High Current Monoblocks


Hi Folks. I'm in the market for some mono amps that are capable of delivering high current. Can be tube or solid state but must have a small footprint. Linestage is an ARC LS26. Any suggestions?

I think Spectron amps are switching and provide high current - is this correct? I know nothing about their sound.

But I want to throw out a general question about high current. I've always judged this solely by how wattage changes with speaker impedence. The closer the amp comes to doubling its power when impedence is halved, the better it is at not being current restricted. An amp that doubled its power with half the impedence would not be current limited, and should be a great candidate.

Are there other measures of how well an amp can deliver current while playing music? What are they?

Thanks, Peter
I'm curious where one sees the specification for how much current an amplifier can deliver. I've always seen watts, never amps. Thanks, Peter
