Luxman’s Class A-B are VERY close in sound to their own Class A. I’ve found that the "watts per channel" mean little, it’s all about the current they produce, and the headroom.
Class A amplifier alternative?
Hi everyone,
I am looking for an amp with about 200-300 watt/8ohm/channel for my speakers. People say that Class A is the best to have. However, with this power, Class A amp would be super heavy (for me) The amp at this power is usually 100 lbs or higher. I wonder if there is any other solution here that doesn't compromise the sound quality? My budget is $3000 (used items).
Just FYI, I once tried class D but the sound is very clinical, thin and sterile in my system.
Thank you!
