Pass Aleph vs. McCormack: What to Expect?

Thanks for filling me in Evansdad. While i knew that the Aleph 3 chassis was probably FAR more costly to produce than that of the Volksamp 30, i had to wonder how they could increase parts count and lower the price so drastically. I thought it might at least be worth mentioning as Peter S might not have been aware of the existence of such a unit. Sean

I believe you , the same has happened to me !!!!! The ltest I did as to isolate the amp from floor and ....you guessed it bass improved a lot and the better power cord I used improved performance all across the board

Peter,
You are missing the bass response because of the lack of power of the Alpha 3. Another "over-rated" power amp thanks to Stereophile. The McCormack DNA-1 will eat this amp for breakfast, my friend...........................

aleph lacks bass due to power, has incredible musicality and period outpaces the Mc.

power cord for the aleph is over rated. All alephs charge themselves fully and operates at full power at all times... anyone selling a bigger better faster power cord is simply making money or selling themselves on their own investment

the only way to make an aleph sound better is with better internals or interconnects/speaker cables and more efficient speakers.

maybe the spikes help and someother stuff that I haven't thought of

aleph is more costly due to casing and its inherient vibration proofness as compared to the volksamp

is there more better stuff in the volks??????

If Alas lacks bass due to lack of power, will I get more bass by bi-amping?
