Cool Amps Needed for Eggleston Savoy's

EricP - I had Eaglestone Rosas some years back, they were driven at its best thru a Gryphon Anthileon (Class A = hot), I ied it with A - A/B amps like Rowland 2 and 8 before and sound was not just as good as the Gryphon. Be aware...

Eric, I'm sure the Savoys love amps with muscle, as the Andras do. If you place high priority on cool operation, the Rowlands might be one of your few choices. I think the 301 monoblocks are $15K each.

Another option might be to provide more ventilation air to your room.

A very high powered amp with little heat.

Digital amplifiers or class d amps have high power and run alot cooler than class a amps.

I may be wrong, but the Rowlands and some other digital amps are running the B&O Ice modules. They have good power and should do the job fine. It just seems like a heck of a lot of money for a digital amplifier.

I am in the process of breaking in a pair of Classe CA-M400 monoblocks. So far they are running a little warm to the touch. They have an effortless quality about them - I get the sense they could drive anything without breaking a sweat.
