| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @fuzztone Please don't hold it against Aurender that their gear is unable to utilize Roon. Aurender gear sounds great and many have found that they enjoy it immensely, same thing goes for Grimm, Taiko, eta al. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev I did not directly compare the Grimm with the Statement. The new version wasn’t out when I was in the market, however, I had heard the previous Statement version, which was impressive. The most recent Aurender I listed to was the W20 and I... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? I replaced an Innuos Zenith Mk3 (Amplifi-Network Acoustics Rubicon Switch-Network Acoustics Muon system-Innuos; Innuos-FTA Sinope-Totaldac D1-Tube-Mk3) with a Grimm Audio MU1 (Amplifi-Rubico-Muon-Grimm-Shunyata Sigma v2 AES-Totaldac). The Grim... | |
| Compact ~20WPC Tube Amp @mdalton Until the OP shares the specifics on his speakers, its all just conjecture. The Leben CS300xs is a really cool and versatile amp. It also has a switch for 4/6/8 ohm output impedence. | |
| Compact ~20WPC Tube Amp @dhcod For the time being, I'm starting to play with a Scott 222C, also an EL84 amp @20WPC, just to confirm that more power is what I'm looking for. Seems to be so far. Did you already own the 222c or were you able to find and purchase one th... | |
| Compact ~20WPC Tube Amp @dhcod Are you going to share the specifics on your speakers? I’m a huge fan of the EL84 tube but depending on your speakers, they could be wrong. It also depends on the amp topology. A single ended el84 amp begins to distort at 5ish watts with ... | |
| Compact ~20WPC Tube Amp Hey guys, we all know that you both build great products. Deep respect for Atmasphere and Aric Audio. Here's what we don't know...what speakers does the OP own, are they mechanically and electrically to spec and are they appropriate for a tube... | |
| Own many mid-game speakers or a few end-game speakers. @dillonlennon Nice of you to stop by, join and post and endorsement about an obscure speaker brand. DO you have any affiliation? What is the rest of your system? | |
| Compact ~20WPC Tube Amp Alot of solid recommendations and yet, not a mention of the speakers in question. The OP hasn’t mentioned what speakers he is using that are admittedly somewhere around 45-50 years old. He hasn’t mentiontioned impedence, brand, whether the crossov... | |
| New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones) @singintheblues VAT? | |
| Ultimate Integrated amps I don’t know what to tell you other than the magazine can’t rewrite Ohm’s law. HOWEVER, if we drop in their 1,171 watts of output into a 2 ohm load you get….wait for it….a rated current of 23.67. Your magazine rated current at 238 amps…that’s ... | |
| Ultimate Integrated amps @swede58 The magazine must have had a typographical error. Ohms law, utilizing Gryphon’s own specs (950w into a 2 ohm load) calculates current at 21.8 amps. | |
| Ultimate Integrated amps @swede58 you can imagine how much wall power and the size of the amplifier, power supplies, etc would be necessary to drive 238 amps of current. If the Diablo did so then they have overcome Ohm’s law. It was like a misprint…23.8 amps is proba... | |
| Devore O vs Audionote Heresy III Capitol Records edition speakers that seem to sound much better than DeVores. ….said only one person ever… | |
| Devore O vs Audionote @wolf_garcia Does anybody around here think Devore speakers are somewhat overpriced? Isn’t most everything we want? Seriously, people tend to buy what they want. People tend to try to build what will sell. Straightforward so far. BUT…the preo... |
