| Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks @srama Yes, for some reason Jensen does not list a 'XLR in, RCA out' subwoofer transformer, but they will provide them! | |
| Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks I just realized that the MP-3 comes with ONLY balanced inputs. My external phono stage only has single ended outputs - can I use a simple rca to xlr cable or do I have to select the version with optional single ended inputs? Also, does the pream... | |
| Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks @srama The MP-3 has no problem driving the class D to clipping, if that's what you mean. It supports +4dBm which is far more Voltage than most power amps need. | |
| Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks One thing I noticed in comparison to the other two amps under discussion is the significantly larger number of tubes in the MP-3 - is this because it is the only truly balanced preamplifier is this set? Does this have any implications on maintena... | |
| Things I don‘t know 1. In the digital domain it is very easy to shift polarity of recordings and the effects are very audible. Yet few devices offer the capability even in very high end systems. @antigrunge2 We've had a polarity switch on our preamps since their ... | |
| Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks I understand if you would rather not do so in a public forum, but it would be great to hear your engineer’s perspective on the Spatial Raven and the Backert Labs Rhumba, and how the MP3 differs from these designs (or provide some links if you hav... | |
| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp Unfortunately, opamps are limited in not being able to dissipate much heat due to the small package size. Very few opamps are designed to be used with heat sinks. So the only way to keep heat emission low is efficient Class AB output stages, rely... | |
| Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks It is definitely on my short list, as long as remote capability is available. @srama The remote is an option (no charge); scroll down and you'll see it. http://www.atma-sphere.com/en/mp-3.html Decades ago when we developed the MP-1, part of t... | |
| Technics SL-1200G Mat Recommendations Honestly, I don’t know any better matt for the price under $400 @chakster Try the Oracle mat. | |
| Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing @srama No. | |
| Manley snapper vs Atma-sphere M60 Old thread, new question. How about Cornwall IV with these 2 amp choices? @fbpearce That speaker is a benign load for either amp. | |
| Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing The fact still remains that Albertos amps use a switching device nobody else can source. Again, one that was designed for Audio, not for a battery charger or DC power supply. The only parameter that can make a GaNFET more suitable for audio is... | |
| Pass XP-17 and Hana ML loading question And what I meant by saying "terrible" was, sporrans and mid got clipped about 30% while bass got big but hollow and muddy no definition at al just slams of senseless sonic boom, and on top of that when record ended and I raised arm I heard harm... | |
| Something new. Ralph, are you therefore opposed to a table having separate tone arm pods? I think I am, as to me it seems logical. @bdp24 Arm pods being desperate from the plinth of the platter so coupling between the two isn't good. So this type of setup is ... | |
| Pass XP-17 and Hana ML loading question Yes, circuits are diametrically different that is a fact, but loading the cartridge should have same effect on cartridge performance , sound of it at least on the dynamic level should be similar to the loads on 15 at least in the characteristic o... |
