| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. Hi Roger, thanks for the great offer. I would like to know what are all the measurable variables does one consider when manufacturing an amplifier.I am guessing this list is most exhaustive then the spec sheet typically posted?. If not correct me.... | |
| Legacy Aeris speaker placement , two wall choice dilemma I attempted to draw the room so that I can better convey the problem.https://ibb.co/e4k1hAThe top left portion of the room i.e the walls left and top is where I can I place the speakers. Any help or comments is appreciated. | |
| How does ICEpower 1200AS2 compares to Hypex NC500 implementation? @jackd One NC500 only can drive one speaker. One 1200AS2 can drive two speakers, I do not think anyone is making modules with one 1200AS1. Thanks for your response. Yes I have Benchmark AHB2. This will be for center channel, I am hoping to get a s... | |
| How does ICEpower 1200AS2 compares to Hypex NC500 implementation? @jackd Value wise ICEpower 1200AS2 wins, what would be the flavor difference that can be characterized. Tech specs looks better on NC500 for an untrained person like me. | |
| Speaker recommendation for Home Theater What is your room size?. For movies only I would think $15k is quite a large budget, at-last for me. Center channel is quite important, a large one will go a long way and good sub too. One does not need full range speakers for movies if I am not m... | |
| help decide what av receiver under $1k to choose @allinone1989 to get any advice you need specific feature you want like if you want 4k, latest HDMI and what decoding feature do you need, how many speakers need to be powered and what power amplifier output you are looking for, phono stage, lates... | |
| Suggestions for Class D amplifiers with Marantz AV7704 and B&W cdm9nt combo for HT. @caphill Class D amps are also analog if I am not mistaken. @lightfighter2018 have you considered Hypex NC500 based amps like Nord or Apollon?. | |
| ETI Research Cable Pods any one recommend this? @terry9 thanks | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker If I understand correctly Legacy Wavelet when used with Aeris at build time is configured to correct/adjust for the small errors among how different drivers work and also corrects for room also in the domain of time. I do like the idea of using ds... | |
| Legacy Aeris owners which amp do you use and why? @oregonpapa thanks got myself LM 508ia tube amp and Benchmark AHB2. | |
| Tube / SS amp that handles 4ohm loads well and delivers lively texture / palpability @atmasphere what are your speakers the specs you posted sound great?. | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker @ramtubes Agree with you that great specs on a single tone at some frequency or even frequency sweep tests does not really come close to complexity of music. But at this point that is all I have. Good point about complexity yes it is more complex... | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker @georgehifi With Legacy Aeris what you are suggesting is not possible. | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker @ramtubes, Impedance minimum for top section of Aeris is only 3.8 Ohm (this information is from the source). So it seems AHB2 is fine with that.Which amplifier would you think can be a better option than Benchmark AHB2 given that I have gotten mys... | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker All issues with AHB2 are settled! as far as I am concerned. Let us not continue this thread and discuss things not relevant to technical issues of AHB2. I will report back if I try them in bridged mode and feel like it. Thanks everyone. |
