Parasound HCA-600 power amp.Power output: 60 watts per channel into 8Ω (stereo), 150W into 8Ω (mono) 18 amps per channel Frequency response: 5Hz to 100kHz Total harmonic distortion: 0.06% Damping factor: 800 Input sensitivity: 0.8V Signal to noise ratio: 105dB Dimensions: 19 x 1-3/4 x 13 inches Weight: 14lbs I used one of these to run my B&W CDM1 SE speakers, my Hales Transcendent 2 spears and Dunlay's and it did just fine, especially in the mono-block configuration. It presents a very nice soundstage that is wide and deep and is a very detailed amp. It is NOT going to run with the big boys but it more than HOLDS its own. It NEVER shies away from what is demanded of it, it just has limitations. I used it knowing it's limitations and built a system around it that made me very happy for a long time. Getting rid of it because I went to a 5 Channel amp where I can bi-amp and run sub at the same time. As you can see, it's in great shape and has not been driven hard.
