Hello Nico
I have accuphase A60 for about 3 months.I'm very happy with it. This is my personal review about my amps.
I choose a60 because it's best for treble and mid sounds (compare to mark levinson, krell, mcintosh; my personal experienced).
Some weak point is bass control. A60 provides good quality of bass but slightly slow response, DF =100 (problem may occur because most of my CDs are rock and heavy metal).
This amps running hot but less than krell, pure class A operation.
Nico, Don't worry about max power, as follow;
1. Most of musics need few watts at listening level. Most of my CD used about 1-4 watts (from digital display).
2. Current is also important for drive speakers. And A60 is high current and stable power load for any ohms loads, 8,4,2 and 1 ohm.
3. Check for your speaker drivers, especially bass driver. If it's not too big as 15", no problem with A60. Bass may not be tight is bass driver is large.
4. Check for your room size. A60 is good for small and mid size listening room.
5. About power, A60 is bridgable amps. Two amps in bridgable mode may solve some problem about max power load.
Now i'm connected A60m amps with my focal electra1027Be. Sound smooth, neutral, relax, good quality bass and warm sound. It's excellent for my CDs from acoustic songs, stones, deep purple,...black eyes peas,... METALLICA and PANTERA!!!
***Treble and mid are heaven***
