| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) The Marantz HD-AMP1 is sort of an Enigma. Between reviews and discussions, it’s either the best budget amp ever or a piece of crap lol. I guess maybe the truth is usually in between. I think it uses less powerful hypex?Thanks for the Rogue info. B... | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) Well, so far the Parasound HINT is my benchmark (with the C7es3) by which all others will be judged: After trying the Heed Elixir for a longer listen with a friend, it’s not a keeper at all. Parasound blows it away. Case in point, listening to Rad... | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) mr_mWhat kind of modules do the Rogues use? | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) What I do know is that in one of these tests supposedly the Nuprime Ref 20 fared very well. Did you hear the same? | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) toetapaudioI saw in another discussion you mentioned Nord as being good in the affordable range. I'm wondering if any of these tests you are talking about included IcePower 1200AS based amps as well as the Hypex stuff? | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) Now this is getting good... | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) Any class D integrateds out there around the same price as the Parasound HINT that compare favorably with it?Are the Wyred 4 Sound units on that level? I've not heard their gear yet but I hear good things. I would put the Primare I25 on that level. | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) BTW the Primare I25/I35 use proprietary class D tech where as the I15 uses Hypex modules, but again not the more powerful modules. | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) Well I am looking up to 2k used and I’m class agnostic. I’m putting together a system from scratch around the speakers I’ve wanted for awhile now, C7es3’s. I do have a Job Integrated which works very well with the Harbeths but I want to have an up... | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) im Willing to go back to separates if I have to, just it would be nice to have the choice without it being a huge compromise. | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) I did find the Marantz PM10 that is based on the NC500 but that is $8k, so not in my definition of affordable. | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) yes but which Hypex? Not the higher end modules that I'm aware of. | |
| Best new or used intergrated amp or separates for Vienna Acoustics Mozart Grand Speakers rockeymarkbThere is a Primare I-32 on Agon right now for $1399. A couple others sold recently around the same, depending on DAC or no DAC. | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) It looks like the Nord INT can be had with the IcePower 1200AS2, so there's one at least. Still haven't seen an NC500 based integrated yet. LKV is a good suggestion. I'm sure it sounds great but again it's based on a lower end Hypex module. | |
| Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) I forgot to mention Wyred 4 Sound, although I'm not sure which IcePower modules they use. I hear nothing but good things though. |
