Looking for a new preamp
adiorio OP  In terms of going direct George. I have a Cary CDP 1 CD player that can drive an amp directly. I tried that awhile back and although dynamic, I felt it lost some body. Perhaps it was cables/power cord. Yes, going direct will be the ... 
Looking for a new preamp
Still doing them with my little Indonesian helper Taka, over 900 now world wide one going to New Caledonia today, Friday one went to Guam!! of all places. You'll have to get a discount, being a return customer, make sure you remind me when it's ti... 
Looking for a new preamp
adiorio OP Look at the Schiit Freya + $899, as you have 3 different flavours in one, passive, tube, or solid state. It's got everything, many inputs/output, remote, xlr, se, inputs and outputs, 128-Step Relay switched volume almost as good as g... 
Tube Amps With Good Bass Qualities
jwlaff If you’ve still got the Klipsch Heresy’s, anything good sounding will do, as almost rubbing two sticks together will drive them. https://community.klipsch.com/uploads/monthly_02_2016/post-453-0-91780000-1456333330.jpg If your set on tubes, ... 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
I did unfollow, but I got this one before. definitely gone now.Look at complimentary BJT’s with massive power supplies that I’ve been suggesting for these loads, then look at your Class-D Mosfets usually not complementary as the P channel stinks, ... 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
Wake up and smell the roses. This is it for me, as this thread has just become a hand full of manufactures/retailers trying to make some $$ from their new ventures into Class-D Just look at any of the many Class-D test in Stereophile, when they te... 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
Put the shields up Scotty, we’re being attacked save the Enterprise at all costs.On these OP’s speakers with the minuscule 25w ML2 monoblocks will do bass and everything better to a given level, than any Class-D can, and that’s because of the curr... 
New Tortuga passive/active tube pre looks like a winner
Curious, what about it do you believe to be "innovative?" +1 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
George, the quote above suggests that you do not understand how a voltage source works Yes you use this old chestnut everytime as it suits you to bring it out every time your OTL’s are brought into question doing the same thing. So it’s simple fo... 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
what’s wrong with efficient easy to drive horns? If you need to ask that, you should delve into the measurements of both a bit  To have that efficiency and easy load ability. Measurement tests show they are always compromised when compared to a h... 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
This statement is false. The ability to double power as load impedance is halved has nothing to do with how well the amp will play bass Of course it does when it demands current into low impedance to do it, get over it.! Ralph you’re so transpare... 
4 ohm (or 6) Bookshelf speakers. Pass Labs 30.8
mplstereo I would worry too much as the Pass 30.8 gives more that you think, and it actually increases it wattage for each halving of impedance as well, so can do half decent current into low impedances.This is the 30.5 which I take is similar ju... 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
dsper OP I emailed, to both Nord and Appollon, the Stereophile measurements for the Thiel CS5’s and both suppliers said that their amps would drive them. (Without seeing any independent tests)Of course they did, they want a sale. No one disputes... 
What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load
Sorry but what you get is a good PA amp.Hypex suck in, they purposely put things backwards to confuse at glance. Look again, and that’s peak watts and amps, also the wattage go backwards as the impedance goes down, it gets severly current starved....
