@scothurwitz, what do you mean “Pass Labs little xa30.8”? That sucker weighs 93 lbs! But I do agree, it’s a great amp.
For efficient speakers, how much difference does an amp really make?
I have ascend sierra RAAL tower speakers with 90-93db efficiency and 300W continuous power handling. I’m powering them with dual outlaw M2200 monoblock class AB/G amps rated at 200W into 8 ohms. It sounds good...but i can’t help but wondering if a different amp would provide greater clarity and low-end grunt.
I have been curious about an older adcom amp like the GFA-555 II or perhaps a parasound halo amp like the A23.
To those who have had multiple amps in your setup, did you find significant sonic differences between amps, or is a subtle thing? I don’t want to start collecting amps, but I don’t want to deny myself the chance to improve my system further. Thoughts?
