Amp for Orphean Ultra bass bins (BD-Design)

Hi Paul,

I'm soon to take delivery a pair of REF 2010 enclosures and am considering what amp to use with them.

Current contenders are either an Audiosector Patek v2 gainclone or a Wyred 4 Sound ST 250.

However, I'm also intrigued by the idea of using a FirstWatt F4 as a booster amp fed with the speker level output of my Yamamoto A-08s via the active crossover with 20hz EQ that Bert is currently developing for the REF 2010.

Given you aready have an F3, the F4 on the bass may just be an extra special combo. Maybe should e-mail Nelson Pass about this? If you do, please share any response here.

PS - I see Nelso has developed his own active crossover with EQ. Could be interesting too.

Cheers,
Russell
