| Amp Specs esp. DampFactor : Citation, Adcom, etc. I am sure that in future, the set of measurments will predict fully amplifier behaivor.Today, however, many measurments are meaningless or obtained by using dubious techniques design to improve measurments results and not sound.Today, there are ve... | |
| Can you get good sound bridging 2 Classe CA-200s Hi, I agree with Ngjockey that bridging will mostly double your voltage whereas you may (MAY) need higher current.However,from your description it seems that its the raise in temperature trigger the fuse failure. I would check your power condition... | |
| Class D vs Class A Education "- I will get A; unless, perhaps, it's Rowland. "I am offended. What's wrong with Mark Levinson flagship class D amps (No 53) ?I also heard the rumor that Smith & Wesson are coming with "ecologically sound" solution;--) | |
| Negative Feedback a deal killer? Hello Kijanki,To talk, as you did above, about Jeff Rowland (switching) power supplies and not to mention that he is first in the high fidelity audio world (to the best of my knowledge) who produced probably the most technologically advanced power... | |
| Best Amplification for B&W 802D Its very difficult situation, indeed. I am afraid that buying multichannel amplifier not at the level of your 802D will be waste of your money only.I own 802D but I never use surround system for the reasons somebody else stated (sonically better i... | |
| Negative Feedback a deal killer? Aljordan,In my post I expressed NO JUDGMENT of the sound of H2O and other amplifiers which use B&O ICE Module whatsoever. I knew in moment I will do it people like you will attack me and I like to be attacked exactly the same as next guy. If y... | |
| Negative Feedback a deal killer? Hello Athmaspere,I have received reply from John Ulrick of Spectron - their chief designer. I sent him your first post as well:=================================="The above comments are only relative to analog circuits. ItÂ’s true that negative feed... | |
| Negative Feedback a deal killer? Hello H20Audio,I have received reply from John Ulrick of Spectron - their chief designer:============================================Issue #1, stable driving a 0.1 ohm load. We can prove a Spectron amp will drive a 0.1 ohm load by providing lab da... | |
| Negative Feedback a deal killer? Hello Unsound,You wrote:"As I understand it great deals of negative feedback are often used in Class D amplifiers. One poster has already commented that since it is done at much greater speeds, the lag is inconsequential " - which I understood tha... | |
| Negative Feedback a deal killer? Hello Unsound,I think that H2Oaudio has the full right to participate as a "private user". The reason is that he is not a designer but a person who buys mass production B&W Icepower module and installs them in his chassis (I bet makes some mod... | |
| Negative Feedback a deal killer? "...Negative feed back is just like anything else. It can help or it can hurt. It depends on implementation and how it is integrated with all other technical aspects of a design. "Absolutely true !!!!!!!!!!!! Still, I wish to add that NF is danger... | |
| Pass Labs XA200.5 Hello Mordante,I don;t know prices in Euro but in USD, BAT VK600SE-M is about $28k, Plinius Reference (stereo) - $18k and Spectron monoblocks with all upgrades about $11k. Not cheap but, IMO, its life long investment with any of these amps. One of... | |
| Pass Labs XA200.5 I love XA200.5. Period ! Along with Plinius Reference, BAT VK500SE-M and mine Spectron - the best musical powerful amps around !!!! | |
| Got Vienna Acoustics Mahler speakers - what amp? A friend of mine has "Music" which is very similar to Mahler but more expensive. They were driven by the pair of Spectron monoblocks with full upgrades and it was a "heaven", particularly if you like sounds of orchestral or symponic music (or hard... | |
| Is this clipping? Psag,If you would read the Simon Thacher of Spectron paper as I suggested above then you would see easy explanation why you can "drive" jazz but not heavy rock EASY: your amplifier's power supply can reach headroom (peak) voltage and current requi... |
