The UPA 700 is rated 80 watts into 8ohms and 100 watts into 4 ohms.
I was considering the Airmotiv tower T1s and the C1 Center speaker.
Is the UPA700 out of it's depth or will it work with this setup.
Any experience or opinions welcome
John

Size of room? Loudeness expectations? Any room treatments?
Electrically, it should work fine.
How about pre-pro? Outputs from a receiver or dedicated piece?
Ever considered the SAME funds to be spent on BETTER 2 channel?

One other question, if i may?
What ELSE have you listened to? For the price of the T1s, you can audition a LOT of speakers from a dozen or more manufactureres....
IOW? It is VERY competitive.
If you live anywhere near a good store, not necessarily a 'Magnolia', than arrange to hear some stuff.

SOME in the B&W line are Awful, from an electrical standpoint. High phase angles, low sensitivity and impedance dips. The '600' series is less prone to this than the much more $$$ 800 lineup. |
