Just get the amp that sounds the best with your speakers. The only limiting factor would be if you needed to hide the amp in an enclosure.
Living room system: class A or AB amps?
Would class A be suitable for a living room system? Apart from hi-fi listening sessions, it's also used a lot for watching TV.
Would it make more sense to get good class AB amplifiers, which can be switched on permanently without drawing huge amounts of power? I wouldn't want to warm-up an amp first before getting good sound.
For this system, I have so far only purchased the speakers: Focal Stella Utopia Evo. Room is big: 1,200 square feet with openings to hallways.
I'd consider to pair them with Gryphon Mephisto and Pandora. But that's class A...
Opinions and amp suggestions are welcome!
