Thanks. Also are monoblock always better than stereo all else being equal? The reason I ask is that Anthem has 400 watts / Channel at 8 ohms. It’s hard to find monoblock with similar power without making the budget 5-7 times.
Best amp for Salon 2
I am new here and working on my first setup. I was able to find an excellent deal on Salon 2 as the shop was getting rid of floor displays. Unfortunately they only carry Anthem STR and Mark Levinson in pre-amp and amp. I just heard Anthem and they sounded good. Mark Levinson is significantly expensive. Looking at the specs I could not make out much difference. This set up is going to last for years for me. Are there any better amps out there for Salon 2 ? I would prefer to stay below $25K.

@chayro - Agree. There are some limitations on what the dealer can package but I am considering that option for the same reason you mentioned. @monoblocknova - Thank you for sharing your experience. It helps quite a bit. My only concern with Symphonic line is their limited availability within United States. Did you buy in USA?

Thank you everyone for excellent suggestions. It was a tough call for me. I finally ordered Syphonic Line 40th Anniversary edition a couple of weeks ago. |
