The Hornshoppe Forum

I was thinking about a Bryston 4BST!

The 4BST is rated for 250 WPC, but your Horns are only going to be using a fraction of that potential. Think of it like this: Your wall AC outlet is (generally) on a 15 amp breaker, but you can plug a 7 watt nightlight into it without harm. The light draws no more power than it requires to function.

I've NEVER had an issue with an amp having too much power for any speaker I've ever used. I'd rather have too much than not enough, as amp clipping (especially a SS amp) concerns me far more than excess power. As Henry said, just watch your use of the volume control. At any "normal" level you usually listen at, you'll be fine.

Henry, I was thinking about a Bryston 4BST! I have one with a volume control made for me by Bryston to power a pair of Unity Audio Subwoofers.

I currently use a 35 watt tube amp with no regrets.  Ed has used a high power Pass amp years ago with no problems.  Just be careful with the volume control.  Also, when starting up, turn on the source(s) and preamp first, then turn on the amp in case something upstream passes DC when starting (I had a tube preamp that did that).  That should be a rare issue, but it happened to me and fried my drivers.

PS - Try to avoid Class D amps as some seem to have issues with the speaker crossover.  That's a shame since there are some decent sounding Class D amps these days.

More revealed after Jim Baker's throttle was removed.  "Twitter's secret 'blacklist': Second tranche of bombshell internal files reveal conservatives were marked 'do not amplify' and COVID lockdown skeptics 'shadow banned' in a move staff called 'visibility filtering' to stop accounts and topics trending"  They even manipulated the Covid narrative to certain direction for political reason.  It didn't affect me or those I know but it did brainwashed many people.  I still see people wearing mask outside walking alone.

sonic, you're spot on.  We all know what happened.  We have been "underserved" by the agencies put in place to serve us.  A nice way to say that we need to clean our house.

edit: This goes further than social media... it's scary when the gov't is an enemy.  I can't wait to pay my taxes.
