Pass PLH a good choice for Quad ESL57?

kkillebrew · 30th January 2009, 03:55 PM

I'm looking to build a 10 - 15 watt SS power amp for my stacked Quads. I know the Zen can handle the reactive load the ESL's produce, and sound good with them. Any problems with the PLH?

Anyone built and used one?

If the Zen drives them, anything will.

Yes they take very little power, but it needs to be the best amplification possible. It's their reactive load I worry about that causes them to smoke some SS amps.

Thanks for the reply. I think I'm going to proceed.
