However Marco described his amp as 60w, whereas I suspect that if fed a continuous duty signal at high level, such as I use to test my amps, then it would struggle to sustain 30w. This is only my estimation based on his description of the components.Quote:

This is reinforced by Marco's suggestion that to his ears, his amp sounds better than any other amp he has heard, particularly ss ones, and is exceptionally "musical".
Conclusion: His amp is almost certainly clipping and he likes the effect so much that he thinks its better than anything else he's heard.
For my purposes, therefore his ears are unsatisfactory, although I accept he is very attached to them. :)

What "bad news"? Ashley's bottling out of our meeting yet again? It was highly predictable!
Marco.
Marco,what is the quoted sensitivity of the Spendors?
90db, mate, and an easy 8ohms load. The Yaqin drives them to serious levels, believe me, and there is no (audible) clipping!
Marco.
Ok Marco I'll listen to them, just to please you. :)
I thought you were looking forward to going to AVI ? what happened ? :(
