PS audio m1200

Hi,

I have an ARC Ref 6 preamp with B&W 803 D3 speakers. The M1200’s have a lot of power. I am going to look for a way to demo them. The specs list 600W into 8ohm, 1200 into 4, and stable transients at 2ohms.

I believe the speaker impedance curve has a 3ohm dip. Does anyone have experience to know if these amps are stable at 3ohms with enough power?

 

Thanks

while I agree that PS Audio tends to over value the MSRP of their products, they aren't garbage either. Michael Fremer kept the M1200s he reviewed. I have a Ric Schultz EVS 1200 dual mono (one chassis) based on the same IcePower modules which I have owned for roughly 2 years: it's one hell of an amp and at almost 1/3 the price of the M1200s. Another great option would be LSA Voyager GaN 350, which I also have and can be fund used for ~ $1500

fUNNY, CAUSE THIS WAS MY TAKEAWAY "Putting a much lower quality amp like PS or some others recommended here is not going to result in a great sounding system.'
