| Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations I second Pathos hybrid InPol design. My Heritage MKii is integrated and is my endgame. Rock solid bass and air mids and highs. I’d assume their hybrid separates are of equal quality. Worth a listen. Especially sublime with my Tannoy Kensingtons.... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @jfrmusic worth every pound, dollar and euro! lol | |
| Handling Heavy Amps I’m in the same situation with a Pathos Heritage MKii integrated weighing almost 180lbs. Whenever it comes or goes for delivery or moving, I hire a guy from Dolly or Taskrabbit. Costs $100 for a hour but I’ve had good success. Moving slightly fo... | |
| A Few Nice Words For Upscale Audio +1 for Upscale and Pathos sales and service! Great experience on several purchases including Pathos after sales service. Two very fine companies. | |
| REL Hum. Stumped Had a similar issue with my S/812. For some reason on AC in my duplex outlet caused a hum. The other did not. REL suggested running an RCA (assuming you are using high and not low connection?) to my integrated. That helped as well. N... | |
| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing @jjss49 Lots of DACs! My journey is not so comprehensive, but I have also ended up in the Chord (DAVE) plus M Scaler camp. With the recent addition of a Sean Jacobs DC4/ARC6 external LPS the DAVE is both detailed and lush. My DACs Schitt Modi ... | |
| Help with speaker selection I’ve travelled a similar path from “precision and accuracy” with Focal Kanta 3’s and Rockport Atria ii’s with D’Agostino solid state back to Tannoy Kensingtons with Pathos Heritage MKIi hybrid and a more “musical” to me presentation which is where... | |
| What to do with a large collection @rvpiano Is your LP collection catalogued? | |
| XLR recomendation @carlsbad2 Meant to say that the Heritage is a fully balanced integrated amp. It has both balanced and SE. Because it’s balanced it’s been suggested to use XLR rather than RCA with DAVE. Though I’m enjoying my. Syn Res RCA’s. Will be interesting ... | |
| XLR recomendation @carlsbad2 Sorry to be unclear. Bad capacitor or resistor in the right XLR. Hopefully won’t need to replace the entire board. Haven’t had a chance to send infor inspection/repair yet. I had been using XLR before the problem occurred. | |
| XLR recomendation @carlsbad2 my amp is balanced. Pathos Heritage MKii. Thanks. | |
| XLR recomendation @glennewdick Thanks for the heads up. | |
| XLR recomendation @soix My DAVE right XLR channel is burnt so I’m using RCA for now. Sold my only decent Transparent Ref XLR and need another. Transparent was fine. Most of my cables are Transparent. Just looking for alternative suggestions. Thx | |
| Checking for crossover and driver issues @gs5556 Thanks for the information. I will be sending the amp in for service. Not using the Tannoy ground. Also, the amp isn’t plugged into a wall AC. It runs from a Transparent PowerIsolator. I tried it directly from the wall to no avail. Th... | |
| Checking for crossover and driver issues Thanks. I just connected the Kensingtons to my NAIM ATOM and they work perfectly. I’m told by my tech that means there is no issue with the speakers. What an amazing little machine the NAIM ATOM is BTW. It’s normally running Tannoy Mini Autogra... |
