Another data-point on the 901s and power: As previously written, the 1.25s and 901s ae both connected to the same AQ niagra 5000, which is connected through a hubble outlet to a dedicated 20 amp circuit supplied by an equitech balnced power system.
With the D1100 upgrade I am able to sit in the room and enjoy really loud dynamic music (just not for too long or too often out of respect for my hearing). I engaged the 901s protection system (the 1.25 still had headroom) and I'm not sure if it was tube section or SS section or both, as both needles were bouncing off the edge of the meter, without ever overloading the Niagra or the circuit.
