does anyone know the difference between these amps?
I'm building a pair of Linkwitz Orion, I need this power range and
multiple channels, at least 8 total. I can get 2 of either of these,
and use the extra channels for subs later or something;
or I could get a RKB-650 and a RKB-250, that would work too since the
amps have the same voltage gain. That would be about the same price as
2 RMB-1066. Two RKB-650 would be about $350 more, but I'd get 4 more
channels for that $350. That's not a bad deal if it is a better amp than
the 1066.
I have a RKB-650 at home right now, at first glance it sounds pretty dang
good. I had a RMB-1075 for a month, I notice a difference and I think I like
the RKB-650 better, but it's only been here for half a day so far so I can't
be too sure yet.
The Orion is a fully active system, so each amp sees only one driver load
with no crossover. Siegfied Linkwitz said the power supply handling transients
would be his only concern with these amps. I don't think he believes it's
a problem, I think he just doesn't know for sure.
