Cajun Klipsch Fan Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Will the Sonos 2 channel amp power a pair of Heresy’s well enough? Does anyone have experience with this or heard any play with this setup. thanks for any advice. Cajun Klispch fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Welcome to the forum. I just watched a video on the amp. It should work and have plenty of umph. These small amps can work well for space constraints and WAF. Do you have a Sonos system. There are other small amps that can power your speakers.

Cajun Klipsch Fan Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 I don’t currently have a Sonos pre amp. But I use the Sonos move and Sonos one at our office so I am familiar with there products. Do you recommend another pre amp for the Heresy. Mine are 1979. I am trying keep using them with the modern networking- Bluetooth - Voice commands- etc. I just don’t want to sacrifice its performance to much with a smaller amp. I have a 1995 HK 60 watt 2 channel and the herersy runs great. I wast just doubtful that those newer compact amp would match up well with the vintage power??

Cajun Klipsch Fan Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 Are you saying stick with the Sonos amp with Sonos speakers? Or you saying that Sonos amp won’t work well for the Heresy? If not a Sonos Amp then what other 2 channel amp should I use that has similar network, Bluetooth, Alexa, type features. thanks for any help:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will work better than Sonos products and handles most streaming platforms, has a good DAC for additional digital sources and even has a Phono pre, iirc. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
