RE: +1 on stronger amp

The Crown has a power rating of 2kw@4 ohms, It measures 2.5kw at clipping.

The Bryston was rated 800 W/ch bridged into 8 or >4 ohms, below 4 ohms power output is limited to below 600W there is no official power rating bridged into 4 ohms.
The Classe DR-9 was rated at 8/4/2 ohms 400/800/1150 watts

The bass panes are 4 ohms of course.

i am aware of the speaker level XO effect on damping.and after trying the DR 9 in bridged mode on one panel and realizing I was going to clip it fairly routinely and the slap convinced me to go for the higher power Crown amp. So my plan for biamping with 2 bridged DR-9 and one stereo were gutted and I bought the Crown.
