Yes, I knew it was a tube amp but did not know that was characteristic of all tube amps. I just finished reading a thread with posts by Atmasphere and Almarg and others about amp design and was reading a review about the Copeland amp. The statement about it putting out the same power confused me with all the other info I had just tried to absorb.
A lot of what they wrote about was way over my head but rather than just plead ignorance and let it go at that, I have decided to try to educate myself about amps, and specifically, matching amps to speakers.
I think part of the reason I don't like my system as much as I think I should be able to given the components, is that there may be a amp / speaker mismatch although I am experimenting with room placement and will be bringing in a different source soon enough.
Ralph, that link keeps appearing in other threads so I guess it is about time I dove in...Thanks.
