| Looking for great tube integrated for Martin Logan Summit X speakers The only problem you say your getting, is with "T" "C" "S" sounds I have a friends with Summits, both series 1 and 2 "X" None of them experience any sibilance at all, in fact they are all very transparent and delicate in the highs, as are my own M... | |
| Looking for great tube integrated for Martin Logan Summit X speakers "T" "C" "S" are all sibilant sounds, as I said in a link above the hard areas for an with the Summits are 5khz to 20khz (the sibilance area) and again 3.5khz (presence area of the mids). And the Prima Luna has a very odd high frequency boost i... | |
| Merrill Audio ELEMENT 118 on Tour Merrill thanks for the reply, but the perpetual motion comparison is an example of the unreachable, as everything has loses. That’s why I ask once again, does this amp REALLY double it’s wattage for each halving of impedance from 8 to 4 to 2ohms, ... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? Hey, you started the attack, not me. Then this, that I noticed you quickly deleted. You’ve deserved everything I"ve saidclarinetmonster2 03-02-2019 8:56pm EST To quote you:The bad being "switching frequency noise".Now put your money where your mou... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? really! water off a ducks back, if anyone believes in snake oil, voodoo ect such as fuses, mains leads ect ect. Instead of what all good equipment was built using, EE laws, measurements, bench tests ec ect. I rather not have them as as you say "my... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? I've looked at some of your other posts, and my reply is. Tedious maybe to those that have no understanding of it's technology. If you don't have the technical ability to see what the new GaN technology is all about, then it's best if you don't ev... | |

| A Shockingly Straightforward Query an10490413 Bob Carver 350s or the Theta Prometheus. The selected amps will be driving a pair of Martin Logan 11A speakers. "MartinLogan doesn’t publish impedance, phase-angle or frequency response curves for this speaker. However, they do s... | |
| MORE Esoteric problems Here is the 23k hits "archived" forum page 1/3 the way down, that had the thread. " Announcement: Philips SACD1000 announcement"https://web.archive.org/web/20120218130109/http://www.aplhifi.com/phpBB/viewforum.php?f=1&sid=35...But it’s been wi... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? Also, because an amp uses GaN doesn’t necessarily make it better. But one that does will make it better sounding than the "equal" one that doesn't, if both come from the same manufacture using the same topology, save for the output stage (GaN ... | |
| MORE Esoteric problems Alex Peychev discovered the sacd rot and had a forum which was abuzz with owners that had these decoder boards problems, but he's shut it down.Since it's introduction SACD has always had many problems, and if it's not with the lasers it was with t... | |
| Looking for great tube integrated for Martin Logan Summit X speakers As I said before these are the two areas the PL would have trouble with "The hard load points are at:At 5khz to 20khz (a 2 octave spread) may show as distant subdued high frequency.(But the Prima Luna has an odd peak up there, that says to me outp... | |
