>If I understand well, your point of view is that pro amps sound quality is inferior to that of similarly priced hi-fi amps.<Not unless the pro amps are defective or poorly designed. A good pro amp should perform perfectly well for your application, with no sacrifice in sound quality.

Gotta agree with Bob here.
The only thing good pro amps have that might detract from purchase is a louder fan. Not all pro amps have noisy fans tho ...

Agreed. The Samson is an inexpensive amp. It should not be a shock that when played through a quality speaker it sounds inexpensive. A good speaker deserves a good amp. Whether it's an 'audiophile' amp or a 'pro' amp matters not, a good amp will always sound good.
Dear Sirs,I would like to thank you very much indeed for your extremely kind and valuable support.
Anyway what beats me is that the Samson does appear a nice and well designed power amp overall.
I mean, it sports:
1) a transformer of about 500VA ;
2) two 63V/10000 microF primary caps;
3) two pairs of high current Toshiba bjts for channel.
Nevertheless IMHO it fails at powering adequately the Dynaudio woofers.
Do you think that a caps upgrade could improve things?
I see sometimes caps upgradings offered as an option on other brands.
May be with two 20000 microF computer grade caps.Anyway thank you very much indeed again.
Kind regards,
beppe61
