Plinius SA103 or SB301 ?


Hi,

how do you define the sound of these power amps and which model do you prefer?

Thanks.

If you like Class A sound go for the 103 if 125Wpc is enough.  If you're ok with Class A/B and need its 310Wpc then the 301 may be a better choice.  Just based on sonics I’d go for the sweet sound of the 103, but that’s me.  Hope this helps, and best of luck. 

I thought of these amps for my B&W 801S3. The room is not very large - 26mq -  so the SA103 may be sufficient.
Thanks Soix.

Yeah, the 103 should be fine and I’d think would sound better with your 801s.  The 103 may only have 125Wpc, but it’s Class A with a huge power supply and tons of current and headroom so you should be fine.  I think that’s a great pairing!

Hi

I noted that the electricity consumption value of the SA103 is not the same for all units: 750W, 900W and 1100W.
Why these differences?

Thanks.
