I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong Look at what you posted, you started the personal slurs again Iric with your post, not me. " I was really worried that Goerge would have gotten too old and tired not to raise the same tired and irrelevant tropes"So just suck it up sunshine without... | |
Synergestic Black Fuse vs Audio Magic BeesWax ‘Fuses matter’ Typical, 3 posts all on fuses, another SR fuser recruitee. | |
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong Erik instead of burying your head in the sand about the problems that Class-D has had since it’s inception, with switching frequencies+filters, embrace instead the new GaN technology, that when used correctly as Technics has done with the SE-R1 ca... | |
martin logan speakers When I bought my ML Impression 11As, I paired them with a McIntosh Mc452 amp. For me, the combination was a bit too warm. Great for some genres of music, not so great for others, particularly classical where I prefer some sparkle and crispness to... | |
What are the advantages to a Class A amp & what are the trade offs? George, Krell never made a mono amp with the designation KSA. Yes KSA50, KSA100 and KMA100 were all Class-A using chimney heatsinks I got a letter wrong for the mono's, still talking about the same amps with chimney fan cooled heatsinks as I said... | |
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong same tired and irrelevant tropes Only in your own mind Erik, as you continue to start Class-D posts to get others validate your Class-D views and purchases because you can't yourself. | |
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong This example suggests that it is far better to form opinion after listening to particular amp than making blank statements about whole class D. Measurements don’t lie, there is considerable phase shifts down to 5khz if the output filter is set to... | |
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong my old class D amp had 60kHz bandwidth Yeah and it probably looked like this on a 1khz square wavehttps://cdn.head-fi.org/a/2780785.jpgIt all about how much switching noise is let through without causing phase shifts down into the audible range.A... | |
Will a pair of Manley tube amps be a good match for Martin Logan ESL 11A's? The Logans are rated at 4 ohms. They might be conservitally be rated at 4ohm, but they do dip to 1ohm in the highs, with "may" see a dulling/recessing of the highs with many tube amps, unless like the Roger Modjeski RM200 Ram Tube amps, that hav... | |
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong That’s true, but it might open another bag of worms. In current designs filter leaves about 1% of switching noise on the speaker cable. As you say "it might"You’ll just have to look at what Technics did on the SE-R1, no complaints about it becomi... | |
Do I go from a Primaluna HP Integrated to Schiit Freya+ and a pair of Aegir Amps? Study the link I gave and follow it to the letter don’t forget to remove the jumper links on the speakers, and double check everything before turning on. If you have two amps the same, and your speakers like you have that have mid/high speaker ter... | |
Do I go from a Primaluna HP Integrated to Schiit Freya+ and a pair of Aegir Amps? eag618 OP Schiit "Freya+" tube pre amp and pair of Class A Schiit "Aegir" amps...well as they say, better than Class A! Go vertical bi-amping with the Freya into both Aegir amps and into the Klipsch Forte 3 speakers. This setup will make the... | |
what is more important ? I believe the weakest link in my system is the speakers which are causing me issues with inconsistencies whenever I play them i.e. they sound good one day and not so great the next. That can't be the speakers, unless your moving them around, or... | |
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong I believe after a trusted friends opinion on how the Technics SE-R1 sounded, that you may as well stay with what's used now with the old Mosfet technology and 600k switching speed, if the GaN's higher switching speed transistors are used WITHOUT u... | |
Jay's Audio CDT2-MK2 12:10amThanks George.By the way, I bought the Holo Spring 2 DAC, KTE version. I could not be happier with this DAC. It is just musical. No need to elaborate.John Do you like the NOS mode the best like I did?Cheers George |
