| What is missing here? @aewarren. Your posts say a lot about you. I certainly hope that you never find yourself in a position of disadvantage because someone failed to disclose something to you..Maybe then we can talk about comprehension...or lack thereof! | |
| What is missing here? @daj Perhaps you are trying to read too much into what I am getting at... | |
| What is missing here? Folks, where do I give the impression that I am the one being misled from the article I quoted in the OP? Absolute Sound is a magazine that is read by a wide variety of audience demographic. ( Most probably fairly experienced audiophiles, BUT NOT ... | |
| What is missing here? @p05129 You are right, I am NOT a seasoned a'phile, certainly no where near as seasoned ( whoever that means?) as you! ;0)@aewarren Does it not concern you at least a little bit that the reviewer in the Absolute Sound ( NOT Stereophile) omitted... | |
| What is missing here? @millercarbon Chuck, If you don’t like my thread, I suggest you place it on ignore. | |
| What is missing here? @daj Please point to where I have stated I have a grievance with the amps designer! Not the case at all. @mrdecibel Unfortunately, what a lot of folks rely on to get their education on an audio product is a review of said product in a well recogn... | |
| What is missing here? The amplifier may not have failings in doing what it was designed to do, within its very very limited parameters. That’s not the point here, what is the point is that the reviewer never brought up the limitations that are inherent with a design li... | |
| What is missing here? @daj That is precisely what I am getting at. Although you seem to negate this, I believe that a reviewer has a responsibility to a reader to educate them as to what the possible issues (failings) of the product are...and not, as some of the other ... | |
| What is missing here? @mijostyn Agreed and disagreed. While I agree with you that basically the amp in question is essentially useless for the vast majority of users, particularly if they are using anything but horns. I disagree that low power amps do not have value. ... | |
| What is missing here? @atmasphere Thanks Ralph. Your post explains a lot and is certainly very instructive. Apparently the amp has 10% distortion at 9watts. I would have to believe that this is audible. Therefore, a match to the most efficient speakers one could find ... | |
| What is missing here? @millercarbon The specs section is not really where most readers are going to look that closely, at least IMO. The information on the output is not highlighted in any way in the spec section. Like I stated, the extremely low output is not mention... | |
| Questions for Sonus Faber owners @greycoupe Which strings are you referring to? The ones on the stand or the ones on the grill covers? | |
| Am I asking too much? Perhaps this B&M dealer really doesn't have the expertise that he needs to set up a cartridge like a Koetsu! If that is the case, he would be wise to disclose that to you...OTOH, he did say he would do it at full price, which leads me to quest... | |
| D'agostino amplifiers: where's the beef? A good friend of mine and a fellow a’phile brought up an interesting point when we were discussing some of the high end pricing...he simply stated it was "comical"!! I would agree with his statement in many instances in this hobby. | |
| Turned Off My Subwoofer ... And My Speakers Sound Great I also use a very small listening room. In my room, with two REL T5i’s the soundfield and extension is slightly better than with my speakers by themselves. The key I think, is to make sure you are not impacting the mains..if the mains sound better... |
