High current amp search

Dear friends: With my deep respect to all of you to much posts about HC amp and several no sense ones.

The OP certainly it's not yet aware of over 10% THD in his system reproduction just in his subs but eventhat he is asking for that amp that doubles its power as impedance goes down ( 8-4-2-1 ...).

Atmasph and some other gentleman already posted disadvantages if the amp runs to hard duethat will develops higher distortions. The issue here is that how the OP will be totally sure that the amp choosed is not the rigth amp for his speakers if he is not truly aware of " which " kind of distortions are coming and developed by the amp and no from other system link.

I posted that the Classé DR 3-VHC handle satisfactory the Apogee Scintilla that goes down 1 ohm and 79 db sensitivity ( 4ohms) and the OP or any of you ask for the rated output of Classé amps that is 25 watts in pure class A at 8ohms.

So please analize the sense of several posts against that Apogee/Classé high quality performance with only 25 watts at 8ohms. Yes D.Reich was really good power supply designer . The Krell in those times puts 1.6k watts at 1 ohm against the very humble Classé and both runs satisfactory the Scintilla and some prefered the Classé over the Krell. in that speaker regards.

@rauliruegas ok i get it, you hammered your point home, multiple times. Honestly though 10% thd? Have you measured my system? I don't know your credentials but your assumptions are out there at best. My speakers are very well designed and are not THAT difficult to drive. The amp is not going work that hard with them. Also they are very capable of working full range without having to neuter them at 80hz or elsewhere. If you are so compelled to run your speakers that way because of your persistent claim about distortion, have at it. I disagree because I used to do just that, as in high pass my speakers at 70 or 80hz and the system sounded like crap. You seem to have a hard time accepting that people don't agree with you. Funny like that this place is, the world that is. People will disagree. Also you don't know anything about my subwoofer. And why is it such a problem that I want a high current amp? If not presented with a demanding load or will not work that hard and I don't know what speakers I'll own in the future. That's like saying you shouldn't ever own a sports car with a V12 because it's always going to work hard. Well not if you don't put your foot to the floor. In fact if you drive it lightly it won't even break a sweat

@rauliruegas 

Agree with your post. Incidentally, the base Classé DR-3 was rated at 25wpc, but the DR-3 VHC was capable of 40wpc. Great classic amps.

Come to think of it, it's a vicious circle. The amp makers rarely tell you 2 ohm output, the speaker makers rarely list minimum impedance so how are you supposed to make an informed decision about matching your gear?? That's why this whole "hobby" is such a hit and miss. Honestly, I'm starting to think this is being done maybe on purpose. If we had all the information we need readily available, without having to contact the manufacturer and getting the info (or maybe not) far fewer amps and speakers would be sold and resold. Of course there is more to it than impedance matching but it's one variable that could be eliminated at the start.
