Aleph 5 + Dunlavy 4

Hi !

Recently upgrade to such combo from KSA-250 + PSB Status Gold. The sound improves in every aspects significantly except bass. The low end energy is much lighter than previous combo! I did not have the chance to try ksa-250 SC-4 becuase KSA was sold before getting SC-4.
Any clues , similar experience, or suggestion ? Thanks !

Sorry to sort of go off the subject, but I really think the speaker cable needs to be changed. I think you need cables that has more emphasis in "speed" rather than "guts". Sorry if I sound like I don't know what I am talking about. Just think, "low gauge" and "low capacitence".

Hey CDMA,

Sorry, I am not at all familiar with Dunlavy cables. But, I've the Aleph 3 and used it with various speakers with various speaker cables. I think I had better luck regarding cable matching when I treated the Aleph as if it is a lower power tube amp than a muscle amp as it isn't one. I think twisted pair CAT 5 cables should serve you very well.
