I saw a pic of the Magico factory and there was a QSC GX3 amp sitting there...I have one of those, and I had to wonder what Magico uses it for. I use mine for live stuff here and there, but its fans are too loud for my recording studio...I have another "pro" amp for that, and old Alesis RA100 that's quiet (no fans). I think PA amps are great at what they're meant for, but well designed hifi amps are generally more refined sounding, and in the case of my 12wpc single ended tube amp through very efficient speakers there's no doubt.
Pro audio amps for a home system
I have been involved with live sound for quite a while, and home systems for a much shorter time. My system consist of a Moon P-5 pre amp, Von Schweikert VR- jr mark 1 speakers, Pro - Ject Rm-9 turntable , etc. my question is this. If i were to use two Crown xls1000 class D amps set up as bi amped would i run into any problems? Also is there a huge sonic difference between a live audio amp, and a more home designed amplifier such as a Rotel, marantz etc?
