Stuck point!

Hi, 
I am returning to the experts to get an opinion. I sold my PS Audio M 700 mono blocks thinking I was ready to pull the trigger on the Wellsenton R800i. I know their are great similarities between some of the Line Magnetic amps. around the same price point of just under $3,000, almost identical except for tubes. So, their are options if I chose to go with another well known brand. Here are the issue/s..  I have a fairly small treated room and I keep hearing it will “heat the room up.” I don’t know if it will be problematic or an overstatement. Plus the issue of bass. It may not produce good base which is a problem since I loved the class D amps bass. Lastly, speaker sensitivity, most of my speakers have 87db and up except for the LS50’s. Thanks, don

I run class Ds for all the speakers in the summer and valves and class Ds spring, winter, and fall. It’s to hot where I live to run valves and an AC. It just doesn’t make sense. The three months with class ds is my upgrade and tune up time for the valve amps... Works out great...

The Boom Boom issue.. that's pretty easy, Treat, the room, decouple the speakers/subs and DSP the bass section.
