Bi-Amping But I do not understand why the pre-amp needs to be cranked all the way up just to get nearly the same sound (dB) I had previously, using a single amplifier in bi-wire mode and yet the pre-amp would allow the amp to clip if I drove it to hard- (ar... | |
Bi-Amping Well the B&K PT-5 pre-amp has an active Low pass section @80Hz, while the rest is thru the typical crossover network with in my speakers. Mind you it sounds very very good, I am mainly concerned with the matter of the B&K's output via a ma... | |
How much is too much... Heh, this is a tough one. One manufactures 100wpc sounds totally different then the next one. It greatly depends on a few very important factors:Speakers efficentcy, room size, amperage output from a given amplifier, and finally, source material.H... | |
Subwoofer Amp Recommendations Room size determines the true freq. responce of ANY subwoofer. There fore common sence dictates that SPL will rise as power output rises in a given room. While you may be able to "feel" something below 20Hz, you certainly will not be able to hear ... | |
Best 3 "channel" Amp "Under $2000.00" ??? "NEW" Parasound | |
PSB Gold,tweeter upgrade. I would go with the focal's or morel mdt-33's- but then I prefer a soft dome tweeter over a metal dome any day. :)btw I got mine here-->www.partsexpress.com | |
PSB Stratus Goldi vs Paradigm Studio 100 v2 Well in my humble opinion my legacy focus's sound far better than the gold's. The gold's are indeed a nice speaker, but as I stated in another thread- they require far to much power (inefficent) to equal the dynamics and spl of many other speakers... | |
Good value upgrade from PSB STRATUS GOLDS to ? One other thing, as for power- I have several:Proton D-1200 (1500wpc transients, 7.3db HR)Parasound HCA-3500 (350wpc)2-AB International 1100A's (bridged) (1300wpc)2-QSC RX-1400's (bridged) (800wpc)The above amplifiers will drive any speaker, very ... | |
Good value upgrade from PSB STRATUS GOLDS to ? hello guys, I would like to add that the Golds, while their sound stage is very nice, are very inefficient speakers. By way of example, I also own B&W 603's, Cerwin Vega's DX-9's (very loud), And Legacy Focus (I love the Focus') and the PSB's ... |
