I own a Sunfire for my home theater because it runs cool fits in a shelf and doesn't offened, but it is lacking the ulimate high end 2 channel and my EAD Powermaster 2000 has more of everything (finesse, details, control, depth,etc). The pass will probably sound better for music, but will be missing something if you listen at THX levels (just a little bit), just make sure you have a good sub, and roll off some of that bass.
Amp Advice for newbie
Buying Nautilus 802's and 804's with HTM1 center. What difference will I get from say a higher quality amp with lower power like a Pass X5 versus say a higher power amp like a Sunfire 400W per channel? Getting much advice, do I want more wpc at good quality or lower wpc at better quality? Trying to manage my expectations and budget.
