| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load whatever!Like i said "I would back any time the Parasound Halo JC1+’s sound and drive-ability up against ANY Class-D into the loads the likes of the Alexia’s, B&W’s etc etc" And that's what this thread is all about!! | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Parasound JC1+ was measured at 1200 watts into 2 ohms (if it doubled all the way down to 2 ohms then it would put out 2000 watts).....which, by the way is exactly what the NC2000 does (2000 watts)....sorry, Parasound loses. "Dreamer" I would bac... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Title to this threadWhat Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Simple fact is: Class-D cannot drive a 2ohm load and double it's wattage down to that 2ohms, load like a good linear bi-polar amps, end of story! That is why with the many speakers si... | |
| Which R2R DAC UP TO 1K: ORGANIC, FULL-BODIED, DEEP SOUNDSTAGE barrista0611 Cary 303-200 I’m asking myself if it can compete with the newer dedicated R2R dacs I owned own for many years and was very happy with it standard, in the end even modded it with my own stacked AD844 I/V stage, and then it became a ... | |
| Recommendations for electronic crossover. Bridging has nothing except more wattage over leaving the amp as stereo, you've been told now not just by me. | |
| Which R2R DAC UP TO 1K: ORGANIC, FULL-BODIED, DEEP SOUNDSTAGE Here's Lector but it's $$$$$$ https://www.audio-markt.de/market/lector-strumenti-audio-cdp-707-8414737040 | |
| Which R2R DAC UP TO 1K: ORGANIC, FULL-BODIED, DEEP SOUNDSTAGE barrista0611 Yes Michael, your Lector you should have kept, as it had the best R2R chips, 2 x PM1704-K "K" being selected and a cheap easy to get SF-HD65 laser. These PCM1704 and the 1702 were the best and last of the R2R Multibit dacs chips made.... | |
| Lively, fast & open sounding integrated under 3k? As I’ve said I’ve heard the Parasound, and they do not lack in HF to me. Maybe you listened to a dud one. As these are comments made on the highs, from reviews. The sound was anything but mellow with the Spendors’ tweeters firing at ear level, but... | |
| Is there a Solid State amp that can satisfy a SET guy? He may be a bit bit dated but he had 1 resounding suggestion-the Pass Labs Aleph!Has anyone had experience with these? Guess it would be the 3 or 5?Lovely amps but stinking hot, Tone Publications:One word of caution: this amplifier runs HOT! Give... | |
| Lively, fast & open sounding integrated under 3k? Parasound stuff and the Halo have an incredibly clean midrange, they just do not have the high frequency extension that other amps do. I think you may not like the sound of Class-A as that’s what the highs would be running as with the bias they h... | |
| Lively, fast & open sounding integrated under 3k? zuio OP MF sounds unnatural to me. +1 They MF sound, are even more cooler, etched, than the JC1’s in low bias mode.Never like them, definitely a MF house sound (very high gain used?), even their old little A1, A100 so called "Class-A’s" had the s... | |
| Lively, fast & open sounding integrated under 3k? Yes, when JC1 is switched into high bias mode, it becomes very warm.Not to me they become invisible like the speakers have left the room, and the music just washes over you in a 3D sound stage, that you swear you can get up and walk into. And I... | |
| Recommendations for electronic crossover. Not in the least, still fact with Class-D's today. Sorry, Not in the least, still fact with bridged today. In general Bridged AmpsPros=More watts.Cons=Worse damping factorHigher output impedance (has relevance to damping factor)Lower stabi... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load This is the OP again...it sounds like I am hearing Class D might not be the best for tough, low impedance load speakers.If that is indeed the case, why is this and what has to change in Class D design to achieve it? The Mosfet output transistors ... |
