Something about Thiel CS 3.7
Thiel 3.7’s great speakers, when driven to get their best. Very low impedance, need an amp that does current real well as Stereophile says. " mandating use of an amplifier that has no problem delivering high currents". But my god are they ugly as ... 
Purifi Class D: Junk?
jaytor I have to say that I am enjoying the sound from my DIY Purifi amps a lot more than the Nord NC500 amps I had last year. I don’t know if this is because of my use of a large linear power supply in my DIY ampsNot saying which are better Clas... 
Adcom 5503 not producing Bass
Also, when I hook up the 5503 there is a light hum coming through the speakers. It’s old enough 25 years, sounds like to me it’s in need of some dried out electrolytic capacitors to be renewed, maybe even the power supply ones also. And there’s lo... 
Purifi Class D: Junk?
Actually they won't. They will all tell you the same thing Yeah, get them to confirm that big furphy 
changing from 220v to 120v
Do you know whether Bryston builds their amps for easy conversion? If the dealer is doing it, without sending it back to Bryston, then it’s easy."Could" even be an internal switch, or soldered bridging padsCheers George 
Purifi Class D: Junk?
Nothing like a tweaked IceEdge or tweaked Purifi. Save use all, looks like another one bringing out his new "tweaked" Class-D, probably has an orange fuse in it tooCan anyone save us us against boutique Class-D manufacturers using threads to promo... 
Purifi Class D: Junk?
It must be getting close to the release of the your new Class-D to respond like that with such verve and virgor with doubling of wattage v halving of impedance loading. Take it up with the likes of D’Agostino, Curl, ect ect manufacturers of the gr... 
Purifi Class D: Junk?
.doubling does not matter.....only the power you need matters Tell that to a pair of ML-2 monoblocks 20w only at 8ohm and can double all the way to 1ohm, one of the most magnificent amps you’ll ever hear.http://www.hifido.co.jp/photo/05/504/50446/... 
Purifi Class D: Junk?
Class D amps are only current limited by the designerShow us just one that’s not, and can almost double it’s rms measured wattage from 4ohm to 2ohm. The true indication of not current limiting, like many good A/B bjt amp. The Purifi module does 40... 
Luxman L-590AXII vs Pass Labs INT-60
But I guess the real question is does bipolar sound better than mosfets at reasonable volumes It does to me, when driving difficult speaker loads.And also I'm one that hears that "Mosfet Mist" they talk about, it like there's a very transparent... 
Purifi Class D: Junk?
As Hypex say, "The NC500 poweramp module is devoid of any sonic signature" this is "without the buffer". And it will give the best "sonic transparency/dynamics" if doable, as I do without any compromises, just better sound and a purer signal path ... 
Luxman L-590AXII vs Pass Labs INT-60
It’s on the remote and has a touch screen volume also.https://gryphon-audio.dk/shop/integrated-amplifiers/gryphon-diablo-300-integrated-amplifier/Cheers George

I have stated on a previous post that Music Direct has a 60 day return policy. Have you stated that you pay for the post and it must be Fedex or UPS, trackable and insured, and they may charge for re-stocking fee as well.You may as well keep it, I... 
The guru on fuses:
What a crock of **** really you guys need to be committed for believing this crud! With regards to AC Mains fuses, and the effect on sound.Are you guys (no idiots), committed to turning hi end audio into the laughing stock of the electronic audio ... 
The guru on fuses:
"shear wave interference"SWI distortion wow!!!! that’s a new one, hope all the tech gurus like Nelson Pass, John Curl, Dan D’Agostino ect ect ect are taking notes on this one as they’ve now been relegated to the back seat.Who pray tell discovered ...
