| Any non-box or non-black grey amplifiers? Check out a Pass Labs (Aleph) amp on this site or at www.passlabs.comThese amps sound as good as they look! | |
| Lexicon MC-12, Anthem AVM-20, B &K Ref 30? Well,I've sat on my hands & bit my tongue long enough! Here's my vote for best budget surround & 2 channel pre amp. Try an Adcom GFP750 & mate it with a B&K REF 30. You'll have "Class A" 2 channel & a sophisticated "middle of t... | |
| Lexicon MC-12, Anthem AVM-20, B &K Ref 30? Wow, maybe this will stir up even more controversy. I've heard the latest Lexicon & Proceed. I have friends who own both of those & the latest Theta Casablanca (with the best DACS).I'd try to demo any of the processors you mention, in YOUR... | |
| Bridging or monoblocking?? Which amp is it? | |
| It's a Bad Movie, But It Was Fun to Watch Anyway Memento was the worst movie I've ever seen. Pulp fiction was the second worst. Then I saw Reservoir Dogs. It's now the worst movie I've ever seen.From Dusk to Dawn is one of my favorite movies. I'd rather see Selma Hayek dance with a snake than se... | |
| Beyond SACD with Redbook: Price No Object You can buy a used Sony 777SACD player for around $1500. Buy a few SACDs, try it out. If you're not happy, sell it for what you paid.I bought mine 2 months ago, it sounds better than my Sony XA7ES. I'm keeping both...If you really like the 777 sou... | |
| Jeff Rowland Amps? Find a picture of a Model 2 or Model 8 with the cover off. Then see one in the flesh-close up.Quality, Quality, Quality. | |
| What is your most anal audio habit? Being on the web at 10:00 p.m. on a SATURDAY night... | |
| Running 4 ohm speaks on bridged amp...ok? I'll try again. When you bridge an amp and use it to drive a 4 ohm speaker, the amp sees a 2 ohm load. NO, the impedance of the speaker doesn't change, but the impedance load the amplifier sees driving the speaker is halved. I have had several con... | |
| Running 4 ohm speaks on bridged amp...ok? I think you should bi-amp rather than bridge, if possible.Remember, bridging cuts the damping factor (bass control) in half. I used a stereo amp on each of my MG3.3Rs & it worked great.Daniel | |
| What is your most anal audio habit? I don't put a new CD case in my CD rack until I've taken off that little bit of adhesive that always stays on the case, from that stupid little holographic seal they put on under the clear plastic wrapper. The bonehead who thought up that sticker ... | |
| "Speakers" always up for sale--Poor Performers?? Based on my experience here in Phoenix & watching the web,I'd say you've probably noticed what one of my local dealers calls "flavor of the month" syndrome. A speaker or other component will get a rave review in one or two of the high end maga... | |
| KRELL 700 cx vs pass labs x600 Damon,I own a Pair of Pass Aleph 2s & a PassAleph 3, so I'll just admit my bias first. I prefer the Pass sound over Krell in every instance I've compared the two. I think between the amps you're mentioning, the Pass 600s have the high ground s... | |
| Am I doing my speakers Justice? I believe the Dreadnaught is an excellent amp. Have you gotten it to clip in your system/room? The X350 is excellent! You might not need that much power...YES, I am serious, I prefer quality over quantity in an amp. You might be able to go to an X... | |
| Best Preamp to Use With JeffRowalnd Model 2/BPS I have a Model 2 with BPS. I recently upgraded from an Adcom GFP750 to a Pass Aleph P. I have 2 friends who owned Synergys. I borrowed one (before he went to a home-made BPS). It did sound good but my Pass is at least equal everywhere. The Synergy... |
