Primaluna amp with Sonus Faber?
I know many people look at frequency response as the end all be all of audio Tests/measurements should be looked at, as well as listened to, that's how amps are built and designed.  Here in Australia we had a PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium HP o... 
Primaluna amp with Sonus Faber?
runninkyle17 OP1 posts@georgehifi That is interesting. Can you explain in a in a little more detail. Does the primaluna amp have issues with high impendance loads? In a way this one does into high impedance also, as this graph shows it has a shar... 
Primaluna amp with Sonus Faber?
The SF’s have a bit of a nasty load around 124hz which is the bass power region, which is 4-5ohms and combined with -38 degrees of -phase shift as well. This "could" look as low as 2-3ohms to the amp. I think to be safe and to get the very best fr... 
Delta Sigma DACs
DSD has inherently a huge amount of high frequency noise which must be removed and contains no added audible benefit. Since PCM is what all studios use it is undoubtedly the closest and best distribution format to remain faithful to the product c... 
I have the speakers I grew up with in the 50's 60's.
i can not seem to open the picture from italian ebay That's because it ended in 2014.Cheers George  
Delta Sigma DACs
Can a Delta-Sigma DAC translate both DSD and PCM streams to analog? Yes it can do both, it’s needed for DSD, but if PCM is your priorty (that’s Redbook 16/44, 24/96, or DXD), then your better off for best sound quality with a "well implemented" R...

You didn’t look too hard Janet???Could be worth some bucks, judging by the 2nd last last link.http://www.audioheritage.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?19058-Audio-Video-Receiver-for-Lansing-375-spe...http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/lan... 
Mark Levinson 38s Question Real or Fake?
From what I’ve been able to find, it’s possible the output opamps on the 38 were AD845 which are singles, and it seems the 38s has now got OPA2604’s which are duals, which is major circuit board track reconfiguration to do this. No pics I found on... 
Mark Levinson 38s Question Real or Fake?
The reason maybe, that yours was upgraded from a 38, and all that was done was important to sound improvement parts only, the circuit boards, to keep cost down. If you read this from Stereophile, it says what the differences are, you should be abl...

rja2,007 posts03-10-2018 2:50pmWould really be fun to see the Soekris DAC1541 included in this conversation. It has volume control and is available at a reasonable price even though it's their top model. +1 for that, seeing they're both doing R... 
Rolling KT150s in Primaluna hp integrated
1graber2111 posts03-10-2018 5:44am@georgehifi as you said, the bias can change the heat. Ah no, I said the main source of heat from tube amps is from the heaters/filament it's circuit/transformer, the bias whatever it is, contributes a small amo... 
MQA•Foolish New Algorithm? Vote!
The industry never learned from the failure of HDCD HDCD didn’t fail, it was a great success, and worked far better than MQA and you didn’t pay for it, until Microsoft bought it from PMD ( Pacific Microsonic Devices) and then did nothing with it ... 
Class D is just Dandy!
To both of you.The Parasound Halo JC1’s in high bias class-a (which is no more than around 20w of A) sounds magnificent, and will blow away any Class-D full stop!!Cheers George
