Amplifier power requirements

With around 85 decibel sensitivity and impedance dipping a bit above 3 ohms, the LS50 Meta is a moderately demanding load that benefits from robust amplification with good current reserves to fully unlock its dynamics, control, and refinement, yet reviewers report that a range of solid integrated amps and dedicated power amps, from compact streamers to emotiva monoblocks, can drive it successfully when partnered thoughtfully.
