Hi JBL daddy,
That amplifier just does what it has to do and that's amplifying the signal without adding anything to that signal.
It has a lot of power which can be of importance when using low sensitive loudspeakers like my Celestion SL6 loudspeakers (84db).
In my living-room i am using a Harman Kardon Citation 16a with a pair of JBL4312A Control Monitors and that amp is freewheeling with these sensitive loudspeakers.
Kind regards,
