I am interested in the Musical Fidelity A300 integrated amp. My current system is a Cambridge Audio A3I int. amp,Cambridge Audio CD4SE cdp, MSB Link Dac III, Klipsch reference 3 mains and M&K V125 sub. My question is would this be too much amp for my system? Thanks for you opinions.
I own the A3 MF amp.85 watts/8 ohms,170/4 ohms.I don't think you will need the additional power of the A300 with the efficiency of the Klipsch,and you will save $500. Tracer
I have several MF amps/integrateds but am not familiar with Klipsch ref 3 speaker, but if you have sub woofer that does not have its own built in amp, you may want to go with A300 for 150w to control sub. Both A3 and A300 have preamp out RCAs to allow easy bi-amping with another MF power amp. If sub has own amp, and klipsch are just stand mounted monitors, A3 should do the job.
Sorry, I forgot to say: if you think you might use different speaers down the road without the high efficienty rating as the Klipsch, stay with the A300. If you have the $ the extra watts can't hurt.
