Wow dude.....
And you can get that baby in HOT PINK !!!!
Nice that there are other options out there for 3 channel amps....
Curious as to what the power is at 4ohms on 3 channels...
Quote:Originally Posted by Morik So I think I'm going to go with the W4S 3x500w amp (1000w into 4 ohms) for the SS8s & HT2C.
I realize the recommended power is up to 250w on each of those, but having more never hurts, right? Its 25%...

Morik, sorry I didn't clarify that statement further....
My Wyred amp is a 7 channel amp 300x5, 4x250 for my large rig.... while the D-Sonic amp is only a 5channel amp 500x3 2x250 with my SoundScapes.... my bedroom is small and I...
Quote:Originally Posted by Morik You mean the XPR-5? It does 400/600 into 8/4 ohms all channels driven, 500/750 into 8/4 with 2 channels driven.
By contrast, the XPA-1 does 500/1000 into 8/4.
Also, the XPA-1 has a higher S/N ratio...
I'd be aligned to the choice of the XPA-5 for the higher power.
For another option - Also take a look at Wyred4Sound & D-Sonic Class D amps - very smooth and powerful...
