| Class D Amplification Announcement I think high-power Class A is environmentally irresponsible. Well I guess you can look at that both ways, I think a case can be made that very low inefficient speakers are environmentally irresponsible. Happy imaging!😎 Mike | |
| Need suggestions on efficient book shelf speakers for a Pass Labs XA3.5 @puffbojie, Try a pair of JBL 4429 speakers! 😎 Mike https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649864269-jbl-4429/ | |
| Basic question about power/watts Basic question about power/watts To answer the OPs question I think it has to do with the first watt of the amplifier. FWIW: All amplifiers that run near impedances below an 8Ohm load will produce higher heat and distortion. See article below: ... | |
| recommendations for buying used balanced integrated or power amp 2k range? @oldrooney, You're welcome! Mike | |
| Tekton haters and bashers you just got a new target! Monitor Audio has been around for well over 50 years, Tekton has not. Monitor Audio designs its own drivers, Tekton does not. Monitor Audio has a group of designers and engineers, Tekton does not. Monitor Audio is a large corporation with $$$ f... | |
| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? @johnk wrote: I prefer high efficiency but I don’t undersize my systems so I get bass into the 20-30hz range on most systems. I find higher eff designs to have a more realistic sound quality if done right. But many are too compromised in size. B... | |

| Hyperacusis. Looking for recommendations I am not sure how horns and other ultra efficient designs factor into things?? At 50-60dB one could have super inefficient speakers at 80dB/W/m and use a 1W amp and easily power them. Super inefficient speakers do not play well with milliwatts... | |
| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? @stereo5, See chart below: Mike Sensitivity in dB = 112 + 10 log (efficiency) Efficiency = 10(Sensitivity in dB – 112)/10 ... | |
| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? Everything else being equal, I will take a high efficiency speaker any day over a low-efficiency one. I agree 100%! Mike | |
| recommendations for buying used balanced integrated or power amp 2k range? trying to move to a place where all my components are balanced Try to make sure all balanced components are AES48 compliant.

| Does a DAC need a large/strong power supply? Who are we trying to please here, some measuring bot or ourselves? I measure twice then listen! 😁 LOL Mike | |
| Does a DAC need a large/strong power supply? I can not see how a properly designed well implemented power supply would not be good for a DAC or any audio components. However, maybe not ''overkill'' power supply but, a properly designed one with quality parts. Just my $0.02 😎 Mike | |
