Separate from the overall volume, this controls the balance of the low and high-frequency sounds, providing full tonal range at any volume level, compensating for the natural loss in the human ear of high and low frequencies at soft levels.

A smart buy for your stereo speakers

Once you jump to the A-S801 you get some high end DAC features. The A-S801 has a premium ESS Sabre 32-bit DAC (ES90110K2M) with USB input. The A-S801’s USB DAC will handle native DSD (2.8 MHz / 5.6 MHz) and PCM (384 kHz / 32-bit). We’re planning on reviewing the A-S801 later this year and suspect it will bust the 100 watt power rating on our bench. The reason I decided to even try the 501 in the first place was due to erring on the side of caution because of 1) the advice I recieved from Elac customer service 2) the advice I got from the telesales person at the retailer I was purchasing from (maybe I was naive to heed it) and 3) the fact that one or two comments here state or imply that there may be an advantage to the 501 and that the poll at the top of this thread is 50/50 between the 501 and 301 (though for completely different speakers albeit ones with the same sensitivity rating). Either way, the advice I got here is sound.

It’s the kind of amp we feel happy talking over, even at relatively high volumes, without having to interrupt ourselves to listen. We’re enjoying listening to our music; we simply aren’t forced to give it our full attention. According to the spec sheet the correct answer is the 501, but I'm wondering if it won't be overkill, since I most often listen at low volumes at near-field (desktop).Getting the 301 would be easier on my wallet, which means I can also get it sooner, but I wouldn't want to do it if that meant a significant loss at the hability to drive the speakers well.
