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?

So far the efficient Class D amps I've tried have not presented the clarity, bass weight, and refinement with the (somewhat difficult load) speakers I own now. (I need some power and current damn it!). So I continue to look at Class AB designs. But I'm not interested in a 125 lb behemoth either; just a reasonably priced high current amp(less than 3k ) that doesn't take 2 people to lift and isn't old as the hills and in line to be re-capped soon. An amp with good sonics too.

Tvad , you may be comparing apples to oranges . The new amp is likely quit different in design , there may be other reason's it dosn't sound bright other than just the double down aspect . Is the output the same on both amps into an 8ohm load . Size of transformers can have a great effect too . I guess if an amp is well under powered for the situation doubling into 4ohm would likely help . Glad your happy with your new amp though .
