Is D for Dry? Class D...
Well, "10Audio" just did a mini review of a pair of class D amps and...ouch! I wonder if they were defective? @grk No, its more likely that Jerry is behaving the same way he did 25 years ago. At that time he dissed our products (by changing pr... 
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble?
'All' or most that you know of? At any rate, I have to agree with you that 'knowledge levels and skills' is an issue. People seem to get into this sport out of desire rather than if they have the education or not. If you take the time to read Dr... 
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble?
Tubes units normally have really high RIAA deviation 20hz-20khz some witn a swing over 1 db and why is important this deviation?: because we are talking of a curve where any discrete frequency deviation affects around 2 octaves in that RIAA curve... 
Do high dollar mono blocks truly improve the Sound Quality over the mid tier amps
Atmosphere. When are you going to be coming out with a new even better model Gan Fet amplifier ? @audioman58 What is meant by 'even better'?  
Need A 10-30 watt Tube Power Amp, Lower Heat Output, Which Sounds Great, Under $1500 Used
You might also have someone refurbish an old Dynaco SCA-35- then you wouldn't need the preamp.  
Do high dollar mono blocks truly improve the Sound Quality over the mid tier amps
The Class D's also offer a viable alternative as @audioman58 suggests.  Low energy consumption and light weight.features are very compelling.  @skinzy Its not just low heat and light weight! Class D offers design criteria to the designer that a... 
Do high dollar mono blocks truly improve the Sound Quality over the mid tier amps
Unfortunately, no one in this thread has responded to my question directly based on direct personal experience with an upgrade. @skinzy I did. Apparently you didn't consider my answer valid, even though it was based on exactly what you asked ab... 
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble?
@pindac Could you explain the 'Very touchy' remark? I was simply pointing out fact. Did you take it differently? This is nothing to do with sales FWIW.  
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble?
 I don't agree the Math only is the defining information that should create a shortlist of options to investigate. The end sound and how it impresses is the one element that really matters. @pindac FWIW, math is what was used to make any audio ... 
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble?
@lalitk If the very best sound is your goal then I'd would not limit my search to SUTs only! There are plenty of phono sections that can run LOMC cartridges straight in and IMO, some offer noticeably more clarity and bandwidth.   
Watts! How many do we need?
However, based on my basic search, amplifier specs don't advertise/disclose this info.I need one more variable. @tee_dee The variable that tells the most about how an amplifier will sound is distortion vs frequency, which is a chart with a curv... 
Can an owner's manual and schematic be found for an Electron Kinetics eagle 7a power amp
@gmosley Any competent technician can replaced filter capacitors! You don't need to send the amp to someone who specializes in them if that's all it needs.  
Do high dollar mono blocks truly improve the Sound Quality over the mid tier amps
 I've been considering upgrading these amps to the next price/quality level.  My biggest concern is whether I'll get the level of improvement in SQ that will move the needle. @skinzy 'The next level' has little to do with price just so you know... 
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble?
Good point, I am focusing on ‘custom’ SUT’s that are designed specifically to mate my choice of the cart’s.  @lalitk OK- keep in mind that if you have an SUT designed for a particular cartridge, if you change out the cartridge, you may have to ...
