Best high current SS Mono amps

Yada, thatnks for the nice sentiments. There seems to be a synergistic match between the Pass 600s and the CLSs. Definitely put them on your short list. Wolcotts are high current for Tube amps but can't compare to a SS on paper but they may actually put more current/voltage into an electrostatic load. BTW the Wolcotts do NOT lack slam in my system. YMMV and I respect Fcrowder's point of view, as well he knows. I'm just happy that he has found something that works in his system as I have mine!!

I've owned or demo'd most of the amps mentioned in this forum and can tell you hands down that a stereo Krell, say a leftover 350c or a new 400cx would do more than adequately!! Unless all of your equipment and cables are absolutely state of the art (and your electric service is as well), the benefits of mono-blocks are highly questionable.

This is the kind of response I hoped for! It seems that every contributor has had lots of experience, equipment and knowledge! I am really pleased and I know that I am headed in the right direction.

To help answer Dave-b: I have everything sitting on Aurios 1.2 or pros. Almost everything is sitting on a Symposium shelf too, from Ultras to sveltes. I am using Quattro-fil xlrs from preamp to amp. I mix up the King Cobra V2, BMI shark, and several Elrod sig 3 power cords throughout. I was told by a good friend (a real tolerant friend who loves SET tubes and horns) that the groundwork is done and instead of a big plasma TV, the amp has to be upgraded.

If anyone has anything more to contribute, please do so! You are the coolest guys on the planet! I am not going to waste my money this time! Thank you!

I use the Pass X600 for my 4 ohm Dynaudio Contours 3.3. Lots of power with amazing detail, even at low volume. Team-up with a good tube preamp and you should be quite happy.

You might try the Classe CAM-350's, a real bargain ($7,000 pair new). These are dead quiet, high current, 350-watt channel monoblocks, and sound as good on my Andra II's, which are very efficient, as they did on the original Andras, which simply ate power. Good luck.
