Default Every amp in one

The pre/power amps are currently driving a pair of original Mission
752s which together sound staggeringly good.


This prompts me to see if I can find data on the impedance of the 752s
as that may be relevant here.


They are known to be efficient - 91dB, nominally 8 ohms on paper. I
don't have data beyond that, but they were well-reviewed in their day
(mid 90s), so I'm sure there's plenty of into out there. IIRC HiFi World
listed them as "valve-amp friendly" for their efficiency.


OK. That supports the idea that they are probably an excellent match for
the Kraken.

That said, I spent an hour this morning chopping down a large tree.
This was probably better for me than writing the exam. :-)


You know you're still a man if you can chop down a tree!


In that case it took me over 50 years to find out! ;-

Slainte,

Jim
