| Differences between Accuphase C-2820 and C-3800? Hi Bvdiman - as Nvp has correctly pointed out, the A-46 has two switches on its front panel for Speaker A and Speaker B. I have to manually switch one off and the other on when alternating between speakers.I use Auditorium 23 and Crystal Microdiam... | |
| Differences between Accuphase C-2820 and C-3800? Hi Bvdiman - yes the K6s sounds fabulous with the A-46, but they are not bi-wired. I actually connect a second pair of speakers to the amp's speaker B terminals so I can enjoy a different sound when I want it.For example, for late night listening ... | |
| Differences between Accuphase C-2820 and C-3800? Hi Nvp - apologies for the late reply. Yes the upgrade bug has bitten and yes I have listened to the A-46 versus the P-6100 and preferred the A-46 which I thought was a lot more musical, especially with the ribbons on my K6s. I considered the A-65... | |
| Adding an Accuphase A-46 Hi Nvp & Dave_72, sorry for the delay in replying - been very busy figuring out my next hifi move! You guys have been very helpful - many thanks for all the input!I'm still not sure what I'm going to do but I guess doing the research and audio... | |
| Anyone tried biamping with an Accuphase E-560? Many thanks Paul. Yes, you're absolutely right and I am now exploring the dedicated pre-power route. Cheers! | |
| Anyone tried biamping with an Accuphase E-560? Thanks Edwyun. | |
| Anyone tried biamping with an Accuphase E-560? Hi Nvp and Dave_72, thanks for your input. Yes buying either amp is not an issue, but I'd like to keep the E-560 for the time being before swapping it for a dedicated preamp.Im wondering if I do go the biamping route, would be ok to use either one... | |
| Anyone tried biamping with an Accuphase E-560? Any advice would be much appreciated. Anyone? | |
| Adding an Accuphase A-46 Actually, I just checked - the E-560's brochure states that an Ext Pre button allows separation of the preamplifier from the power amp section, so I don't think excess heat will be generated if used only as a preamplifier. Thanks for warning anywa... | |
| Adding an Accuphase A-46 Good point Spinaker01, I was under the impression that the power amp section of the E-560 shuts down when used as a preamplifier. I'll have to check this with the dealer, as well as various prices of preamps if I decide to upgrade. Thanks. | |
| Adding an Accuphase A-46 Thanks guys. I guess other than considerations relating to added power, my concern is how good the preamp section of the E-560 might be. Dave 72 - thanks for your input on this point. | |
| Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following Harbeth's website describes their sound as "fresh'' and "natural'' which I think are very accurate adjectives.To my ears the sound is also warm and relaxing, which should appeal to fans of most genres of music (except heavy metal/rap).Other than s... | |
| Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time Yes I leave my Continuum 500 on 24/7. I only switch it off when going away on holiday.Previously, I used Naim amps - NAC 82 pre amp, 2 Hicap power supplies and 2 NAP 135 monoblocks. Everything - including my Marantz CD-10 player which incidentally... | |
| Which Sugden for my Spendors? Chayro and Mlsstl - thanks for your suggestions, you've given me food for thought. Certainly lowering the stands might work; as for a tube amp - I'll try to get a Leben on loan from a dealer I know. Cheers guys! | |
| Spendor SP 1/2R - opinions? Thanks guys for the feedback. I've just heard the SP 1/2Rs and have to say they were amazing. |
