I don't get LRS and cheap Ayima AO7 amp
Interesting story, I have an real nice tube amp Harbeth analogue system setup which is great. I ordered a Magnepan LRS for the goof a while back. Got it like 5 months later didnt think twice as it was put aside. I needed a cheap amp and DAC for an inceiling kitchen system. Ayimya ao7 $90 and a topping E30II $150. I hooked them up to Maganepan and I was shocked at how good it sounded. How is this possible? I dont get it.... I have heard very expensive systems 70K+ . Are we being ripped off. I am not comparing the two so lets not go down that road....but what gives....

With the A-07 one uses more or less voltage in the form of the SMPS to get higher wattage. |
@holmz I'm sorry, I don't understand your post. You're talking about an engineering concept. What are the consequences? Should the A07 and Tripath amp sound very similar? Anyways, I thrifted a Continental Edison PA9109 for 40€ and couldn't be happier. I get a bigger, punchier sound. I'm no longer interested in these class D amps, because I'm satisfied. I wouldn't be against using an Aiyima A07 for a few days to make up my mind. But I can't justify another amplifier purchase. |
If you need more power, like maybe driving a 8 ohm load… then to get more power one uses a higher input voltage. Figure out what power you want/need, and order the power supply that fulfills that need/want.
I do not think it is the best amp in the world, and comparing it to a Bryson, Parasound, Pass, etc. seems a bit of a wank. But it is the best amp at $62 (USD) IMO. |
