Interesting to see mention of the Robertson 4010 - I thought everyone would have forgotten about them long ago. I still use one in my 4th system and it is indeed a sweet sounding amp (it replaced another very decent amp, a Bryston 2B, which was designed more as a commercial rack unit) but also sounds very nice in comparison to the competition.
Best sounding low power (under 80watts) Class AB amp?
What the world needs is a nice sounding lower power class AB amplifier under 35lbs. I'm tired of power sucking light-bulb dimming Class A designs and 80+ pound Class AB immovable boat anchors on dollies. Tubes and Class D need not apply.
An Audio Research 100.2, CJ MF-80/MF-2250 come to mind. What else is there?
What do you think? I'm I the only one?

@herman What speakers are you using with your 300B? I have Klipsch Forte 4 and having doubts that 300B would be loud enough. Thanks |
Have you measured how loud you normally listen? What makes you think you need 80 watts? What kind of music do you normally listen to and at what volume level? I humbly recommend you download an app something like Decibel X PRO so you can use the built in microphone on your phone to see what SPLs you are typically running. You might be surprised at how little power you're actually using... |
