USB to DAC questions Hey Gmood, u get to listen to the audio decco yet? | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations Hmm, actually I think they are those models... bummer.Oh well, back on the hunt. | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations Really? It looks like there is a pre-amp out... but I'm not sure if this would bypass the existing amp. I was assuming since there is a pre-amp out and no amp-in on the back that the bridge between the pre and amp were internal and the one on the ... | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations cool, thanks.My father offered me his old Crown amps... I think I might go this route.He used them for his Klipsch corner-horns. He sold the speakers and has no need for the amps now. It's a pre-amp and 2 separate amps.Old Crown stuff is pretty go... | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations Anyone have any words about Rotel RA-1062 or Creek 4330MK2? | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations Hmm... well maybe I should go that route... Tough choices. That might give me a better sound for the buck, right?Anyone able to compare the Nad c352 to Rotel ra-1062? | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations What do you guys think about the Rotel Ra-1062 in comparison to a Nad C352?Thanks for all the advice... I'm adding the recommendations to my mental watch list.Eldragon - That's what I was wondering about the 'old amp technology'... is if it is get... | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations Oh, and as for source... I am going to run a usb out of an ibook to a Paradisea + DAC for FLAC playback. Based on what I have read this should sound superb... | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations Wow, lots of info... Thanks everyone for the suggestions...There's definitely tons of options... the market is far from being dominated by one or a few companies.Your right Tobias, that's my plan of action now... just keep my eye out for one of th... | |
USB to DAC questions Ya, good point. Well... this thing is intriguing.The closest dealer that they list to me is like 500 miles away, lol... so testing before I buy is not much of a realistic option... not one that I want to do at least. | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations Hey, thanks Phase... your right about not overthinking it... I think I've been far into the 'overthink' world for a little while now.Ya, I was thinking the Nad sounds nice as it has a 2nd pre-out for an addition of a sub... which I think I will do... | |
USB to DAC questions Oh, you think maybe they just haven't tested all the specs such as s/n ratio yet? Does that happen w/ new equipment sometimes?Ya, agreed about the 30 day trial thing...So, I don't get it... they are not the same company as whoever makes Sonos, right? | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations ya, why risk it I guess... I would rather just go with a used jolida or nad I think.Anyone wanna sell me theirs? :) | |
Need some $500 & under Amp recommendations How important is the advertised S/N ratio of an amp? I mean, I don't know if this is a typically inflated figure or what...Jolida rates some at around 85 (they call it 'noise and hum')... NADs say they are above 100... | |
USB to DAC questions Oh, ok I see.Another thing that worries me a little is that they are very vague with their product description, whereas their other amps they list s/n ratio, etc...Did you find someplace with a more detailed description? |
