Power Amp Question


Question: how to match a power amp to my system using an integrated amp as a preamp.

System:

Triad Gold LCR In-Room Speakers 4-OHM 100-400 watt

Audio Tecnica AT-OC9XL Dual MC cartridge

NAD C356 integrated amp

Rega Aria MK3 (recently added)

 

Thank You

G

Do some research before you make the same mistake others do. WATTS per channel equate to a very small part of the power equation of audio gear. I can show you an amp with 500 watts per channel that wont drive your speakers. Then I can show you an amp with 5 watts per channel that will blow you out of the room. Just make sure you have all the right information when evaluating what you reference is “need more power”! They did not name a company First Watt because they thought it was catchy. They did so because the First Watt is the most important one when done right!
