What is your budget for a new amp/s? Real heavy weight class A amps will provide punch but is expensive. The Class D amps which are gaining in popularity and use are considerately less money, but may not please you sonically. You have to figure out a way to audition these amps.
upgrading... which amp?
Hello Audiogon forum,
I currently have a home theatre setup with 3 x JBL 4410A for L C R and 2 x JBL 4408A for my LS RS, as well as a powered JBL LSR series sub. My old sony ES series amp has become very tired lately and I want more punch back. I remember hearing the 4410A's at one time hooked up to an old 2 channel power amp... a Marantz or something really heavy, and they sounded amazing, so I know more power will make these come to life again, any suggestions? Also am I looking for problems driving the 4410's and 4408's off the same amp?
thanks!
