To the people claiming you want a certain class of amp to play "demanding" metal is wrong. I run @atmasphere class D and a tube phono and pre and am completely satisfied with speed and detail. All amps will work, test a few if you can. Oh and I play death metal to grind to hardcore to classic rock and acoustic. All sound fantastic and I listen at around 76db. Avoid advice from those with sweeping generalizations.
Accuphase or Leben for heavy metal
Guys, I have a short and practical question. I have an opportunity to buy either Accuphase E600 or Leben CS600X at good price. I listen to a wide range of music, but particularly interested in which if these two amps is better for heavy metal particularly. Under all other equal conditions, speakers are easy to drive 90db Piega at the moment. Maybe none of these two, which is also an option.
