Antigen · 30th March 2011, 07:34 PM

Hi,

with 88dB sensitivity speaker (Vardus VR300) can I use succesfully a TA2024 or is better TA2020 or TA2021B ?

Thanks

Hello, Antigen

Yes you can ! I would recommend you to go for the TA2020, in my opinion the best sounding from your described choices and a bit more powerfull than TA 2024.

My speaker are VARDUS VR 300.

Do you think that 2020 can "move" their speaker?

Some people tell me that 2020/2024 has too low power to "move" my speaker.

True or not?

It will definitely work; but only you can decide if the resulting sound level will be satisfactory or not.

You can purchase a low power Tripath amp for less than 1/10 the cost of those speakers, so it wouldn't be a huge loss if you end up disappointed.

It's better 2020 or the 2024?

TA2020 has a supply voltage MAX of 14.6V vs. 13.2V of the TA2024. The TA2020 also has better a better thermal interface for the heatsink.

One could argue that the TA2024 allows for a tighter PCB layout though; if you think that matters at all.
