Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics?


It seems that in looking around for amplifiers and integrated amps that double their power as the impedance is halved (high current), they seem to be in a minority. Is it just more costly to build good-sounding high current electronics and the market demand for them just isn't there, or what?

As a former owner of VK1000 mono's and many other Pass 600 sized monster blocks I for one don't miss having to place amps of that size any more.

95dB and above speakers driven by an 8 watt 300B SET is as good as it gets for truly refined sound. But if you're not listening to acoustic music, and are of the RR family, then quality of sound isn't what you're after as much as volume of sound. Dare I say it...acoustic rules!
