To all I have worked modding electronics for years .For $800 the Xpa 2 is a good deal,BUT it is grainy , if you replace the 7 fuses with Hifitung Supreme fuses for$300 the quality is at least 15% better and worth it .The Odyssey Stratos amp especailly the plus,or extreme is far better even the standards Stratos is .Not as much power but night and day better parts quality and much higher damping factor for control as well as much more current delivery .
I A B these just stock and the Odyssey is far more refined and is 160wpc and 250into 4 ohms.watts mean little the quality and the current capabilitys on demand is far more important ,and this includes NAD too soft,and they also have nowhere the continuous current .The use terms like
peak current meaning for a fraction of a second. The Odyssey is even steady into 2 ohms!!
