cerberus79A few months ago I purchased a used pair of speakers from another Agon member. To my surprise all the fuses were Orange fuses.I listened to them and then to satisfy my curiosity I replaced them with ordinary buss fuses and could not hear... 
Optical ST output
AT&T ST Optical at each end was the best way as Wadia/Teac/ML used to do as a very expensive option, especially when used with a dab of crystal clear optical "Indexing Matching Fluid" on each end to take up any minute air gaps. way out in fron...

I’m not sure there are many who want a straight wire with gain. I’m positive there are, but you don’t do it by making amps nonlinear or with selective distortions in them. You do it with equalizers if needed or change whatever is that you don’t li...

Fuse wire is just that, NONE of these "snake oil" fuse companies have expressly said that they are manufacturing their own fuse wire!Oh! and btw almost forgot! A fuse:1: two end caps2: short piece of fuse wire connecting the two end caps through a...

Glad someone around here is stand on solid ground.And many with that negativity, are just doing that so they can shill for their own commercial interests.And yes nothing wrong with the "a straighwire with gain" adage, as it implies no colouration,...

I believe the best performance and SQ will be using a linear power supply That’s exactly what I did in the 2nd system with my Hypex NC500 monoblocks (same as BelCanto Reference-600 monoblocks). Two things I did that took them to another level, I ...

audioman58 Coda also uses 40 Bipolors on the outputs day Huge 3kva potted transformer Great output stage setup for the bases to me the best of linear high bias SS amp/s. Gryphon, Dan Ago, Krell, John Curl etc etc all still go this way, and still ...

Perhaps it is for other designers but Alberto knows more about GaN’s than others. Well for those that know it’s not good to put all that wattage, current, signal etc etc through those tiny touch contact tube pins, they will be a problem after a wh...

Don’t think I ever said it had 1.5mhz switching speed??, just it’s big bro the SE-R1, I seriously hope it does too. As 1.5mhz switching speed is far better than 600khz, as then there’s no 70 degrees phase shift (https://ibb.co/2thS6y2) then from 1...

Anybody else waiting for GaN and Purify to have a baby?
jjss49 Here’s something interesting, your MiniGaN 5 has the "EAS eGaNAMP2016 Gallium Nitride Class-D Amplifier Module" in it. https://ibb.co/2n5wTKKAnd now they’re bringing the newer "EAS eGaNAMP 2.1 Reference GaN modules" out https://ibb.co/P6WmM...
