| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker @geek, have you considered emailing Benchmark and asking them? I have done that with other companies. I admit that chart isn't easy to read maybe they can send you a better one. | |
| New power cord needed for speaker with powered subwoofer? @geek , I guess the OP could ask the dealer or manufacturer if the cable supplied with the speakers are the proper gauge and rated for use with those speakers. Why in the world does anyone think this company which has been building speakers with ... | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker You would need 2 AHB2 amps, one for each speaker. They can be run in bridged mono to 4 ohm speakers. There is an application note page on Benchmarks site where they did this with PCM IB2S monitors. | |
| New power cord needed for speaker with powered subwoofer? Use the cord that came with the speakers unless they gave you one from a 1970 hoover vacuum cleaner. I agree why in the world does anyone think that the manufacturers of these expensive componets think they turn into skinflints when it comes to t... | |

| Flaws in this chain? Ok , thanks for the information. | |
| Integrated w/phono but no DAC I got a Micromega M100 with MARS. To be honest I never tried the Anthem in my new place after having a large dedicated listening room I just figured I would go the room correction route and sold the Anthem before I moved. I know it's hard to go b... | |
| Integrated w/phono but no DAC I had the anthem 225 first with B&W 804 then Paradigm Prestige 85f neither of which made it break a sweat. I found it to be neutral amp , I guess it did what you want an integrated to do forget it was there. Sounds good at low levels and as ... | |
| Flaws in this chain? Cables no, sources yes but nothing drastic depends on the source, whether it's a newer CDP or an older one and what DAC is used or a file off my NAS or transport to a stand alone DAC . Not sure where you are going with this, like I have said usin... |
