As the title suggests, I am looking for a power amplifier but am open to other options should they arise.
I am currently browsing Behringer a800 = 279$
and Crown XLS models 1002 = 385$
I like the DSP feature on the crown XLS to set frequency cut-offs.
Alternatively, I have thought maybe it's better to save a bit and go with something via Audiophonics/Buckeye/Vtv route for a high-power Ncore amp. I looked at Emotiva, but their shipping rates are outrageous for non-US customers. Even with their factory refurbished promo's
I currently have a Yamaha RX v4a for my tv set up. The unit has no pre-outs.
Looking for something for dedicated music listening using Pi>topping e30 as pre/DAC > power amp >speakers. One thing to mention is that I would like to include a subwoofer into this integration, and the chain mentioned above doesn't seem to support that. Would I need to purchase something like mini DSP flex or a unit similar to emotiva's basx pt1? I have been trying to source a used AVR with front/LCR pre-outs and use that, but AVR'S with that function are selling for 4-500 used.
Thank you so much for your attention and participation.
