BasX-A800

Hi all, so since this amp is bridgeable, would it be a good idea to bridge 4 pairs to power 4 Atmos speakers?

Yes, as long as they are 8 Ohm speakers.

Or would it be better to use two BasX A-150, that will make it 4 channels at 75 watts each, that should also work for Atmos channels, what do you think?

Either would work fine with 8 Ohm speakers. I'd lean towards the A800 myself for simplicity.

nice amp for zone speakers and great to have something coming back to market finally after the Sherbourn zone amps were discontinued

I'm thinking ahead so when I jump into Atmos, I will see what the specs are on the new class D amps...

If you only need 4 channels the A500 amp would give you 100 watts a channel for less money just a thought

That's a good idea, I can use 4 channels out of it, saving some juice not using the 5th channel.
