I am very pleased the quantity and quality of bass produced by the 1.1s. I have no doubt though that the 2.1s, with both more and larger drivers, take it to the next level.

They worked really well from the 4 ohm tap. The banana plugs were too long to fit in the 2 ohm taps so I never got to try. I now have new speakers that are perfect for the 4 ohm tap, Piega Classic 80.2. Very impressive full range speakers with coax ribbon mids/highs. The Kappas are now in room no 2. A lot of fun there too |

I envy your speakers and really trust you enjoy them a lot! I measured the bass respons on the 2.1 and in the room we were they came alive at 18 hz. The slam from all those woofers can really fill a big room. I trust the 1.1 can really do a lot of the same. My choice went another direction this time. Long term 1.1 or 2.1 will be a goal. I just purchased some speakers that really have very interesting qualities. Piega Classic 80.2. Real 22 hz response, great headroom and a special mids/highs ribbon coax that sound so good. Wish I knew how to post pictures here Dag |

Charles,
thanks for all the feedback in your posts. I read them carefully all of them. I moved the Infinity Kappa speakers to my second room, and just bought a pair of Piega Classic 80.2 that in my mind can do pretty much everything a speaker should. Very capable in every way, interesting how they are made with the ribbon coax. They have similarities with vintage Infinity IRS speakers because of the ribbon midrange, not very common. Best regard Dag |

Copied from page 2 of the MC2600 manual. Read it carefully and you'll have a better understanding of what such an amp is capable of and furthermore what Mc engineers are capable of.
