Re: QSC Amps - Audiophile Quality??

My 2 cents:

Having chatted with Bob Lee on a couple of occations and owning about 24 QSC amps over the years when I had my sound company I feel somewhat qualified to give an answer.

My current home hi-fi amp is a Forte' 1a pure class A amp. I have listened to a QSC, Yorkville (AudioPro), BGW, and Crown in addition to the Forte', a Belles, and a Threshold on my system. My impressions - for pure slam a professional amp such as a QSC is great. For the subtile nuances such as 3D imaging, attack, presence, and so on the audiophile amps that I have heard win. So it depends on what you're looking for. If you need big power and don't have a lot of dollars lokk at the QSCs, as they were the best sounding pro units in the un-offical tests we did, with the AudioPro's a close 2nd, and the Crown 3rd.

YMMV..
