| 25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ? Pani,The Ayon Crossfire from your description could be an ideal match with your Tannoy. I hope you're able to listen to it and the Atma-sphere OTL as well. I've heard the M 60 and MA-1 numerous times and they're very good amplifiers. I just person... | |
| Speakers for SET 8 Watt 300B system? Brownsfan,Considering your long and happy ownership of the Maggies that's quite an endorsement of the Triumphs. Charles, | |
| DAC help For my tube rig Guf,That's a very nice system you've put together, must sound really good.Charles, | |
| Romulus CD player-- Bill,The Star Sound Sistrum platforms have been very worthwhile and exceptionally cost effective in my system. I'm not surprised that you like them. The Apprentice versions are really an asset. Charles, | |
| Coincident Linestage vs CJ CT5 or Allnic L-3000 Word of mouth says the new Coincident Extreme power cables are genuinely quite special. Are they equal to the listed group by Dmarkov? Their cost is mere fractions of those mentioned, so they certainly aren't a high risk proposition. With Coincide... | |
| Romulus CD player-- Grannyring,It doesn't matter how you purchased your Romulus DAC, the point is that you got it and are happy with it. I don't know why some people are concerned with how other adults choose to spend their money. Vacation travel, audio components, j... | |
| DAC help For my tube rig I've heard the Auralic Vega and the Lampizator Big 5 DAC in the same system of a good friend. The Vega is very good sounding but the Lampizator is a true level above, simply better across the board IMO. I don't care for the Ayre (but you certainly... | |
| Romulus CD player-- Grannyring wrote "I just want to listen to the music more than the sound with the Romulus". That essentially says it all. The litmus test for me has been this, do components cause you to get lost in the music or do they have you analyzing the soun... | |
| 25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ? Thanks Dan. I was curious because Tannoy Westminster owners often report very good results with their 300b SET amplifiers. The Westminster may be an easier load for these amps{I'm guessing}.Charles, | |
| 25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ? Dan,Are the older Tannoys an easier load than the current models in general or is your speaker an isolated case? | |
| 25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ? Pani,As much as you like the Wavac it is apparent you admire/adore the Tannoys even more.This being the case, your amplifier search makes sense. You're right, a 14 ohm speaker load is ideal for my situation.The 8 watt SET provides effortless drive... | |
| Romulus CD player-- Grannyring,I thoroughly understand your rationale. At the end of the day simplicity and superb music reproduction are the top priorities for me . I'm glad it all worked out for you.My lack of interest in computer audio is exactly for the reasons y... | |
| Romulus CD player-- Hi Grannyring,I'm stunned by your post, but respect your candor. You've been a very vocal and stanch supporter of computer digital systems. This is quite a change of direction ( I know that ultimately you trust your ears).This borders on shocking ... | |
| 25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ? Pani,Dan makes an excellent point.You say you love your Wavac to its core,If that's true I'd keep this terrific SET and get more compatible speakers. Dan's Tannoys are apparently easier driven than your specific model. Tannoy models must vary in e... | |
| 25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ? Pani,You have received some thoughtful replies with the inevitable varying opinions. I agree that speaker sensitivity isn't the only consideration, the load in ohms probably is more relevant. Pani my room is noticeably larger than yours and my spe... |
