestion SL6 speaker. It was a very difficult load speaker and not many power amplifier can drive it well. I have Quad 405 at that time but this speaker is still hungry for power! In the last few years, I use this speaker as my test speaker when I build my amplifiers. This is the only picture that I have left for this speaker.
Even my pair of Celestion SL6 is gone, my brother still keep a pair of SL6si.
