I had recabled AKG K701s powered by a Little Dot MKV, fed my an audio mirror D2 DAC.Ya, they sounded good I suppose... a little harsh on the highs and lacking in bass though.Now, once ... | |
| Strange ground loop...? Hmm... interesting. Well, the cord is already going back... but that's good to know for the future.Any chance the static distortion did speaker / amp damage? Everything sounds fine, but I would like to know if such distortion is the same as amplif... | |

| Need recommendation for power amp under $250 How does Dynaco measure up? There is a 200wpc recently listed on here for under $200...Also, anyone heard of Sonance? | |
| Need recommendation for power amp under $250 Thanks for the recommendations.Just to make sure I cover my bases, how do Carver, B&K, Adcom, Rotel, and NAD stack up? Is there a clearly higher quality make, or are they all 'vanilla'? It looks like I could pick up any one of those for under ... | |
| Onyx A120 - thoughts? Ya I saw their retired model list.I'm wondering if anyone can compare an A120 to something a little more well-known like Arcam or Rotel. | |
| Onyx A120 - thoughts? Nobody, huh? | |
