| TRL WON'T GIVE ME MY AMP ^^ Dang! I wish I had known that years ago. We had several pieces stolen essentially due to the internet. | |
| tube pre-amp for active monitors Could be. And there are balanced tube preamps available too. What is your budget and do you need a phono section? | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Wilson, Thiel, ML esl’s, MBL, Sonus Faber JM labsOf these only the Thiel is really difficult to drive. We have customers with Wilson, Martin Logan and JM Labs. And we make tube amps that don't double power or even act as a voltage source. The mbls... | |
| 30 Watts of class A power: What Speakers are you using and suggesting? Do you have a budget? | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Sez you, some of the very best are insanely hard to drive, and why class-d, OTL and you have a problem with that.Sez the specs of all amps. Obviously this statement is misleading; George is cherry picking. On the one hand he likes to trot out Ster... | |
| power amp/pre amp input and output impedence question what effect can be expected from a miss match.What does an output impedence of 1.2k ohm say to the expert......If the ratio is less than 10:1 you might have less headroom before the preamp makes distortion. There would also be more overall distort... | |
| Which stereo amp to try under $30k - Prefer not tubes (already have a tube line stage - too hot for small children and don't fit in rack)- I'm ok with a colored sound. Prefer musicality and realism over "accuracy" or "neutrality"- Needs an absolute minimum of 150W based on how loud... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load By all means please show the do’s in Class-D, hopefully independently tested, impedance v rms wattage all at just before clipping into 8, 4 and 2ohms, the same distortion figures.Ha! That's pretty funny! **No** amplifier will have the same disto... | |
| I need some techy help in order a preamp--resistor values. I've used passives and a slew of actives for 40+ years. Each has a sound. Each interacts with cables and associated electronics. There is no free lunch.SMD resistors have lower inductance and thus have a different sound than leaded parts. Howe... | |
| power amp/pre amp input and output impedence question The rule of thumb is the input impedance should be at least 10 times the output impedance!'Input impedance' referring to the amp, 'output impedance' referring to the preamp. | |
| High value, giant killer speakers? Audiokinesis (Duke) has made giant killers for a long time.His Dreammakers are better than many speakers that cost 3 times more. They are also easy to drive which always helps keep amplifier distortion down. Very neutral, nice extension, excellent... | |
| I need some techy help in order a preamp--resistor values. OK I'm not a fan of passive controls- so often I've seen them reduce bass impact and dynamic quality while otherwise seeming to be 'neutral'.But having been in the industry for over 4 decades I can tell you that expensive resistors are expensive :... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Of course you can take my word for anything I say I hear. Also, because I am not in the business I tell things like it is without concern for politics. I didn't doubt you :)This thread should have been finished after the 5th post. I think your... | |
| Help chose : Hafler 110 preamp or Carver C2 preamp ?? Why these two preamps? Are there none others in the area? | |
| Warm Class D for horns? I'm panning to build a 3 way loudspeakers, radial horn, super horn tweeter, and woofer, at first I was considering just use Class D for the 12" woofer, but what about Class D amp for the horns and super tweeter, anyone using?efficient speakers ... |
