Hello,

Thanks for the advice.

Ok where to start ?

I am looking this time for 2 channels power amps+ preamp, or integrated.

Idea is:

Every brand for me are ok as long it will not overheat with M80v3 at reasonable volume.

There are good review for almost every brand, and i have little to no preference.


I found as an exemple:

integrated:

Anthem I225f
has balanced xlr input and pre out.
No extras like dlna, optical input,
But i don't require a media player amp.

Axiom Ada-1000 +
and a preamp.

I know nothing about preamps just it's needed wink
and i have choice of features. No need to replace the amp if preamp die and vice-versa.

Third choice are monobloc amps + preamps.
But require more powering cables.

third : all in one like nova serie from peachtree.

In last choice, small sized amps:
like HK675, HK980.
But i will move to dedicated furniture instead of put audio material on my computer desktop.
So i can have freedom of choice about amps models again.


Ok so:
80w or even 60w per channel @ 8ohms is enough.
I just need more freedom sometime.

Distorsion happend on HK675 at half volume.
Off course i don't need to go that far often.

But you know about very good old cd not clipping recorded at -20 dbfs peaks.

This is the time i need power wink


Thanks you again.
