Hello,
I have a pair of Martin Logan Aerius, whose impedance goes down to 2 ohms. Do you think that an Aleph-X is a good choice for that speakers? Are there other Pass amplifiers that drive ML better?
Best regards.

The current crop of XA amplifiers are not appropriate for such
low impedances. From the PL products, I would recommend
X150.5 to X600.5

Thank you Nelson.
I'd like to build by myself a Pass-designed amp capable of driving very low impedance (< 2 ohm) speakers. Any suggestion for such a diy project?
Best regards.

The A75 is most appropriate, I think.
