| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker They promote bridging so they can sell you two amplifiers obviously. geek101 OP seeing I gave many other cons and hardly any pros, glad someone else said this, I held off that one, good one Roger now I don’t have to bring it up.Cheers George | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? With the help of some of the part no. if the laser is the same as in the the link to the loader. It's the same dvd unit that’s used in this cheap budget home theater setup. nothing to write home about.Service manual.https://www.google.com.au/url?s... | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? Could be, "if" the lasers are the same, there's many instances that use the same mech with different lasers.Why doesn't NuPrime say something and acknowledge, I'm sure they're aware of this thread, what's the big secrete? I hope not like others b... | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker geek101 OP Legacy Aeris is spec’d for 500w. Probably peak also.Here’s your spl at 3mts in your room for a stereo AHB2 seeing a 4ohm load (210w) into your 94dB effcient speakers.110dB spl! say good-by to your hearing.And "if" they were 8ohm 94dB ... | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? Impossible?? all you can see is the tray and clamper. Cheers George | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker geek101 OP BTW geek101 OP your Legacy Aeris I just noticed are 94db!! why do you need more than one AHB2, one is plenty and will do the 4ohm load on it’s ear, and not have any disadvantages of it bridged.A bridged one beside all the cons I mentio... | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker Are you speculating, or do you have actual experience with the amp in different configurations? If you have a technical background and understand what happens when you bridge an amp, you wouldn’t be asking this question.Cheers George | |
| Acuhorn 125 with Leben 15w amp richdirector The Leben is a beautiful sounding piece. This to me contradicts what I see in bench tests, I wouldn't let an amp out that looked like this on final production tests. High frequency accentuation that starts at around 6khz and cli... | |
| How good is the McIntosh MC-2300 vs modern SS amplifiers? How about an OTL that can drive a wide variety of speakers properly? No such thing, unless you stick an autoformer band-aid on it for the hard to drive ones. Then you ruined the whole advantage of the OTL design and what it can do. Your better of... | |
| How good is the McIntosh MC-2300 vs modern SS amplifiers? If the right amp has to be found for just some one speaker, I would say that is a bad amplifier waiting to find a home. So what your saying is an amp that can drive the Wilson Alexia’s known impedance of down to 0.9ohm is a bad amp????? No you’ve... | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker I’ve tried geek101 with links to pro and cons and every which way, the site and manual, and post you’ve presented are just too ambiguous. Purchase another one I hope for your sake two bridged amps can do it as good as just one bigger non bridged ... | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? Aren’t all Phillips units out of production? If that's the case and there's no subs, I wouldn't go near them.Cheers George | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker kijanki3, we still don’t get the full Bridged spec picture.There are no specs accompanying these copy/pasted excerpts you put up, again misleading, if you are referring it back to the other figures on the other page that geek101 put up.Lets see bo... | |
| Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret? This we already knew that it uses a SAA7824HL controller chip, but it’s what the laser is for the 8 and 9 that needs to be told, so we can see if it’s readily available, and for a reasonable price, otherwise without knowing this i know I wouldn’t ... | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker geek101 OP Any thoughts?. Yes! believe me? it’s in the wording, you need to read like a tech to find the tricks, as this is very misleading to the novices, as the last two distortion figures are NOT I repeat NOT in bridged mode, but measured one... |
