Hello,
I have just got a pair of Linn Ninka's speakers, but have trouble deciding whether to use two Linn LK85 mono blocks or a single PS Audio Stellar 300?
PS Audio Stellar 300 is minimum 300W into 4ohm and Linn LK85 are 85W into 4ohm. Ninka's require 60W minimum into 4ohm.
Is it better to have more watts available (300) or two smaller mono blocks?
I would greatly appreciate your thoughts on this, since I have never tried mono blocks.

Best regards
Vilius

Actually you should go for bi-amp and not bi-wire. Many years ago I sold a Majik 4100 with aktiv card to a customer who had Ninkas and I still remember how good was that system (Majik CD player and Majik preamp too). That same power amp now is in my hands (he upgraded to powered Akubarik) but no space for a pair of Ninkas.
