Although so much of what we are discussing is subjective, and even subject to our own variations in mood, I found the Mini Torii and Klipsch Heresy combination to be ideal. First music I tried with this pair were solo cello suites (unaccompanied Bach interpretations by Yo Yo Ma), and it was reproduced with such uncanny clarity and strength. Imlistened to the entire CD....twice through because, being very familiar withmit, or so I thought, I felt as though I were listening to it for the first time. Subtle bit of information came through that I just hadn't noticed before.
The HIIIs are a few dB more efficient than the HIs I was using, but there is more to this than specs on paper. You know how unforgiving Klipsch Heritage can be, and the overall character of this combination was NOT one I would describe as relaxed. It was brutally honest and for me extremely realistic...palpable, and demending of my attention. There are some thing you could do to tame the response if you wanted, even to the point of using and adjustable L-pad on the woofer and or tweeter to tame things down. The treble roll-off attenuator on the MT can be very handy for this as well. Power-wise, the Mini-Torii was perfect....for me, at least. Steve of course can field questions about the amp better than anynof us, and I am just sharing my experiences with this particular speaker combo.
