I'll be curious to hear the outcome of the new amp, which is rated at 135 watts into 8 ohms and 200 watts into 4 ohms.
Bass leaves after amp warms up?
I don't understand-after my Musical Fidelity M6i amp warms up for about an hour I notice the deep bass & kick drum aren't the same.
They sound less musical with loss of weight/depth.The notes are there but the moving of air have left.Sound is has much less impact and boreing.
I had the same problem with Bryston amp so there is no defect with amps nor with the rest of my equipment/
PSB Synchrony one speakers,AQ cables,Bryston CD Player.
My question has anyone heard similar & is there a plausable reason?

As I have followed this post and looked around on the net, I just found this review on the AudioPrism III conditioner. I believe Fishing uses the II, which is very similar. What is interesting is the comment made in the 3rd paragraph from the end. They also make reference to a similar conditioner. Hopefully someone with more technical knowledge can explain why they say this. http://www.soundstage.com/revequip/db02.htm . |
Fishing, here is an article about the other conditioner that was referenced in the AudioPrism review. Its long, but read carefully @ Listening Up
the Game is Afoot. The last 3 sentences of the 1st paragraph seem to somewhat describe your problem. The next paragraph talks about positioning the conditioner, and further down shows a picture of a fairly extensive setup. http://www.soundstage.com/noisy15.htm I may be grasping at straws, but just trying to help. The best way to determine if the AudioPrism is causing a problem is to take it out completely. Just use something like a heavy duty outlet strip to get enough plugs for everything, and you probably will notice some degradation of sound, but play the system to see if the problem occurs. If it does, well just keep looking for other ideas. At least, this is something simple to do, and I don't think it is something you have tried. |
Today I will set up just amp & turntable sans digital. Sounds like a great experiment. I would also use the power cord that came with the amp instead of the Kimber PK10 you have been using, and everything plugged to the wall outlet. Keeping the system as simple as possible will help to resolve the problem. |
Fishing, definitely appears to be a very high quality integrated and I do hope this new amp works well for you, however someone has misinformed you about the power. The ratings I quoted was from the company's website. http://www.accusticarts.com/pdf/produktblatt/power-I-mk3.pdf Agree with Mapman, what's on paper never tells the whole story. |
