You can probably get a better stereo amp than monoblocks at the same price. If you compare monoblocks amps to a stereo amp of the same design and watts per channel then monoblocks will have the better performance, but at a higher price tag.
Stereo or monoblocks
I recently bought a pair of the JBL HDI-3800 speakers. I also own a McIntosh C-2300 preamp. Should I buy a used McIntosh mc402 stereo power amp or try to find a pair of a different brands monoblocks? The new Schiit Tyr has my interest.
