Amps I Like I am struck by the hilarity of trying to write a completely positive thread, and still having people come in to spoil the fun. I mean, I can’t write about amps I like. I can’t say "I heard class D amps and I liked them, pretty cool"What else will ... | |
Amps I Like Hi Miller, I'm afraid you have me confused with an employee of yours. I thought this was a forum to discuss our relationship with audio gear and share our experiences. As such I'm not really obligated to take your criticisms. I'm writing as I woul... | |
Amps I Like Hi Bob!Ayre is a very interesting amp design. The diamond circuit is one I fell in love with and don't really know why, despite a number of serious criticisms of it's technical performance.It falls short of perfection but I really love the sound. ... | |
Just how big is our foot print? I think your threads are interesting.But they do give off a subtle negitive vibe Sir, there is nothing subtle about them. :D | |
Amps I Like Hi Tim!!Sadly I don't really want to treat this as a long term project, more of a one time posting. My ambitions right now are ridding myself of the excess furniture, tools and toys I have which I'm never actually going to use again. Best,Erik | |
Amps I Like I should point out that the Vandersteen, while it sounded great with Vandy speakers, was bandwidth limited. No idea how it would fare full range. | |
MQA - Music Discussion Hi @edcyn If you aren’t using MQA, try switching to the fast rolloff filter. :) Best,Erik | |
Amps I Like Class A: Luxman +++D’Agostino +Ayre +Audio Research integrated +Vandersteen + ( short but man, I wish I could review for a long period! ) Class B: Parasound A21 +++IcePower 250 ASP +++Rogue Integrated+Bryston +Items in a list are in no particular ... | |
You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss Stop looking for congratulations for going Class-D, it’ all too obvious with all the Class-D related post you start looking for positives on it, to make you feel satisfied with what you’ve got. George, Projecting intention on some one without evid... | |
You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss Hi @audiojan - Thanks so much. Can you talk a little about your CJ experience relative to Pass?Also, if anyone has experience with Ayre, D'Agostino or Luxman I'd love to hear about it relative to Pass, because unfortunately a lot of the brands bei... | |
Transformer coupled outputs/inputs in preamplifiers. +1 to the OP, I'm kind of a fan!! :) I like expensive caps, but there's something quite different about transformer coupled inputs/outputs. I don't know how many realize that if you listen to a vintage recording, you are probably listening to the ... | |
You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss @eniac Thanks so much for that detailed, chronological, explanation of what you went through. In particular how you experienced the differences with the 803D2s vs. the Class D amps. That gives me a lot of information. And thanks to everyone else w... | |
Cconfused... @elizabeth - You make a very good point. I sometimes wonder when reviewers develop a clear auditory bias if it's their hearing, or if they have been paid. But for an audiophile who is having a cultural, not a technical, exposure to gear, who is to... | |
Just how big is our foot print? Miller: Youtube!! | |
SIMPLY AMAZING: Coda Technologies 07x Preamplifier OP: Are you a dealer? If so then yeah, you would really dislike anyone who doesn’t share your views, wouldn’t you? Since you’ve thrown down a gauntlet here, I’m going to be more in this thread than I meant to. I do have an interest in Coda gear a... |
