Can the Manley Neoclassic 300B handle a 2 ohm load


Hi all,

l am very interested in this amp, however my speakers have a load dip down to 2 ohms, although nominally they are 3 ohms plus. Rated at 96db efficency however.

Would the Manley be OK with this type of load, or will the bottom end be MIA?

Cheers Simon

Don't be red Gregadd,
You could use it as a preamp or 300B power amp 2W/ch onto 8Ohms.
To 2Ohms probably not even half-watt.
From the specs,
These speakers need a welding machine type of amplifier that very hardly can be found among tube amps or even class A SS amps don't ya think?
