| Thinking of replacing my Bat spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please uberwaltz Thinking of replacing my Bat BAT VK600SE spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please http://www.openaudio.co.kr/cdn/item/20080506/VK-600SE-2.jpg Whatever, do not sell/trade the BAT VK600SE which is a magnificent amp, before li... | |
| D'Agastino Momentum vs Dartzeel NHB108 jwm841 posts05-13-2017 9:21pmGeorge I would put the Rockport’s along with your Wilson and B & W speakers. Depends which model and if it had a test/s done so we can see the impedance vs -phase angle graph then I could answer that for you.This ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... But they will sound different to those withl "expectation bias" because they just spent >$100 for a $2 item. BTW I asked you to "post links" for factual scientific non audio related data, any data supplied by the company selling the fuse can be... | |
| D'Agastino Momentum vs Dartzeel NHB108 Two very different amps, even though both are solid state. The Dartzeel can't push current like the D'Ago can. The better sound may depend on what speaker are going to be used.Dartzeel: Measured 160W into 8 ohms 230W into 4 ohms but 162W into ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Fuses - all fuses - have been measured to have lower resistance in one direction than the other. Please post links to proven scientific data on this, not just hearsay. Maybe old fuses that have had many switch-on cycles put through them, sag and ... | |
| Passive Preamp Options I can’t give you any comparison details, but one of my Lightspeed Attenuator (quad matched ldr preamp) owners here, did some comparisons with the Townsend Passive Autotransformer (approx $3.5K). And there are a few others in this thread that did t... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! Our Kangaroo some say in plague proportions in Australia is very efficient, a bit like the Class-D, of the distance v speed travelled in the animal world. But is very one dimensional in it's movement and that straight ahead, easily picked off by a... | |
| Audio aero Capitole MKII Cd player Looking at this I would say yes no problem, it looks like it may have a SMPS which is able to do all these voltages. http://audiofederation.com/dealership/audioaero/Capitole-MKII-CD-player-photo-gallery/IMG_0121.jpghttp://www.canuckaudiomart.com/d... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! For that matter, Bolt can also "compete" against a cheetah. I think we all know Al, that’s a far fairer race. Than Ralph’s V the Class-D given the ideal speaker for each.Cheers George | |
| Class D = Trash? Again can't see the forest through the trees. Not one mention of the output filter that has to address the switching noise of the switching frequency, which is the Achilles Heel with present day switching frequencies.Cheers George | |
| Class D is just Dandy! This "competes" is not saying anything, as I can "compete" against Usain Bolt in a 100mt race, I don't think there'd be any money put down on me to win anywhere in the world! This competeshttp://www.classdaudio.com/sds-series-amplifiers/sds-470c... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Finally I just installed the fuse with direction along with the flow of electricity and decided to leave it then. Hate to tell you, but AC electricity doesn’t flow, it alternates back and forward 50 or 60 time a second (50hz 60hz) depending which... | |
| Class D = Trash? There's also the matter of you seriously over-estimating the improvements that will result from using higher switching frequencies in the 3-5 mHz range. I think the new faster switching FETs are more likely to improve class D performance than h... | |
| Class D = Trash? So it is quite possible both the Technics use ICEedge at their core.If your saying that they used a "similar" topology as Ice, that maybe possible.But I doubt very much that Technics is using Ice modules or anything from Ice, even licensing perm... | |
| Martin Logan CLS vs. ReQuest You should be able to get louder db levels from the Request's for hard hitting music. But if you like to listen at moderate levels and to middle of the road, chamber or orchestral music the the CSL's would be less coloured and more truthful to the... |
