Pro or hi-fi amp, which one would you choose?


I would perfer a pro amplifer because I am familar with them and are built like a tank. They also perform flawlessly in sound production and are reliable. Some might disagree with me but hi-fi amps are way to expensive. What are the qualitys you get from Krell that QSC doesn't have or vs. versa? What are the benefits? I would like to know what you think.

Here's a pro audio guy who tried an "audiophile" Pass power amp. He was "astounded"

Sean, have you heard some type of a transformer placed between high output impedance amp and speaker. Audio Asylum had a thread on this maybe 2 weeks ago. Looked like a good way to improve damping factor. Any thoughts?
I will try to find the thread but it may not be easy.
Also, I tried and tried to find your comments about line arrays but couldn't. You had mentioned some inherent problems with the design - don't know if it was imaging, comb filtering, etc. but could you describe again. Thanks!

Thanks Sean, I agree on the active speaker vs. passive.
