There are limitations to what they can drive. However, I found over time that generally I do not care for the speakers that are hard to drive and those who need to be pushed to sound good, no matter what the amp is, unfortunately most of today's speakers. Have no issues with the bass nor dynamics, but I use speakers that need not be pushed hard.We discussed 6Pack before, it is good for the MSRP but ultimately did not do it for me (not to mention heat). Those interested in details can search the forum. But I got new CJ for less that the 6packs at closeout :-)
Byston? Come on it is not even in the same league. IMHO, I am not sure it is even in the same sport. Saying Bryston sounds cold, etc. is like saying that your home furnace is bad in baking thanksgiving turkey. Close but no cigar :-)
On a serious note, sst2 was better than tubed McIntosh integrated driving Magnepans and for a change not harsh (not much of the endorsement?).
