| Suggestions for an amp +1 @soix. You definitely have to get a stereo integrated amp with HT bypass, even the ones that has no HT bypass feature you can always use a stereo analog audio input on the stereo integrated amp and set the volume at 80 out of 100. 80 is usually... | |
| New speakers for my system @areed622 Couple yrs ago I’ve briefly heard a pair of higher end model Vandersteen speakers (couldn’t remember which model), the ones that cost around $30k/pair, paired with all Audio Research gears and they sounded fabulous together. Very smooth ... | |
| Oppo 205 modification @ricevs Hi Ric, I have the Oppo 205 that I use strictly for only 4k uhd & bluray movie disc playbacks in my dedicated HT room. I run both HDMI outputs, HDMI audio only out to my Classe SSP 800 processor and the other HDMI video only out direct... | |

| Autoformer vs Speaker impedance Curve @73max You might want to clean the fan filter.In regards to the Classe Omega Reference monoblock amps that are for sale and were purchased new in 2004. There’s no way to confirm that unless you get the serial # from the seller and contact Classe a... | |
| Autoformer vs Speaker impedance Curve I I agree with Georgehifi. Your noisy fan on your Classe CA-2300 was probably caused by dirty filters on the fan. You might want to check your filter. Cause the fans on all my Classe CAM-600, CAM-300 & two CA-2300 amps that I have in my dedica... | |
| Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor Yes, just get a compact class D five-channel amp such as the Classe Sigma Amp5. I have heard the Classe Sigma Amp5 & Amp2 at a dealer right when they first came out in 2015 so it's been a while ago, but yesterday I had a chance to hear it agai... | |
| Autoformer vs Speaker impedance Curve I personally have never heard Pass XA-160.8 or any Pass amps on the B&W. I have heard Pass amps on different speakers such as Focal, Magico etc But not on B&W. | |
| Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor @rshad0000 Yes, Room Perfect implementation in the Lyngdorf MP-50 is said to be excellent. What power amp(s) are you using? Are you using all Classe Delta series amps?Are you planning to go Atmos setup eg 7.1.6 or 7.1.4? | |

| thoughts on phono stage Look into Audio Research. | |
| Affordable Processor with Fabulous 2 Channel ? The Mac MX122 two-channel performance for music playbacks isn’t on par with the Classe Sigma SSP. The Sigma SSP is better for stereo. For surrounds or HT either the MX122 or the Sigma SSP would be fine. Actually, for surround movies or HT I think... | |
| Audio Research pre-amp with Solid State power amp? Thanks. I initially inherited the D'Agostino stuff, Wilson Audio Alexx speakers from my dad when he passed away. And later on I upgraded the setup and system. |
