[QUOTE="Skylar, post: 1100600, member: 17146"] I wholeheartedly agree with that. Specifically with the ACA, a preamp is very important if your speakers are not very sensitive. 88dB is pushing it. 94dB is much more forgiving and with certain types of music you?ll still want more drive. On the ACA vs FirstWatt topic? I know there is a lot of talk on diyAudio about bridged mono and also parallel ACA modes. If you already have an ACA, then building another one and running bridged is probably a good upgrade and cheaper than building a whole new FirstWatt amp. But I see it like this; You can put a Porsche engine in a Beetle and go faster, or you can just get a Porsche. [/QUOTE]
