Anyone know what's going on here?
Extremely high THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) 10% of those systems pretty much say what is going on here.

Lol...
I remember the first time I saw some crappy home computer speakers rated at 200 watts. Now I've been playing bass for pay with professional gear since Nixon was President, power to weight for bass reproduction I KNOW. They made me laugh. I laughed even harder when HTIB's started showing up. Ah... memeories.

The Stasis drives double New Advents in the garage. Originally, I used it with Acoustat electostats for nearly twenty years before it was replaced with VTL monoblocks. Having 400 watts at 4 ohms is a bit overkill, but at the power levels it typically runs - usually peaks at -20db (4 watts) - it is still running class A.
