Best amp for Wilson sasha DAW

monjovi
am I right to conclude from your comments that I’d be better off just using one of the Nagra MSA’s to power these speakers until I find a replacement amplifier?

If the one stereo amp has enough wattage for you and you get the volume you need comfortably without taxing the amp, then I say a definite yes.
As bridging amplifiers has one plus only, increasing the wattage.
Everything else takes a hit.
1: distortion goes up
2: not as stable into low impedance
3: damping factor is doubled (worse)
4: the ability to drive low impedance’s is not as good
I’m sure there are others I can’t think of right now.
I jokingly say, bridging a good stereo amp turns them into a high wattage PA amp.

  georgehifi...were you responding to my Nagra question? If so, thanks!

No sorry I was just letting to OP know what would get the very best from his DAW's.
Looking at your Nagra's though, these look to be very fine amps for a nicely mated speaker, like TAD's ect.
But from what I quickly read, being only a single complimentary pair of Mosfets per channel, I would say not the very best for the DAW's.

 Even if bridged yes you gain more watts, (which you don't really need with 91db speakers) but the problem with bridging a solid state amp is that your current ability is halved and it's ability to dive into low impedance's is also halved.
Sorryi'd never have suggested this/these amps for this kind of speaker with this load to extract the very best from the bass especially, of the Daw's

They are efficient at 91db so a 100w into 8ohm amp will do, but! looking at the mid bass area where all the grunt is needed, this 2.4ohm impedance load combined also with 45 degrees -phase angle loading around that area. https://ibb.co/Xx3TdXr means they are going to be a "current suckers".

You should be looking at amps that will remain stable and with good current ability down to 2ohms. T
Ones that can double that 100w to 200w into 4 and at least 300-350w onto 2ohms, good solid state linear amps will do this for you, and this will then give the very best from the bass of the Sasha DAW’s
