Speakers and the MicroZOTL
Apart from using the ZOTL as a tweeter amp, does anyone know of any ultra high efficiency speakers/mini horns that could be used with the ZOTL? Wouldn't it be great to have the ZOTL as a headphone amp as well as an amp powering a small pair of speakers for say the computer?- evilcthul
