Wide Bandwidth Amplifiers Problems


I am not very tech savvy but am trying to understand what the drawbacks are to wide bandwidth amplifiers, are they prone to some sort of distortion or interference and how can this be avoided? Not sure if it's possible but there was one post saying a wide bandwidth amp picked up a radio station, I would not want that and I dont see how you would prevent that! What's possible/how to avoid? ThanksĀ

Some wide bandwidth amplifiers can go into oscillation when used with some speaker cables. This can be fixed by adding a zobel network to the speakers binding posts. BTW, there is no audible consequence for this inexpensive fix.
