How many Watts are your main amps?

[rockfan52]

I'm using a Carver TFM-42 rated at 375 watts per channel RMS into 8 ohms.

 

[1984_C10]

Denon AVR-1602, 70 Watts RMS in 8 ohms on the main channels in stereo mode, more than enough for my needs.
But, er, its getting old, i may upgrade it in a few months.

Why replace something that works fine?? (Ya may end up with something worse)

Thanks.

You have to be an AK Subscriber (worth it by the way) and post your for sale listings in "Barter Town" in this Forum

How many Watts are your main amps?

My Mancave has a Yamaha CR-2020 (102 watts) driving Celestion 66 Mkll's or Wharfedale W-70E's, and the office system has a Sansui Eight Deluxe ( 60/80 watts) driving Wharfedale W-60E's.

 

[Ds2000]

Onkyo M-510, 500w per channel at 4 ohms.
Accuphase P-600 500w per channel at 4 ohms
Stax DMA-X2 1100w per amp at 4ohms.
All,of my speakers are 4 ohms.
Have a JVC M-L10 and a Bryston 2B-LP, but they're retired at the moment.

Acurus A200 - 300 watts @ 4 ohm > Bass Panels Magnapan MGIIIa
Quicksilver M60 tubes - 60 watts @ 4 ohms > Midrange Panels Magnapan MGIIIa
Quicksilver Mini Mono - 30 Watts @ 2 ohm > Ribbon Tweeter Magnapan MGIIIa
Total per channel = 640 watts RMS
Total rig = 1280 watts RMS
The speakers are modified in Hardwood Maple frames with braced stands, and will play any genre of music I throw at them.

My current beast Denon boasts 140 Watts Per Channel RMS at <.01% THD @ 8 Ohms and 170WPC at 4 Ohms.
My smaller Yamaha is rated at 70 WPC RMS, also at <.01% THD at 8 or 4 Ohms.

"Music Power" is rated much higher on both but that rating is pretty much meaningless.

 

[Rockon1]

Carver M 1.0t 200/channel @ 8 ohms.

 

[1984_C10]

Oh, yeah, never posted about the upgrade i did in August here, i have a Denon AVR-X2400H so here it goes:
95wpc @ 8ohms THD: 0.08%
It doesn't even get warm playing the big Monitor Bronze 6s

Main listening system.

Tri-amped Mac XRT 30 speakers:
(4) mono`d MC 275IV @ 150 watts ea. 600 watts total available for tweeters & midrange.

(2) Mac. MC 1201`s @1200 watts ea. for bass cabinets.
for total 2 channel 3000 watts available power.

Add Mac. XR 27 center channel speaker power amp, when used: (1) Mac. MC 60 @ well over 60 watts referenced to Mac`s THD+N/IMD spec.s, as measured by me, after electronic restoration.

And if also used, (2) Crown D 150`s loaded at 4 ohms each channel ~ 275 watts each available per amp for surround sides & rear speakers.
Max. total available RMS watts in living room: 3,610, and I love every watt, and so does my electric company !!!

OKB

Recently changed up the main system to a bi-amp setup...

tweeters & midrange - Manley Lab Stereo 75+75 (tube amp) = 75 wpc

woofers - M&K Volkswoofer 2B pair (solid-state mono plate amp) = 200 watts each

total = 275 watts per channel

My Mancave has a Yamaha CR-2020 (102 watts) driving Celestion 66 Mkll's or Wharfedale W-70E's, and the office system has a Sansui Eight Deluxe ( 60/80 watts) driving Wharfedale W-60E's.

Replaced the Sansui with a freebie Carver AVR 150 , 150 watts. Better then I expected, and the Sansui will be recapped soon.
