You going to melt anything on big format Jbl's. If you need subs get the 2245H's testeds at 2K power with no strain, 96 db with 1 watt figure that one out.

Parasound - Pass Labs - VTL - Krell Amp Selection

Rogue 120
Its 2000.00 to upgrade to the 150. Way too much. They just run the tubes harder. anyway Mine sounds good in the triode mode on vr-4. Ultralinear dosent do it for me here. Tungram 12ax7 are nice for it also.

Electrical question re dedicated line
Again deathgrip oulets. All amps on single phase preamps ect on other phase. If you need 220 you will need both phased obviouly. Run external ground rod for the ground prong 3rd wire. You will notice darker background in sound if equipment permits 
Rogue 120
Yes I was thinking about getting the unit upgraded to the newer 150.. I dont know the prices im on a very strict budjet thats why I had to go for the stock 120. Any more comments?
