So I got the Apollon amp and I am shocked that things sound different. At low volume, sounds clean. Higher volumes, more punch. It’s really awesome. Going to run my completely unscientific, purely based on my ears, comparison using the Eversolo dmp a8 vs Wiim Ultra.

Thanks! Appreciate the help. Was planning to switch the Eversolo out for a minidsp shd. I kind of want room correction integrated in the easiest and “best” way possible. Is that dumb and should I stick with Eversolo? I’m actually changing up one thing: swapping the Eversolo for a minidsp shd. I...

Thanks, @MaxwellsEq. So then what is the upside of going with a 400W amp like the Apollon over something that hits 180W or 185W and peaks there?

This is great. Helpful analogy. Thanks.

I don't drink, but I've got young kids! I like on the Eversolo (and I imagine most newer products) I can really easily set the volume at a particular limit.

Thanks, this is a helpful link.

Thanks for all the incredibly helpful responses. @staticV3 this is exactly where I get confused. The KEF recommendation is up to 180W. The Apollon is 600 watts at both 4Ohm and 2Ohm, and 380 watts at 8Ohm. Folks here seem to say that is fine. There is a delta somewhere!

Hi all, Hoping I can lean on your expertise in getting a better understanding of power and driving my speakers. I really don't understand wattage, power, voltage, and the variables that drive a speaker. I have been looking for an amp to drive my current setup (KEF R3 Meta, Eversolo DMP-A8) and...
