I have a pair of the Supercharged SongSurrounds. In one setup they sound good driven by a Schiit Ragnarok 2 (A/B 60 wpc). I plugged them into the HT setup NAD T758 (D 110 wpc) as L/R fronts where they seemed to really come alive. In neither case was I driving them hard (call in average 60 ish dB at 1 meter) where I would suspect the Raggy was anywhere close to running out of steam. The HT room set up is arguably worse than the Schiit setup so I think acoustics has little to do with the difference.
Does it make sense that the Songs are just better matched to either or both the power and amplifier class differences?
I ask because I’m considering a few of options for a desktop amp that I want to be powerful enough to drive the Songs. Two are about 50 wpc. One is class D (PS Audio Sprout) the other A/B (Parasound ZampV.3). A third option is a Schiit Vidar (A/B 100 wpc). They also bracket the price point I’m looking at.
Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you.
