Does the amp wattage make a big difference?


.......on planer or speakers like Infinity RS 1-B's?

I am considering the ARC vt 200MK1. I now have the VT 100 mkll. My listening levels are average and some tell me too low. Is the wattage in the amp truly a major factor in the sound of the speakers??

To take the guesswork out, may I suggest take you take a look at the Innersound Electrostatic Amp to get both watts and voltage to drive anything. He'll send it to you with a 30 day money back trial - Roger pays shipping both ways - how could you go wrong?

You could get another VT-100 and do a verticle bi-amping scheme for less money than selling your amp and getting the 200. Also you could check with Audio Research about converting the 100's to mono.
~~~~Rwwear,

Would you please elaborate on the vertical bi-amping scheme of the Rs1's. This sounds like it may be very interesting! Thanks.

Just the Facts

Use one amp on one speaker and send one channel to the midrange and tweeter and the other to the woofer. do the same for the other speaker. If your preamp has only one pair of outputs you will have to use Y cables. Make sure of course to use one amp for the left preamp out and the other for the right. Your speakers have to have bi-wiring capabilties for this to work.
Can this work with the special Infinity bass crossover??? The bass amp must be hooked to the cerossover and then fed back to the speaker........maybe it would work??

Fbi...can you add some comments?
