I have turned an aesthetic corner having realized that bo1972's incomprehensible comments are actually True Art, and after criticizing him for this stuff, I now relish each post as they contain gems like this: "At the end you need all the different aspects/properties of sound what can be revealed when it is complete." Wonderful stuff.
Too Much Power?
I have a question that relates to the maximum power output of new Bel Canto Ref 600M monoblocks, which I am considering to replace the Audio Research 150.2 SS amp I am currently using in my main system. (Yes I am another of the "lunatic fringe" who enjoys the results of good quality Class D.)
The Ref 600Ms are based on a Hypex Ncore module, and are stated to produce a maximum power output each of 300W into 8 ohms. My question is whether this can prove to be a problem in powering my Focal Alto Utopia Be speakers, which are stated to have a "maximum" power handling capacity of 250W each (their nominal impedance being 8 ohms).
I listen to mostly classical instrumental and vocal music and other acoustic instrumental music, and do not listen at particularly loud levels: the ARC 150.2 is rated at 150W per channel into 8 ohms and it has never in 10 years appeared to go even close to its limits; I rarely if ever turn up the volume control on my ARC LS-25 past the 11:00 o'clock position.
Should I be concerned about the Bel Cantos damaging the Utopias, given the speakers' 250W per channel maximum capacity and the 300W per channel output potential of these amps? The Be tweeter and other components of these speakers can be very expensive to have to repair, not to mention the inconvenience and aggravation which I really do not need.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or advice on this.

Thanks wolf_garcia Soon you will hear the sound where I was talking about many years ago. Because we reached a level what will help many people to a much higher level in quality what is possible at this moment. Audio needs to be created how music sounds in real. And then you need all the different aspects of how sound is being created. But most systems show that they are incomplete. Each incomplete system always will have a lower level in realism and emotion. The problem is that the way audio is being selected by trial and error always will be like a big gamble. When you have no idea what all the different properties of each part of your system are you will never understand why the stage and sound is what you hear. I learned to extract the full DNA of each single part. I was that focussed to understand why the stage and sound is what I hear. Tru-Fi has nothing to do with personal tatste, it is based on all parameters which you can hear in sound. That made it possible to create a higher level in realism and emotion. When I said; I have done thousands of tests, it is exactly as what I wrote. And I still do a lot of testing. It is the way how I work with music and audio. It is a natural way for me of creating sound as natural as possible. At the end I do it so more people will enjoy music as my clients and I do. You want others to feel the same level of exitement and emotion. The good thing is that even for prices many people can afford it can be created. In the last 2 years I had the freedom and options to do a lot of research. And now it is time to share it so many people will have a stunning sound for normal prices. |

bo1972 I am very sarcastic to all the F. losers in the world of audio. And yess there are many and this is a fact no one can change.Wow, Bo, why so angry? And, given your anger and disdain for those of us here, why do you bother to participate? |
