D400, I will see this configuration only in pictures I'am afraid. ;-)
Thanks for the comments, though.
In my opinion 120W/6 Ohm per channel should be enough for my type of listening. I just don't want to go too close to the maximum power of the amplifier.
Maybe it would be safe enough to set it to 100W in the configurator and live with what it provides. From what I've read Focals are easy to drive, but not sure if SAM changes anything in this aspect.
Focals are rather efficient but I don't know if they are easy to drive as they can drop down to 3.5 ohms depending on content. I've seen comments of easy and also not easy to drive.
Why not a used D200, same price as a new D120?
