Bye-Bye Simaudio Moon Amp


THE SITUATION: I have a Simaudio Moon 5-Channel TITAN amplifier that I wanted to pair with my Simaudio Moon Evolution CP-8 preamp multichannel processor.

THE DILEMMA: The amp is a giant and does not come close to fitting in my media cabinet.

THE SPEAKERS: I am powering Focal Chorus 836W front left and front right with matching 800VW center channel along with two Mark Logan in-wall ceiling speakers for rear surround.

THE SOLUTION??? I need to replace the Simaudio Titan with a "normal" sized amp. My budget is ~$3000-4000. Would love to get some recommendations from my fellow Audiogon'ers. I would even be open to ditching the Simaudio CP-8 multichannel processor and getting new separates or even an integrated.

Thank you forum peeps!

You don't need to store powerful amp inside the cabinette regardless of its size especially multi-ch-amp. It needs more room for ventillation unless you're going for class T or D amp that needs neither fan or large open space. You can shop among Wyred4Sound, Sunfire TGA...
I recommend Wyred for sound also. The amps are compact, make no heat, and sound great. They have models in your price range.
Personally, I would stay away from class D amps. I haven't heard one yet that I liked enough to purchase. I would look into an Anthem multi-channel amp. They have gotten rave reviews and are an excellent buy for the money..
