wixy Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Just hoping for some thoughts from Cornscala owners on amp matching? I'm considering a 300b amp but would 8-9w be enough and would it do rock music well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Bum Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 This little calculator comes pretty darn close to the actual spl measurements in my room/system. You can plug in your room size, speaker sensitivity, peak spl, and distance to speakers, and solve back for required amp power. Try it out: http://myhometheater.homestead.com/splcalculator.html I'm guessing it would do rock pretty darn well, but may have trouble with the Mahler and other bombastic, demanding material.

crd97086 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I had a modified Cornwall with the Selenium drivers, 2380 horns and Crites 500/5000 crossover. It did not require anymore power than my LaScala or Cornwall. My understanding of electronics is darn small, but the Cornscala is nothing different from a Cornwall than an equally efficent compression driver. The Cornwall a lower efficency than the LaScala and it still produces a SPL of 100dB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
