| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Marklarsen and Tugen5 please have your class D, rules party. One thing was fascinating that in the very review we found prasing the amps the reviewer also found a whole bunch of areas where a conventional amplifier was far better sounding that was... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Tgun you are using a tube preamp and a dsd based dac your results are going to be different than others using these amps with different gear also Martin Logans are shelved in the extreme top end.We are delighed you love your gear many people have ... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Guess Testpilot also feels the sameTo answer your direct question, yes the REF600 will drive the Magico A3, but I agree with Audio Troy's assessment regarding the dry sounding nature of the REF600 which may become more evident with the hyper detai... | |
| WHAT SHOULD BE MY NEXT SYSTEM UPGRADE? Op here is our take on what direction you should takePersonally we would recommend that you try a high end ref integrated.We know you tried a Luxman and it clipped there are better sounding and much more powerful integrated amplifiers.Before clipp... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Mark larsen we know many of these reviewers do you honestly think because someone writes for a magazine they know more or can magically hear better? | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Mark Larsen sorry to disagree but look at a few other reviews on this amp. Another reviewer prefered an Anthem M1 which is an okay sounding amp at bestNor did we recommend any amp in our previous posts we did say the Anthem STR was similarily pric... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Sorry Tgun If you owed a store for any length of time you would know the answer.If you want the A3 you would bring in a pair and try them out with your system. Unless anyone here has exactly the same setup and your tastes the answer is of very lit... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Thanks EBM. Did you notice from our first post we said that those amps with a tube preamp and a warmish digital front end that such a combo could sound good.The later post from the OP showed exactly that combo was what he was using. Kind of verify... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? No Tgun, we don't like Bel Canto's Class D, don't like Hypex nor Ncore, We have heard some Class D amplifiers that were decent, the fact that you owned a high end store 15 years ago doesn't mean anything, almost all of the modern amplifiers around... | |
| Roon Nucleus vs Innuos Dep most people find that the Dac will only sound as good as what you feed it. The Salk Streamer is a fine piece but would it be in the class of an Innous don’t think so. The Salk steamer looks to be a mini pc running tweaked Linux and Roon. There... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Tgun, as we speculated you are running tubes and a softer sounding digital front end which adds a sense of body to the amps.Personally we do not like Ncore or Hypex, the only Class D we have found to be decent is the Nuforce Ref 9Se V3, the Nuprim... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Mr larsen we like tons of products we dont sell. | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? Yes EBM we have over 30 years of professional experience, what's yours?Your quip seems to bemoan the fact that the OP is wrestling with this issue, it is not cut and dry for so many people, hence what seems obvious to you is not to the OP hence th... | |
| Innuos Statement Review Op congrats on the Statement you ain't heard anything yet.The Statement use tons of Mundorf caps which really don't come alive unitl you have hit 300 plus hours. We are one of Innous's top dealers and we have heard a very noticable improvement wit... | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? The amplfiers will drive them but they would not be a good match. The A3 will show all the deficiencies of the Bel Canto's class D technlology. The Bel Canto's are powerful with good bass and great dynamics, they are howerver very dry and a bit m... |
