Re: Power rating 2 channel vs 5 channel

208.149.44.143

Generally 5 channel recievers do not have the "Balls" to produce full bandwidth all channels driven at the same time.

No worry, the DVD standard will incorporate enough staggering to compensate for power supply deficiencies.

Two channel will always have more headroom, unless you buy an amp like McIntosh...designed for it...not a typical receiver..

I do not tax amplifiers to that point, but if you could build 6 amps, and six preamps...( mono) with separate power supplys, It would outperform any receiver.


Have fun and test.
