    Im looking for an amp to power my new kef reference 201/2s.

    At the moment ive got a roksan caspian m-series integrated, but it falls a little short of requirements, the kefs are not very efficient.

    I need something with more zzzzzzzzzzt :JPS:

    Any suggestions?

    well I have a Crown K1 in the classifieds.
    Thinking of keeping it though, it sounds great with bags of power and is as reliable as amps come.

    I think Cooky has a good new studio amp. These things are perfect for throwing huge power and damping factors at power hungry drive units.

    Hi French

    No problem, I wasn't suggesting you buy mine - as above.

    You may find some audiophile designs with lots of power for a much higher price.

    Try Bel Canto, or another digital amplifier for lots of watts.
