This brings out the best performance in the partnering amplifier.<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>The heavy Birch Ply cabinets are well braced, and tapered to reduce resonances, both in the panels themselves, and in the internal speaker spaces.
