| Thinking of replacing my Bat spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please Since you already like the Nuforce. I would recommend trying the Nuforce/Nuprime Reference 20 mono amps, which are a huge step up in refinement from their other designs, yet still run cool. Also Bob Smith their repair person does mods on these tha... | |
| Axpona Shout Outs The Von Schweikert/ VAC room was clearly best. It was all there - micro and marcodynamics, naturalness, nuance, aliveness and beauty to the sound. I watched them set up as they struggled with a nearly square room, and they were able to get great i... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! I have had Nuforce Reference 9 V2, the V3Se and Now Nuforce/Nuprime Reference 20 monos. They have bested in my opinion all Class A and A/B designs that I have heard with high end Pass Labs coming closest to reflecting the beauty of music. Also Nuf... | |
| AXPONA 2017 Protocol The Endeavors you are looking at are definelity worth the audition time and may be best of your bunch and a listen to the newest Von Schweirkert' s even though out of price limit can give a reference to what is possible. I would narrow down to thr... | |
| Best $500 System? I sent my friend thsi thread and she pulled the trigger and is very happy, thanks for the help - here is what she said. Thanks Joe! I read all the comments and ended up finding a great buy on self-powered speakers by Kliptsch. I used them in ... | |

| Best $500 System? The DVD player I have has HDMI and then component out. I like Nuforce, have their reference 20 mono amps myself in the big rig | |
| Best $500 System? I think she likes active listening as well as dancing around to tunes | |
| Best $500 System? Yes I have an Oppo 105 and understand. I found an old Blue Ray Player that I am not using (replaced it with the Oppo) hooked it up to my computer speakers which have a volume control, control both left right - and it plays fine except that the spe... | |
| Best $500 System? Thank you all for you good ideas - I know that the budget is very low, but feel we can do better than a boom box. I checked out the Classik and it looks like a good option if I can find used and a very generous offer on the speakers, polk432 - tha... | |
| Old Amp vs. New Amp Even 4 year old amps have often become very much a good value - why go back 20 years? And Class D's such as Nuprime are ready for prime time | |
| Is It Safe to Warm Up Power Amps Without Speakers Attached Some class D amps will go into oscillation without load | |
| High End Amp Price Collapse musings Unless you have personally heard the newest Nuforce/Nuprime amps, such as Reference 20 mono amps which come at Class D in a different, proprietary way not using the modules that others use, you have not heard what Class D type amps can currently o... | |
| Your choice of the most "inert" cabinets ? Von Schweikert cabinets in their new lines are so silent and non-reactive you can see the precision of drum strikes with no blurring on an occiliscope | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take I use an Ayon CD5s which in additon to transport and DAC has a great built in pre with analogue volume control - This works better than adding a different pre |
