Opinion is only as valid as its verifiable supporting evidence.
Dunno about Amcron or what it is, but have had D-75's and liked them for my hi-fi. I may not be the most particular nor well travelled in that realm though.
Sold them only when a favorable deal on a bryston came along. The bryston was a little less power, which suits my application just fine/better in the end.
That said, have seen beat road-worn ones, and nice studio ones, so ymmv.
Amcron is part of Crown.
Your neighbors called. They like your music.
Re: Crowm Amcron D-75
If that amp is performing up to spec it should do a fine job on most any speaker. We used to use DC300A's on our PA rigs & I used one for a while in the home system & it produces plenty of clean power. They are very well regarded amps.
mah, take a look at the ART SLA-1. It's a really nice amp.
I have 2 Crown D75s, that powers a tri-amped Altec 806 driver/811 horn, and an EV T350 super tweeter, works great.
The older Crown DC series were really built for heavy-duty commercial applications, but many people used them in home applications. For example whole case of the DC75s functions as a heat sink.
BTW: I think the "Amcron" is used for export models, the name Crown is used in the US. Many USA-based companies use a different name outside of the US because that name maybe already in use by someone else overseas.
