Hi

I own a pair of marv marvelous ESL Soltanus audio Virtuoso speaker that are sensitive to damping factor.

Could someone tell me what is the damping factor of the BHK 300?

thanks

Look in the Resources–\>Manuals section of this site for the BHK manual; I bet the info is there.

Directly from the BHK manual:

Signature 250 Stereo - Damping Factor (8Ω, up to 1KHz) \>150

Signature 300 Mono - Damping Factor (8Ω, up to 1KHz) \>350
