VAC 301 versus VAC 200 as monoblocks


Has anybody compared VAC Phi 301 stereo with two VAC Phi 200 as monoblocks?

I have a large room with 87 db Avalons and like to listen to full orchestral music.

I see that you listed your 300.1 for sale.

Why not pick up a 2nd 300.1, run them in mono and have the best of both worlds...vivid AND organic???

I too was wondering this.

I suspect, for about the same $, that running a pair of 200's in mono may slightly outperform a stereo 300.1. However, I have not heard the 200.

If you want the real answer, call Kevin @ VAC. Im sure he'd give you an honest list of the pro's & con's.
