I don’t care for what you say, you need amps that can almost double down for each halving of impedance, not ones that actually halve their wattage and go backwards!! with current sag limiting into hard loads.
Next you’ll be telling me that a 100w OTL tube amp will drive the Alexia better than the 25w ML2.
You stick with your $400 3000w Class-D’s, and go spruik your views on a PA sites instead where you’ll make a dent |
Georgehifi, Here is the difference between me and you. Your posts are all conjecture and hand-waving. Conjecture and hand waving is ..... well just that. Again, let's look at facts: - 1500 watts into 2 ohms is 27 amps
- 100 watts into 2 ohms is 7 amps
- Maximum dissipation in a LINEAR amplifier with a real speaker load DOES NOT happen at the spot on the speaker impedance curve where the current delivery is highest.
- Class-D is not impacted by phase w.r.t. power delivery in the same way a linear amplifier is, either in device dissipation or power supply loading.
- Other than knowing an amplifier can deliver 100 watts into 2 ohms, you have no data that shows the power supply is any more capable of supporting continuous additional power delivery and the dissipation peak of the speaker load
- You have not heard the Alexia with the Behringer, but you are making many claims that you don't have the requisite data to support.
- You are deflecting bringing up OTL amplifiers
- There are many reasons why power may not double with every 1/2ing of the impedance, and without knowing what that reason is, you can't made factual conclusions about an amplifier beyond that it will clip at a given wattage and load impedance (as stated in the specs). If the 2 ohm wattage is stated (and distortion components), and given that impedance doesn't drop below 2 ohms for almost all speakers, then beyond knowing where clipping will occur for 2 amplifiers, you really don't know much else. Any other conclusion you arrive at is purely assumption.

I have a feeling you are were someone else in a passed life?

@audiozenology.....thanks for the feedback. I don't comment on here much.....too much back and forth banter. So I just read and form my own opinion. I've become a lot more 'tech savvy' than I used to be. There's a guy on CL selling this Proton 'beast'. What's your impression of the review? He wants $750 for it. I know they are rare. Not trying to hijack this thread....haha Judging from your answer, you like the Proton specs I'm guessing.
