High current amp search
Hello, so as the title says, I'm looking for a 200+ wats amp (8ohm) that will double it's power down to 2 ohms but importantly also check all the audiophile boxes so strong, articulate, fast bass, smooth resolving mid-range and extended non fatiguing highs. It's proving to be rather difficult because hardly any manufacturers list output into 2ohms. Budget is around 4000$ so I'm looking at mostly used. Besides something like the Krell FPB 300/400 CX which can be had for that much , what else can be recommended?

@ditusa thank you and also for letting me know, I do think you’re right |
Thanks for suggestions. Speakers are definitely staying, I adore them. And are irrelevant. The amp has to be able to drive any speaker I may acquire in the future. The argument that high current amps are somehow less refined or relaxed sounding I'll take with a grain of salt since most high end amps out there ara high current designs. No one is paying those prices for amps that sound strained. It fact it would be a low current amp that will strain with harder loads. I refuse to compromise on sound because a speaker is not an easy load. High sensitivity speakers have their own drawbacks. It tubes and SET's are your thing, great. They're not for me. |
