SET v. Pushpull
@atmasphere  +1 If people want to make 85 dB @ 4 Ohm or lower speakers they need to cough up and make active versions or just make them more efficient. People listen to speakers at show rooms with amps that are not practical at home. They get the ... 
Experiences moving from high-power to lower-power system
@shkong78 500 Watts of SET per channel? How much heat do the amps put out?. 
Hypex N core module
@jackd nuprimeaudio stuff looks nice but I think the output from them is not competitive with rest of the market offering at this price. That may not be important for lot of folks I assume.  Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR): 91dB @ 10W is this competit... 
Legacy Aeris owners which amp do you use and why?

Looking for an amp....Opinions about Odyssey or Bel Canto audio anyone?
@jackd I am not talking about stereophile review + measurements. But just specs like other vendors do. A full detailed analysis does help more though. It’s says 500+ Watts to @ 4 ohm. But what is the THD at 500?. How does it perform at 2 ohm. Slew...

Looking for an amp....Opinions about Odyssey or Bel Canto audio anyone?

Speaker match
@john421 $500 or less for highly efficient full range speakers new or used is what you are looking for?.

If I don't mid asking how far do you sit from speakers?. And what are the dimensions of your room. 
Hypex N core module
@lalitk  Thank you, I appreciate your insight. M1000 uses ICE so must be similar to Legacy Powerbloc4. Again I am just guessing.

@lalitk  does this mean ATI AT543NC will be a better performer then Legacy Powerbloc4 or similar implementation?. ATI has more power for sure.
