The one watt lie….

The subject was a general statement about a 5 watt amp which I don think Klipsch ever produced. How you can relate that to Klipsch speakers, mods and glass houses makes no sense.
 
I like pi watts. But then I can never figure out exactly where to set the volume knob...

IME, in my set-up, using K-horns, the sweet spot is 13 tube watts. Nice full sound.

The point of this thread is kinda pointless! Everyone has different needs and expectations! Who cares?! :dunno:Just sayin’.

Exactly. We all have different listening spaces. We all listen at different volumes. There will never be any agreement. But I 100% disagree with the original statement that you can't have a "full sound" without a lot of power. It's a little bit harder but can be done if you know what you are doing.

Now carry on...

Because of its size. The amplification needs of a small subwoofer and those of a large-volume cabinet high sensitivity horn speaker are at polar opposite ends of the power spectrum.
