Any interest in offering a smaller amp?
« on: 16 Sep 2010, 08:27 pm »
My speakers are fairly efficient and only rated for 27 wpc continous/80 wpc peaks.  While I'm a big believer in the advantages of the amp having sufficient power to provide a commanding grip on the speaker, it seems to me that 200 wpc and beyond is overkill in such cases. 

Any thought about offering something a bit more affordable (and maybe physically smaller) with less output?

TIA

Physically smaller would be appealing for desktop based systems, I would be interested as well.

That would sell if reasonably priced and introduce DAC house sound to broader audience.
Good idea!

Not me.

Bring on the 1000w+/ch mono blocks!

And change the faceplate color to blue, black, silver or gold.

I certainly would be interested in a amp with the same upgrades as the Cherry Plus but with say 200 or 300 watts into 8 ohms.  I listen to alot of classical and I don't want to shred my speakers.

I wonder how hard it is to customize wattage.
