| Buchardt S400 Mk II vs Sony SSCS 5 in Bass Sounds to me you have a low power amp problem. I have listen to the 400mrk 2 with my Pass integrated 250 and I could not tell if my Sub was on . The Buchardt have excellent bass. | |
| New Naim Forum Not to be a naysayer, but I wanted to know what was so great about Naim, so I found a good deal on a supernait 3. Im glad there was a return policy. It was just lifeless, nothing special. Thought I could add it to my collection, since it seemed to... | |
| Pass Labs AMP’s- What is the best Pass Amp Sound for You from past 10 years I have an integrated 250, up from a 60. It’s overkill for my 12x14 room, but it sounds wonderful on my Dyn special 40. I also own a Mac 352, Accuphase 380, hegal 390. If I only had to keep one it would be he pass. There is something special about ... | |
| Technical assistance and recommendations needed As said Canton’s are bright. You have a nice system it’s a shame you went with those speakers. I use Dynaudio with my Pass integrated and that combo has a lush meaty midrange. Not one iota of harness. As suggested try some cardas cabling, or if yo... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Finally removed my Accuphase from the rack and installed my Pass int 250. I have not use the Pass in over 6 months,and forgot how is sounded. As excellent as the Accuphase is, it cant do what the Pass does. Of course the Pass has a lot more power ... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Now that I have had ample time on my Accuphase 380 connected to my LS50 metas, I must say, if I have purchased this amp a while back this could have been end game for me. I know some has said that Accuphase can sound soft in the bass, Well my ches... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like Same with Accuphase, although now I see a few reviews on the lower end line. I do not have personal experience with Luxman and step down transformers, I have read that there are no issue with that setup. Might affect resale if you decide to sale... | |
| For an integrated Mcintosh MA-352 amp, CHOICE OF TUBES Yoby, i only changed the main fuse. To be honest I was not aware there were more fuses in the 352. | |
| Mt First McIntosh I’m 68 and got for my first mac. A mac 352 hybrid. I have 3 other amps and they are very good, but there is something about this mac that makes it hard for me to take. It our of my rotation. I sometimes forget how good it sounds until I change it ... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Swede, believe it or not my 380 is surprisingly very dynamic. I have only been playing it 2 days and it went through a few changes. At first listen the bass was so strong one of my speakers popped. The next day, after a few hours, the bass was so ... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Funny, I have been at this hobby since I was 12 and I’m 68 now. Younger I loved the upfront treble sound. Now that I have been at this for awhile I enjoy the warm laid back sound. This Accuphase 380 seems to be dead center of warm and upfront pres... | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Bluorion, I have never heard a Luxman. It was on my list to purchase one, I have no doubt that it is a great sounding amp. | |
| Finally added Accuphase to my collection Swede, it has been awhile since I have listen to my Pass. I have purchased my other 3 amps this year, so I have been putting time on them. Once I am done listening to my Accuphase, my Pass is next up in my rotation. From memory the Pass sound bigg... | |
| Good old days rvpiano, I can relate. When you read reviews, a good sound system is supposed to have a wide soundstage, depth, layering, etc. So when we listen to our own systems we tend to listen for those things, cause we get programmed to do so. However, we d... | |
| For an integrated Mcintosh MA-352 amp, CHOICE OF TUBES I also own and Mac 352 and I find that the stock tubes sound best in my setup. I tried mullards{new stock} and found they did not sound as good to my ears as shock. There was more and stronger bass, but sounded congested compared to stock. It coul... |
