Dual mono vs double bridged

[neddy999]

Hi everyone,

I have a nad 3150 integated amplifier which sounds great to my ears and has sufficient power for my Kef LS50's. It has dual power supplies so in effect a dual mono amplifier (?!).

My question is, apart from headroom, would I get an increase in sound quality if I invested in a nad 2150 power amplifier and brigded both amplifiers. Empirically it would be suck it and see I guess, what about theoretically?

Thanks in advance
Nenad

Bridging won't sound as good unless the speaker is truly 8 ohms or more, and the amp
can handle 4 ohm loads well, and you really, really do need the higher power.
