I used to have 3.5s and drove them with a Classe CA-200 amplifier that is 200@8 and 400@4. I don’t think it was enough power. Keep your eye on the EQ box. Mine would periodically go out of whack and put the amp into protection mode. Each time it g... 
What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ?
Unsound dude its not nice to bad rap PASS So we should say everything is either great or not say anything at all?  Why should he not state his opinion?  Isn't that the whole point of the thread?  The way you think is one of the biggest things wr... 
Replacing Alpha Core Goertz MI-2 Veracity Speaker Cable
Hi jetter,You don't sound like a broken record at all.  I just installed the Goertz cables a couple of weeks ago.  I can install the zobels, but I don't see any reason to right now.  I never heard that an amp can be damaged slowly by using capacit...

Sorry, George, I was comparing similar amps to each other.  What you linked to is not even close and then you mentioned something that doesn't even exist yet.

heatsinks on the back@pops-  That might be the difference right there. My CA-200 is the later one with the heatsinks on the sides. My Magnepans are basically a resistive load, though. I’m not sure if that has something to do with keeping the amp ...

Check out this Nord amp.  It is the exact same price in USD as the Hypex NC400 kit, but it comes with the NC500 module, an input buffer, a bigger power supply, and it's already assembled.https://www.nordacoustics.co.uk/product-page/nord-one-nc500d...

The latest Icepower modules (IceEdge 1200AS1 and AS2) are not sold directly to end users but to OEMs only. They are way, way better sounding than any other Icepower module......and even better than Ncore NC400 and NC500 modules.Which exact ampl...

Do the NC400 Hypex kits come with two mono amps or do you have to buy two at € 650 for stereo? 
Replacing Alpha Core Goertz MI-2 Veracity Speaker Cable
That’s strange ketchup my ca200 goes into protection mode without the zobels. That is strange.  Which CA-200 do you have?  The one with the heat sinks on the back or the later one with the heat sinks on the sides?  Which Goertz speaker cables do... 
Replacing Alpha Core Goertz MI-2 Veracity Speaker Cable
Sorry, I don't have any recommendations for you, but I use MI-3 cables in my system and my Classe CA-200 does not have any problems without zobels.  I bought a pair from Geortz just in case, though, and they were only $20.  Is there any reason why...

Is anything better than the Accuphase T-100?
Thanks to everyone with the great recommendations!  I've heard about some unfamiliar tuners and appreciate the comparisons between others I have heard of.  I look forward to hearing some more from those who know what's going on! 
Interesting vintage find
Sounds like it's for sale to me.
