However my excitement at hearing decent sound in the more casual living room environment has me yearning for more. RAAL Towers could provide the “more”, especially fitting because there are no subwoofers upstairs.
2. Source for the Living room is a work in progress. Right now during experimentation I’m using an old Pioneer AVR as a stereo amp (60 W/ch @ 8 Ohms), and Apple Music streaming (CD quality). This will migrate to an integrated amp or receiver (80-100 W) supporting DLNA from my NAS, Apple Music, and Sony SACD/BR player.
