Are you referring to the B&K 200? If so, it is unlikely that amplifier runs class A to 50 watts/channel. Click here for spec page from manual. Quiescent current is too low. Please define "normal" listening levels. Do you have a SPL meter or phone app to provide a db range? |
At 1 watt, one meter, would it not be playing at 88db with two speakers in the room?, posted on December 1, 2020 at 08:22:50 | |
This being independent of room gain, of course. |

I believe the 30watt Pass stereo class A 30.8 also weighs in at 90+lbs. |

That kind of puts in perspective. I don't listen anywhere near that level. |
My amp's wattage is all new - nt, posted on December 3, 2020 at 10:35:04 | |
