Classe Delta CA-5300


I just purchased an Anthem Statement D2v to go with my existing 5.1 system with Revel Gems, Voice, and Embraces. I am currently using a Krell KAV-500 and is considering upgrading the Krell. I mostly listen to Jazz and watch movies on this system. I am looking into the Classe CA-5300. I would appreciate opinions as to how the Classe amp would match with my existing equipments.

Thanks

Yuh know, I too am looking into this amp. However, I just discovered something very disturbing. According to their own literature, and the measurements taken during a recent review at HTM, this amp puts out is spec'ed 300WPC into 8ohms, but can't handle anything past 190wpc into 4 ohms.

Anyone else notice this? What's the deal??
