Amplifier's Amps?


Hello All!

I wanted to check in with some of you as I've come across different pieces of hardware in my lineup. Can anyone explain to me how amps or amperes increase or affect a speaker's performance? I have both an HK Signature 2.1 amp and a Parasound A52. The Signature is priced lower than the Parasound in the used market and has lower watts per channel but has over three times the amps (100 vs 30).

Any help would be greatly appreciated

I had one of those amps, I really liked it! It had good dynamics and a beefy bottom-end. I attribute those qualities to the hi-current design. H/K has been making ultrawide bandwidth, hi-current amps for quite some time and the Sig. 2.1 is a very good amp and dead-silent, no fan...
