Tom Z - you'll like the TC9s. I used them to build a pair of desktop speakers for my wife over Christmas. I also used a single ND105 as a sub in it's...

You are correct on the TCP115-4. The DX20 is also the 4 ohm version. I do need to listen to these in another room. My man-cave is a little bright sounding,...Leave a comment:
