I'm going to be driving a Hertz Audio 3-way component setup on the front stage, and am looking for a quality class-AB amp at or under 8" of width that will put out at least 250 watts to each side.
So far, I've narrowed it down to:
Audison LRx 2.9
Helix H400
Arc Audio KS 300.4
All of them range from 250wpc to 350wpc. The Arc KS offers 350watts @ 4 ohms when bridged, and is 8" in width, which is perfect. The THD is a bit higher than the Helix or Audison, but that wouldn't be audible anyway. The Helix looks intriguing also, although it is slightly lower powered than the Arc. The Audison seems intriguing because I've only heard good things about it and it's an Elettromedia product, like my speakers.
I guess my concern is, which will sound the best? I know, I know... that's a subjective question. But any feedback is welcome.
