That IS a lot, for just a 25 watt mono power amp. The bass should be very slammy, and grunty, in that case. If they used an LCLC ladder, like they used to do in their 8417 amps, it should be very quiet, too.Soft 'tubey bass'? no sirree! Sag!! NO, and WHY would you want it in for audio, anyway?!!!
My 'once was a LEAK St20' mid/bass duty amp stores 116 Joules, for 2 x 20 wpc. And the bass just does not stop. It does NOT sound like a weenie amp.
Half the capacitance times the square of the HT voltage feeding the caps, divided by a million, gives us the Joules, IIRC.
Do chokes have storage? eh?

- you're both describing the effects of a truly BIG PSU, with low ESR in the treble as well! - Timbo in Oz 13:29:50 03/22/07 (0)
