new GAN amplifier Slumming it abraxalito?, did you got bored over at the other place?Cheers George | |
Integrated amp for Thiel 3.7's How about the Coda CSiB integrated: This should work nicely, even though they don’t give the 2ohm wattage figure, 20 x bi-polars per channel, if the power supplies up to it it should give it a higher wattage figure into 2ohms, than it does into 4... | |
remastered EMI pink floyd There are no "great" CD versions of DSOTM the only good ones are vinyl 1993 Capitol and a 2011 quad mix Blu-ray one all the rest are compressed. I've got at least 6 of them, and don't enjoy any like the vinyl I used to have http://dr.loudness-wa... | |
Integrated amp for Thiel 3.7's Hi @georgehifi : I have barely seen any amps mention the power rating at 2 Ohms. Yes many Mosfets and Class-D can double from 8ohm to 4ohm, but **** themselves severely into 2ohms, and either can’t increase at all from the 4ohm figure or actually... | |
new GAN amplifier arty_vandelay Yes, if the Wilson Alexia didn’t have a negative phase shift of -45’ degree in the bass causing an EPDR of 0.9ohm, then it would be an easier load for the amp to drive, but still it would be 1.8ohm and still needing an amp with go... | |
new GAN amplifier Sorry, just a correction there @arty_vandelay it’s EPDR (Equivalent Peak Dissipation Resistance.) for those who want to know the complete title.Here is a snippet from the measuring labs used by HiFi News and Record Review, also used I believe Abso... | |
new GAN amplifier Your the best mate!!! (in your own mind) "No more responses to anymore ** you say."Now go back to the Misc Forum spruiking about voodoo snake oil along with your SR "fuser" mates geoffkait, uberwaltz, oregonpapa ect ect, or how OLT tubes can drive... | |
new GAN amplifier I’m not the one idolizing a reviewer No but you rubbished him, and that in many eyes makes you a total loser. JA of Stereophile gives more to the audio industry in his little bench testing finger that you ever could. Like I said if I’m parroting,... | |
Integrated amp for Thiel 3.7's I always check if power doubles, or is close, every time the impedance doubles. "correction wattage close to doubles if impedance halves"Yes and if they don’t mention it in the specs, usually it can’t do it.Cheers George | |
new GAN amplifier 🤦♂️ There you go, big noting yourself again, putting **** on John Atkinson (Stereophile) is a real good way to get reco. Go back to shilling that OTL’s can drive Alexia’s, that made more sense. | |
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load My question is why, knowing all the above, you even bothered to make it? It features a custom designed, class-A, input stage Why even mention it on a class-D amp like it’s "special" (it features!!), as all amps have "class-a inputs" is what I ref... | |
Integrated amp for Thiel 3.7's pgastone OP Don’t listen to those just saying get this or that, because "it’s stable into 2ohms".There's more to it, there no use just saying an amp that stable at 2ohms will do, as a old 80’s NAD3020 Integrated is stable at 2ohms, and it’s got no... | |
new GAN amplifier The above was explained ad nauseam No it wan’t explained why a screen shot of a 10khz square wave couldn’t be shown direct from the Purifi 1ET400A speaker terminals, as the speakers see it, as Stereophile shows a few years ago here https://ibb.co... | |
Time to buy a class D amp? I went from a Parasound A21 to Class D, no difference in sound. Something seriously wrong there. | |
Mark Levinson integrated powerhouse with all the bling ML is one of those brands which, after I heard it, I could understand why everyone talks about how good it measures. Whatever is meant by that.But I will follow up and say most ML amps are big, effortless sounding, with massive sound stage, ex... |
