    6 ohm speakers on 8/4 ohm amps ?

    Just got a pair of Technics SB CH610's and they are 6 ohm not my usual thing but they were cheap enough LOL

    Try both and see what you prefer. I think consensus is 4 on valve amps at least.

    Have you considered selling off a lot of your gear and getting some more expensive stuff? I used to be a bit of a collector like you (but not quite as much) and I did that, I haven't looked back since. You must be able to raise quite a lot of money from everything you've bought over the years.

    Just set up the Yamaha CR 820 and it has developed a fault with bass on full it seems to be rasping and popping the speaker same with the other speaker of the same pair so its an amp fault any thoughts on what i could be i cant get to the control as a board in the way of it...

    Back out for a service "Again" when you have a lot of gear stuff like this happens makes you think twice and just own a little bit...

    Update with the Kefs upon testing last night the bass units are working well - ear to the tweeter and zilch on both speakers so i look inside they have a loose wire which can only mean its the tweeter never been connected to the switch for variable output connected the wire to it a viola one T15 lives and sounds superb just need to test the other and book them in for soldering of the wires not factory spec but one sounded really really good....

    Watch this space....
