I suggest you relocate before you decide on speakers, especially planar speakers, then think about amplification. Should you decide to go with mono Thresholds, the SA 1's might be a better way to go.
Threshold S/300 Used In Mono Mode
Hello All,
I love the Threshold S/300 I brought used so much I plan to purchase a second one and use them in mono to drive the Magnapan 1.6 I plan to buy as soon as I relocate.
My question is, can these amps be used in this manner and how can I accomplish this feat? Is it a difficult thing to do? Is there anyone using these great power amps this way at present? By the way, I am using a Classe DR-5 pre amp and the sound I am getting is wonderful, full and very musical. I believe the sound will be greatly improved when I get the Magnapans involved.
My music preferences tend towards small and large scale orchestral and choral classical works as well as large a small scale modern jazz works and big band music. I love a wide, tall and large soundstage with plenty of front to back depth. I look forward to all comments and suggestions. Thanks all.
Bob
