In Reply to: "What amps on the market today use 600 ohms?" posted by Steve O on December 25, 2024 at 19:01:24:
because it really does matter. If using balanced, he made a poor choice given the 2:1 ratio. On the other hand, I agree with JA that 274:1 works fine!
The speaker to amplifier relationship is every bit as important. The Sanders hybrid electrostat has a Scream Machine roller coaster impedance curve and has special needs itself. Fortunately, my stats don't exhibit such a ride. Similarly, tube power amps work well driving them with their tame impedance curve. :)
