I’m building these speakers and want to put them on my work-desk. So they will be used for near-field listening (planning on correcting with a miniDSP Flex digital).
I already have a passive subwoofer which I can power with a Hypex FA252. (the FA252 is built into a custom enclosure: I bought it like this)
I have some amplifiers on my short-list but I’m not sure what the best option would be in my situation.
Questions I have:
Would the MPA-S250NC and Ncore be too much power for my application? This would mean I have very little range on any volume control and will most likely operate in the least favorable range of an analog pot or give up quite a bit on S/N from the amp. What effect would this have if I use a miniDSP Flex digital as a pre-amp?
I guess the MPA-S125NC and Topping PA5 are comparable in power delivery. Would they suffice? The speakers are far from highly efficient.
