I have a friend that may consider an used SA/3 for his Snell C speakers. Those should be 4 ohm speakers and a bit hard to drive. How much power can a SA/3 put into such speakers?
Is there any information somewhere on how the bias concept is and how they are rated in 4 ohm.
There are rated 50W class A in 8 ohm. It is printed on the front and they seems to have relative high current ratings. 16A continuous and 80A peak?
It is a bit more than ACA.....which I will bring for the next visit just to have some fun.....
Stasis are single ended amps?

It is chapter "Stasis general" I should look at?
Stasis 3 and Stasis SA/3 are two different amps....as far as I can see....
Will have a look..... but today still a good amp. It was expensive stuff back then....I could only afford a Nad....

The only Stasis concept description I could find was this one.
The follower stage is push-pull followers?
So not a single ended design. Then the output power in 4 ohm is probably about double than in 8 ohm.
SA/3 is the only Stasis stereo amp.....so a kind of entry level Stasis but still a good one is my conclusion so far.....

The SA/3 is not the only stereo Stasis amp, but it's a gem, and it will drive anything with ease!
Go fetch!

Now I have some information. I will inform the "Snell C owner"...
The price is like $2200.....so we will see....
Good I have sensitive easy to drive speakers so I can go with VFET amp....
