I am looking for a good sounding power amp for an active system.
To drive a pair of 5" drivers per channel, 8ohm Celestion TF0510MR closed back, wired in parallel.
The drivers have no crossovers hi or lo pass, and operate with acoustic frequency limits / horn loaded through taps in a band pass, between around 325Hz to 954Hz.
What's below that and above that is killed off with EQ.
I've been using a little 5W EL84 SET amp and recently trying a Topping TP-60 (I know😀), just to try.
I wonder if the damping factor of the SET is too low for the drivers. It operates but...
The TP-60 seems to work okay but I want to up the game if possible, within a reasonable budget.
All help gratefully received.
