You want the TRUTH from those Wilson Alexia's, maybe you can't handle the TRUTH



56 bi-polar outputs, current till the cows come home, massive supply, multiple small power supply caps for fast release, 2000w into 2ohms that’s 2hp!!!!!

Thanks Erik_squires about amps. My bad.

I have had trouble with one brand of mono tube amps that drew over 12 amps each during robust payback. In a modern home that did have 20 amp outlets, etc. they sounded wonderful. I reckon the SAEs and the like draw similar.

The problem was in an 1818 house that had inadequate amperage and thoughtless wiring. The tube amps sucked. When the service was upgraded and wiring correctly replaced and routed, the problem went away. The computers were happier, too.

I’m currently using my SAE 3100 amp for my front L&R as my multichannel amp has been going bonkers on me (it’s in time out). Bought it in 1981 used. Still cranks out the sound through my ATC SCM 19 v2’s which are not efficient by any measure.

It's nice to see SAE resurrected!
