Can you share your thoughts on why the horn mono’s would be a better choice than the mid monos?
The horn mono’s have lower gain I find work better with high efficient speakers. i.e. lower noise. My speakers have an efficiency >2.6% and a sensitivity of 96 dB SPL @ 1 watt 2 meters @ 8Ohm. For my system controlling gain is important for good sound quality.
From Quicksilvers site:
The Horn Mono Amplifier is designed specifically for use with very efficient loudspeakers. It has extremely low noise and distortion as well as having 18db less gain than Quicksilver’s standard amplifiers. This avoids the noise and gain problems that normally appear when using horn speakers. The amplifier is designed to sound good at the extremely low levels (milliwatts) that horn loudspeakers require. Many amplifiers actually have higher distortions at these low levels.
