| Amps I Like @Dutchydog Was that to me?? | |
| Other Good High End Audio Forums I spent time at ASR, they know tech a great deal. I'm afraid that their approach to science and audio didn't make sense to me. | |
| Amps I Like Dammit, @photon46 - You just said Beetlejuice for the third time! | |
| Amps I Like Has anyone ever heard a class D amp that did not sound thin, digital and without soul? I answer your question in my original posting. There was nothing that wrong with the Class D amps I listened to. As I've written, they sounded exactly like the... | |
| Amps I Like Interesting. It sounds like you prefer modern ARC to historical ARC, and that you think ARC house sound (if I can call it that) has changed for the better over a number of years but to your ears is not (at least the integrated amp) quite on pa... | |
| Amps I Like Hi @kren0006I wouldn’t call the ARC the equal of the Ayre. I would call the ARC a very good integrated, one I could probably live with very happily. I won’t wax effusively on it because my time with it was short. I would call the ARC a really gre... | |
| Do we really need anything greater than 24/96? Opinions? I am a broken record on this, but:. Not anymore. About 10 years ago DACs got MUCH better at playing Redbook. The need for hi rez vanished.Try listening to Redbook on a vintage DAC, vs a lot of modern units. | |
| How to A/B Test Power Cables & Interconnects? First, to me, nothing is as valuable as the buyer’s pleasure. Whether pleasure of ownership, pleasure of listening, or pleasure of DIY, it’s your money, so do what you want to with it. Kids jerks? Spend their college fund. No problem from me.But I... | |
| Just how big is our foot print? @jaybe I thought so too, but then some one started pulling out posts of mine from 2016. I have a following! I have historians making notes. Hell, I think someone is about to publish an unauthorized biography of me here. :DErik | |
| Amps I Like Hey @atmasphere That would make sense, but I've heard other amps which make the same claim, at equal or greater prices and for whatever reason I do not like them. Maybe I should spend a couple of years listening to a variety of Class A/Zero feedba... | |
| Amps I Like Hi Select!I do indeed like class D.I haven’t heard that many different kits. Just old ICEpower and Hypex nCore. But notice, I listed the ICEpower 250ASP (now 10 years old or more) as B .... the equal of a number of linear amps I’ve been able to li... | |
| Amps I Like Though to be fair, while I reserve the right to disagree, I also can see how I may have disagreed in less than kind or thoughtful manners when fan boys/fan girls assembled. I'll be more thoughtful. | |
| Need Help! My Class A Amp Is Running Very Hot This is a funny amp, @pbnaudioLook at the power rating, and look at the idle/max wattage. Tell me what they say to you. :) | |
| Need Help! My Class A Amp Is Running Very Hot You can check this with an inexpensive watt meter:https://amzn.to/2nhr6IvSet it to watts and compare to your spec. And yeah, class A gets very hot. | |
| Amps I Like And perhaps karma.. Now tell me.. REALLY ... you have never pissed in someones little quiet spot of enjoyment here??? I'm sorry, @elizabeth, but you are mistaking divine retribution which I may have gently handed out in pretty little gift bags ... |
