"High current amps are what is needed, not necessarily high wattage amps,
unless you’re pushing high efficiency horn loaded speakers, or
something like them, although they usually go hand in hand."
I agree, while recently researching class D amps I asked PS Audio about the output current of their M700's Here is the reply....
"The M700's run 350 w at 8Ω and 700 w at 4
Ω. Of course there are times it will peak above this but this is a
general continuous wattage. I hope that helps. Please let me know if
you have any other questions."
I explained that I knew the power rating, I wanted to know the current and received this response.....
"I did not have this Spec so I went to the Designer of the amp and this is his reply.
“it’s
not a good idea to look at the power In terms of amps. It really needs
to be considered in watts to understand the m700s capabilities.”
I found that interesting since I had read the output current of other brands of amplifiers. Not sure what to make of the lack of response.
