What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load


Just asking.

I see specs into 4 ohms but nothing into difficult speaker loads (like Thiel CS5's).

Thanks for listening,

Anyone know why Thiel designed such hard to drive speakers when there are so few if any amps around capable of  driving them to the max?


A few minutes ago (14:00ish hrs GMT), I spoke with Colin at Nord Acoustics primarily with my own system in mind.

However, I remembered this thread and mentioned it to him. Colin is positive that even Nord's entry level "MP" amps will, in almost all cases, be able to drive speakers at 2ohms.  I'd say to the OP, contact Nord directly and run your thoughts by them.  I'm pretty sure the last thing Colin will want to do is sell an amp that turns out to be useless!

It's disappointing that this thread descended into an echo of 99% of cable threads....

PS:  For the avoidance of doubt, I have zero vested interest in any audio equipment manufacturer or supplier.

Not just Thiel, there's many others that strive for perfection and they're usually the most expensive.
 
Xovers/drivers ect, are complicated to get everything to operate in the most linear function and best specifications without having many compromises, that most efficient speakers tend to over look for the sake of efficiency.
That's why you need great amps usually with great speakers otherwise you don't get what's the speakers capable of giving you, if not you compromise the speakers performance.

Now your twisting things by saying "useless".
Of course it will "work" and he will say so, but will it get the very best out of the speakers?, DEFINITELY NOT! especially in the bass where they are a pig of a load.
