Good responses so far, but not a lot from mono block advocates and what if any improvement in sound they hear going from or comparing a stereo amp to monoblock amps.
Why monoblocks?
Why run monoblocks? Most amps can handle most speakers, especially those that are 88DB and above in sensitivity. I see pictures of all these speakers being driven in monblock configuration. If the stereo amp can do the job, why spend money on two amps? I mean, what are the benefits?
