| Jeff Rowland Capri or W4S STP/SE? I own the D2's and the Wyred and I think they are a great combo, but the Rowland looks good. Both preamps have very low output impedance and will work well with the Emotiva's low input impedance. The only issue I can see is that the Rowland looks ... | |
| Wyred 4 Sound STP/SE and Emotiva XPA1 Koestner is right on the money. I have owned the STP-SE for going on 3 years. It is golden with any amp with a input impedance of 8K and above in my experience. I used own a Marsh A400s (balanced input of 4K) horrible match. | |
| Tube preamp for about $1500? I'm a solid state guy so I don't understand the angst over solid state ;)However, I heard the YS Audio Balanced SE in a friends system and it sounded great. Goes for about $1500 on the pacific valve website. | |
| Class D amps Mapman, Thanks for saying what I meant to say. Reading your posts and the post of a few others here on A'gon is what convinced me to get over my fears of trying Class D and I am glad I did. After hearing nearly 10 different amps in my system I hav... | |

| Wyred STP-SE : Break In Times I have owned the STP-SE for almost 3 years now and there could be a few things going on.The first question I have for you is what amp are you using. The STP-SE likes an amp with a high input impedance, 30K or more I'd say. The best experience I ha... | |
| W4S ST-1000, How Loud Should It Play? You should email Wyred. The ST 1000 has a low (or high depending on how you look at it) sensitivity of 2.9V which basically means it needs 2.9V to get to full power. The DAC-2 has a max output of greater than 5V. So there is something going on the... | |
| Wyred 4 Sound STP I'm glad I am not going crazy. The ability of this pre to immerse you in a sort of surround sound effect is amazing. If you want to hear how well this thing uncovers phase information just grab Michael Jackson's Dangerous CD and play track one, it... |
