In Reply to: Berning ZH270 for Stack Quad 57? posted by SuperB on May 19, 2006 at 18:46:09:
I think the Atma-Sphere S-30 at 30 WPC is a better choice.

Hes using the quads stacked so might be fine with the berning but that atmasphere is a better choice because of no transformer.You can go higher power when stacking them but you still want to be cautious.
Do you think the clamp board build inside the Quad 57s avoid any damage from high power?

I have martin logans and I have one pair of acoustats still and those werent sensative like the quads were but I think the clamp in the quads bleeds down the panel bias when it senses too much power hopefully.Usually distortion is what takes out drivers in most speakers but in the electrostats that doesnt hold true because distoriton is a DC clip on the sine wave and of course stats being a capacitor blocks DC..Over power tho on the 57s toast them.
