I'd like to hear any technical reasons you have for this statement, if the output/input impedance is fin... | |

Yes but new CD transports are also coming back, EG: as Cambridge Audio’s CXC among others. Just try to by a used old flagship transport these days, they cost twice as much as they did 1 ... | |

All the great amps that have "reputation" for driving impedance’s down to 2ohm or less comfortably with great current ability, have been ... | |

| Amp for Martin Logan Motion 60XT Yes, that’s why you need to study "independent tests" closer like Stereophile’s into 2ohm loading, and if they don’t have it you know why, they can’t handle it, complain or blow fuses. Class-D’s do well doubling wattage from 8ohm to 4ohm. But the... |
