| Bower and Wilkins and its relationship with Classe and Rotel @bombaywalla, you are certainly entitled to your opinion. I have owned wide variety of Delta series amps in last 10 years and anyone out there will concur with me that their sound is no where near etched, screechy, bright, brittle or metallic. Cla... | |
| Bower and Wilkins and its relationship with Classe and Rotel ct0517,interesting read re. the B&W BAF.I read the Ken Rockwell dissertation on the BAF & I believe there’s a typo in Fig 6 - 11 (that seems to be verified as one scrolls lower to the Rohde & Schwarz plots). The freq range (along x-axi... | |
| Bower and Wilkins and its relationship with Classe and Rotel "Oh, I didn’t know BMW made speakers" funny! my dad said that when I showed him DM604S2 back then (I was driving a BMW also back then so i'm sure he had that auto brand in his mind).... ;-) | |
| Do ClassDAudio Amps Have Proper Decay Of Notes? In my experience power amps are significantly less important to the sound than speakers, preamps and cartridges,that is sooooo wrong!!

| What used speaker would you buy with $20,000-$35,000 and why? I definitely agree with Almarg & rzado re. seriously auditioning (with a preference to buy) a Sound Lab ESL speaker. whatever you do make sure that you get a time-coherent speaker (most of the speakers on your list are not time-coherent). The ... | |
| Bower and Wilkins and its relationship with Classe and Rotel thanks for your post ct0517.@ bombaywallaThey can be if not set up right. This is after all about setup and the sum of all the parts. i’m afraid that I don’t fully agree. if a piece of audio gear is correctly designed it’s sensitivity to the other... | |
| effectiveness of power filters. Distortion with the Ultimate Outlet in place was 3.8. Output distortion in both cases was flickering between .5 and .6. Does this surprise anyone besides me?This is not surprising. I believe that you are mistaken re. what the PS Audio UO is sup... | |
| Arcam irDAC-II. Have you heard the news? It will include the ESS ES9016 Sabre DACach, the wrong kind of DAC IC (delta-sigma DAC) as far as I'm concerned. Not interested, thank you! | |
| DAC Choices today? I'm looking to upgrade from my EAR ACute III to a new DAC. Currently trying out the impressive Aesthetix Romulus which offers a bigger richer sound with lots of detail. How does this DAC stack up against the competition for those who are familiar ... | |
| Can you smell your speakers when youre rockin out? GMA also do not honor their warranty. you kept the speakers for 2+ years. from the report you filed with the BBB of CO you wrote you opened the speaker yourself & tried to fix (like you know anything about speaker design by your own admission!... | |
| Sierra Denali good one theothergreg!! :-)amps made by Peter Noerbaek (hope i got the spelling of the last name correct??) of PBN Audio, the same outfit that makes Montana speakers. | |
| Bower and Wilkins and its relationship with Classe and Rotel that’s right - Classe became part of B&W in 2001 while ROTEL became part of B&W back in 1981. Just FYI - ROTEL is a Taiwanese brand. It was founded in Taiwan in 1957 & the founder soon after that moved to Japan.I’ve not heard B&W +... | |
