| Add Preamp to Berning ZH270 Hi Hzhu1920, have you tried the volume control at 1PM-2PM on the Berning and then use the pre-amp to adjust the volume, if the ZH-270 you have has the stepped attenuator, meaning that it clicks as you turn the volume, you will want to turn the kno... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso and Berning ZH270 combo noise. Ah, you may want to try the Berning without the Hydra, plugged directly into the Wall, the ZH-270 does have a conditioner built in, the Hydra maybe just too much, this will not help with the noise from the pre but for dynamics from the amp.Is the ... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso and Berning ZH270 combo noise. "17" could be a higher gain step than the other preceding ones.If you turn the volume control on the ZH-270 up to full, you may encounter the noise at a lower level setting, and if you reduce the volume control on the ZH-270 you may encounter the ... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso and Berning ZH270 combo noise. Hi Nr9, I have a Berning Switch mode tubed powered pre-amp ( yes a tube switcher), a Berning Switch Mode powered tube BAM, (Don't ask and I lent it to profone, who still has it and does not want to give it back :)) and a Berning SMP supply Headpho... | |
| Eggleston, Merlin, Jean Marie Reynaud???? You should really hear the TSM's, we're just die hard Merlin fans but does not mean it's the speaker for you, the VSM doesn't take up any more footprint really over the TSM but oh, oh, oh! There must be somebody near you with a pair of these. | |
| Peak Consult Princess speakers? Well Kops, believe what you want, you may even be able to fool some poor souls into believing that as well but the facts always proves itself. | |
| Peak Consult Princess speakers? Kops, I would own any of these speakers in a minute and in fact I do, my point is none of these speakers are over priced, they all have there virtues, my point is, to suggest that the Peaks are over priced is leading in the wrong direction, not on... | |
| Full range speakers with small footprint? Yeah, I'd have to say Merlin as well, they have a small foot print and don't let anyone tell you they don't have Bass. | |
| Peak Consult Princess speakers? All these are great speakers and the choice should be yours to make but for someone to say that the Peaks are over price is wrong, for instance, the Empress uses more expensive proprietary drivers from the same company that Verity uses as well as ... | |
| Seeking hot running amps Hi Ralph, yes, class A does have its sonic attributes, I never said it did not, but the heat is an issue, what you say go against studies done by the US military and us, showing that tube life is directly affected by heat, the higher the shorter t... | |
| Tube takeover The Chinese would like nothing better. | |
| Seeking hot running amps Well, there is more than just "HEAT" when there is heat, there are tradeoffs, for every degree something runs hot, there is a reduction in reliability, as well, the heat comes from somewhere, it's energy, wasted energy, you wouldn't run your car f... | |
| help me spend money-which high end speakers? Ozy, Duke got it pretty right, good job Duke! another speaker I would say you listen too is the Peak Consult. | |
| Tenor 75 w/ Sonus Faber Amati Homage? Franco has used one of our amps, a Berning ZH-270 for years, as a design reference, so no problem with 70 watts at all! A lot of people have success with regular OTL's and 4 ohms speakers, so that should not be a problem either, however this is ne... | |
| Peak Consult Zoltan vs Sonus faber Amati Annivers Oh, Oh, I do, I do!We used the Empress at the CES and heard the Zoltan with that crazy turntable, we were very impressed with these speakers, the timber was one of the things that really took our hearts.And I am damn jealous of your predicament!Allan |
