In Reply to: This is not an amplifier you'd want to use with the 4 ohm 12" AR based speaker system posted by Soundmind on November 4, 2006 at 08:39:25:

My point was to counter Morricab's assertion. A damping factor of 10 will likely result in audible variations in the FR with many speakers.

Actually, the list price at the time of the review was $7000 USD! I could think of a lot of amps that are cheaper that would do better. But I think it would drive most speakers, though it's not a very good value for the performance.

If I were in the market for a powerful amplifier, the Crown would be a good bet.
