Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
@atmasphereRalph, while I respect your opinions and body of work, another fine line can easily be drawn between marketing and advertising. You have mentioned to me in the past Audiogon is where you spend most of your marketing efforts. I have a de...

But here’s the kicker: This thread was put up as a promotional device. You can tell because the manufacturer is talking about his products, often more than once in many of his posts. This is against the Audiogon rules, but because I and others are...

In a separate post your "intake guy" Clio-something really gave me the business about being a troll and not having anything technical to add. Actually, I said you bring zero value. The statement wasn't referring to just technical value. Perhaps y...

Also, FWIW, I’ll mention that Keith Herron, whose company and products (especially his phono stage) are about as non-controversial and highly regarded as they come, suggests that with his particular phono stage no loading whatsoever will often ...

@fsonicsmithLet me ask you this Roger; other than one of Ralph’s amps, which modern era top-tier tube amps have you actually sat down and listened to with not just your own planar speakers, but also modern coned speakers across a decent spectrum? ...

I probably should have put this in quotes from one of bdp24's posts to eliminate any confusion:Roger Modjeski (@ramtubes) prefers the 6DJ8 for pre-amp use, but I don’t know that he currently offers a phono amp. Roger or clio09?That was what I was...

@bdp24 - technically no, Roger does not offer a new production phono preamp (although we have some unique RM 4+ units lying around that in addition to phono include a volume control and inputs for other sources as well). I have a tape head/phono p...

@bdp24, well that makes more sense. We are not crossing over the Quad in the test set up. However, in our respective RM-3s both Roger and I use 4th order Linkwitz/Riley crossovers, 24 dB slope cut at 100 Hz for high and low pass. Roger also adds s...

@ct0517 - thanks for the response. With the subs in place are you still running the Quads full range, the using the sub fior 60 Hz and under, or are the Quads completely cutoff at 60 Hz?

I should have mentioned this, Roger built a very accurate switch box that has a long cable with a button switch on the end. I could sit at the listening position and click the button at various intervals (3 - 5 seconds generally) so going from A&g... 
Joule-Electra VAMP Integrated
Yeah me too. Regret never trying one.

@bdp24 - Eric this has truly been an eye opener. Roger can now do A/Bing on any number of amps. Fritz Heilor lives in the area recently donated a pair of speakers to us to use in a biamping experiment (Roger is impressed with his designs), so besi... 
Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
Regarding the A/B testing, while we began last weekend Roger spent the better part of the week optimizing the set up, no easy task said he. He has now been inviting folks over to listen and I took another stab at it today. This time I brought some...

@ct0517 - nice set up. I sometimes use my RM-10 with my ESL 57s in biamp set up. The Class AB amp I use for the bottom is a Luxman M-02. I use the Beveridge RM-3 (no remote) to crossover at 100 Hz, 4th order crossovers for both high and low pass. ...
