(Terry London), I was wondering if you could provide some feedback. I have read many of your well written reviews of amplifiers from Coda, SPL, LTA, etc. I know that you initially liked the Coda 8 and then upgraded to the 16. But recently you seemed to have sold them and moved on to Coda 5.5. Your component list also mentions SPL 1200. I am intrigued by this amplifier, especially because it is “ Made in Germany”. I have high regards for German components and my recent acquisition of the T+A DAC 200 only cements my belief.
A you please throw some light by comparing the Codas with the SPL. Also, do the fans inside the SPL turn ON once a while and do they bother you. I had read a long time ago, how the Coda brand had a falling with a US rag and were not reviewed much here in the States. But I understand that they have a large following in the Europe. Not sure how true this is anymore, since I am seeing a lot of press for. Idea these days.
I am looking to change my amplifiers from a Parasound A21 for my ProAc D48R loudspeakers.
