Is powerfull Amps only for low sensitivity speakes?
obatuObatu, don't just get caught up in the amount of wattage needed for the sensitivity. Yes this is important, but only half of the question/answer. As you have impedance also to deal with as well as negative phase angle. These mean how much current is going to be drawn from the amp, not just the wattage. EG: As you can have a pair of speaker like Wilson Alexia which will be driven to sound far better with a 25w ML2 monoblock than a 1000w amp that has not much current ability. Cheers George |
This "more power is better" jazz is pretty sophomoric advice. Watts are practically irrelevant. The two questions one needs answers to are "Does my speaker need a current source or voltage source?" and "How far are you listening?" Benign, high impedance loads tend to do better with amps that provide disciplined current. Reactive, low impedance loads do better with voltage sources using some feedback. Then you have to consider the behavior of the topology and class. It’s WAY more complicated than watts. |
