Is there any obvious advantage for monoblocks?

seperate power supplies ( this is a big one)
better dynaimics and imaging (another big one)
channel seperation ( big one )

i like my pse studio v monoblocs i just picked up another pair for my bi-wired alons. that a total of 4 monoblocs.

that will give me 220rms per channel of very, very clean power.

hope that helps !!

in reality alot depends on the design and efficency of your speakers.

i have heard alot of stereo amps that sound great and alot of crappy sounding monoblocs.

the advantage to a great sounding monobloc to a great sounding stereo amp is the monblocks will sound a little better because of the above ( all things being equal).

hope that helps!!
