| Mixed Brand Pre-Amp Power Amp Pairings that Work Backert Rhumba 1.3 preamp with Pass XA30.8 power amp. | |
| Pass Labs XA30.8 Well, my 30.8 with drive every speaker I’ve tried with it, including some LS-50’s, which are pretty insensitive. I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of this amp. It is especially happy with a Backert Rhumba preamp. | |
| Ideas for an amplifier? I’ve had good luck driving Vandy Treo CT’s with a Belles Aria integrated, which can be found used for $1200-1500 from time to time. Only about 60wpc. | |

| Nuprime Stream-9 Streamer Rpi is just the Raspberry Pi, and I use a 3b, not the current 4 version (runs a bit cooler). The Pi2AES just plugs into the top of the Rpi board, and provides a bunch of outputs (though not USB), such as I2S, AES, Toslink, and Spdif (RCA). I use ... | |
| Large room with low budget for speakers Cornwall IV’s. They work in my 20x37 room, though I only sit about 16 feet away from them. | |
| Nuprime Stream-9 Streamer I’ve found a cheap I2S solution, that being an RPi with a Pi2aes HAT which has an I2s output. I run it into my PS Audio Directstream DAC via Hdmi and the sound is is great! I think it sounds better than Usb personally. I’m using the MoOde opera... |
