I find audiotroy rude but maybe I am reading it wrong
Integrated Amps
I'm debating whether to upgrade my Marantz integrated with a better performing and higher powered integrated or simply add a separate amp and use the Marantz as a pre-amp. I've looked at stepping up to the Marantz model 30 or 40n, PS Audio Stellar Strata, Music Fidelity M5si/M6si. But then the Heaven 11 Billie caught my eye.
Has anyone had any experience with the Heaven 11 Billie integrated amp? It's a hybrid class D amp w/ a tubed pre-amp. The reviews I've watched seem to give the unit high marks for sound quality, presentation, sound stage, and because of the tubed pre-amp, an analog warmth to the otherwise "cold" sound of a class D amp.

@audiotroy really?
@nonoise AR is a bully. I once commented on his inaccurate numbers and he attacked me like I molested him. Instead of looking at and correcting his dumb, wildly inaccurate numbers. Honestly, he lacks substance, intelligence and doesn't even research his subjects like others but I understand he is "consumable" which is why he is watched by 10s of 1000s. |
@michaelalan I am interested to learn about your Billie, and I don't see it at TMR yet. I will message you.... |
@bipod72 of course you do! I am just here for the hifi roadkill |
@bgross the new price is way out of my budget. But I would definitely go to Andover to listen to them, maybe they will have a used one. |
