Purchased a non working Spec 4 recently, just got it back from the shop and trying out for the first time.
I am using a pair of Cerwin Vega at15's . So when I try to pour some power into them I get woofer bounce
and the thing cuts out like protect mode when Im at about 70-80 watts average on the meters.
The amp is rated at 150 for 8 ohm and 180 at 4 ohm. Am I wrong to think I should be able to push a little more before this happens? same speakers on my mcintosh mc2500 and can go 350 easy.
Am I just running out of amp with the spec 4? I am just surprised this happens at lower wattage.
