@oldaudiophile Thanks, appreciate it
New classe delta preamp and classe stereo amp?
Was wondering your thoughts on the newer Classe preamp and stereo amp combo vs something like the Accuphase E5000 integrated? Does anyone own this classe combo? It will be driving my older B&W 804S speakers and a rel t7x sub. I used to own the older classe cp500 and ca2200 amp. I have the E5000 right now and it sounds great, but just thinking of going back to seperates. Just a thought and some advice. I know the new classe is made in japan now. Thanks

@duketbrd88 - I should have mentioned, it was the Classé CA-2300. I thought the sound was otherwise outstanding, but in my quiet room, the fan noise was a dealbreaker. |
@duketbrd88 I have the Delta Pre and Stereo, and they are amazing with my Audiovector R3s. I can however hear the fan when nothing is playing or during silent passages. It still bothers me when I turn everything on, and I have been thinking about getting a rack where there is glass in the front. But once the music gets going, I certainly do not think about the fan. |
@fredrik222 Thanks, yeah don't think it is a big deal. |
@duketbrd88 Buy it from someone that offers free returns. Best Buy actually sells all of B&W and Classe products and offer 30 day free returns on all of them, even high ticket items. I am sure there are smaller dealers that do that too, but nothing beats testing in your own house.
