"Endgame System"5 Components
A vinyl-first setup built around a classic LP12 turntable, a tube phono stage, a tube line preamp and a tube power amp driving sensitive vintage-style speakers. It delivers a warm, natural midrange that brings vocals and acoustic instruments close, while trading off the deepest bass weight of larger modern towers.

Lowest frequency response across the system’s components. Approximate — a component is excluded only when it declares an amplifier wattage without also declaring a sensitivity figure, so an amplifier that happens to report a sensitivity slips through and can pull the reading down.
Drive difficulty99.0 dB/W
99.0 dB/W85.0 dB/W
Speaker sensitivity normalised to 8 ohms. Approximate — we do not record whether a figure was quoted per watt or per 2.83 volts, so a non-8-ohm speaker can be out by up to 3 dB.
