Jadis amplifiers: rolled off treble? Trelja, I have heard the JA 200 and the DA 88 Signature.Chris | |
midrange forwardness Thank you for your responses. Jordan, as you stated (and as stated in the Soundlab FAQ's) the Soundlabs have raising impedance in the lower frequencies. I've always thought that power amplifiers in general have no trouble driving speakers with hig... | |
Studio/Performance Amps for High-End Systems? Pro audio power amps are only good for... bass amplification :) | |
Studio/Performance Amps for High-End Systems? I might hurt people with the following statement, but I'm afraid this is the truth: Proamps are NOT audiophile quality amps with the exception of two brands: FM Acoustics from Switserland and Rey Audio. Sorry.Chris | |
Wadia 861 SE or 581 SE. But the 861 has the TEAC/Esoteric drive --> this should be the superior drive of the two. The TEAC/Esoteric drive should also sound better.Chris | |
Accuphase P-7100 vs Pass Labs X350.5 Hmm, that is a bit strange indeed...Chris | |
Loudspeaker 'Back EMF' Amfibius, you should address this question to Kijanki, because he is the expert in this field. The current flow through a transistor is related to the current between base and emitter. This way I don't see why a negative voltage generated by back ... | |
Help Design & Build a Cabinet - KNOW ANYONE? Are the Energy Veritas speakers that good? I mean do they even better Dunlavy SC-V's and Wilson Alexandria's? Wow, I didnt know that...Chris | |
power cord for electrostatic speaker Roy, each opinion is important for me. Chris | |
power cord for electrostatic speaker How can you explain the effect of power cord on the sound of electrostatic speakers? Power requirement of electrostatic speakers is almost zero.Chris | |
Silky and soft highs: product of coloration? Reb, so you are suggesting the power amplifier is the least important component within an audio system? It might be the least important, but it's signature with regard to the final sound is not to be underestimated! If you are saying the power amp... | |
Maybe too detailed Is it a psycho-acoustics thing that a revealing system SHOULD be edgy sounding? I think it should be both revealing AND warm/organic sounding like in real life. This combination could only be had by using some "musical" sounding electronics, mainl... | |
Silky and soft highs: product of coloration? Once more, although instruments can sound bright and harsh at close range, they have in real life "body" and "bloom", that is what you can only hear when music is reproduced using the best (and unfortunately also most expensive) electronics.Chris | |
Does Shunyata Hydra sound best with just one unit I have the following experience with the Original Hydra. When I plug the power amplifier into the Hydra there is a very black and silent background. Music seems to emanate from this dead silent background, which gives a weird experience. I don't l... | |
Silky and soft highs: product of coloration? Dave, with "soft" I don't mean low level audibility but "not scratchy or edgy". Silky is about grainless and smooth sound.Nil, I know violins can sound aggressive in real life, but there is always this "energy" and bloom even with aggressive playi... |
