| 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... | |
| Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll @retrocrownfan Your ps200 amps are not Class A, they run squarely in class AB or B. | |
| Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll @jerryg123 do not get those batteries wet in your car Its inadvisable to submerge any car, gas or electric. I have a fried with solar in his home and he is still battling noisy power in his system when on battery power Your friend obvi... | |
| Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll The car I drive around town is 100% electric, up-spec'd home solar system...so for me class A isn't a problem. Thank goodness because I presently have five different class A amps in residence. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused Better powered speakers do indeed utilize specific amps for specific drivers with the crossover before the amps rather than after. With that said, I'm not a fan of powered monitors. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @ronboco Why does an onboard amp in an active speaker pair better than separate amplification ? Are the drivers different than a passive speaker? Are the crossovers different than in a passive speaker? It seems the only thing active does is eli... | |
| Digital is far better than vinyl Both can sound exceptional, neither is absolutely the best nor is anyone’s playback chain accurate. I’m not after accurate, just enjoyable. | |
| Does an Audioquest Niagra 1200 limit amplifier dynamics? Not all power "conditioners" are created equal nor are any two home/power delivery situations identical so there is no universal answer to your question. It also depends on the amp (class A or A/B). I have a Niagara 1200 in one system and I notice... | |
| New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones) I love it that the hobby can still get excited when a cool new product can generate positive buzz. Thats good for all. I hope they sell well. I do find it quite interesting that there have been several comments about the Hifi Rose gear potenti... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers | |
| Do YOU have a flat frequency response in your room? @esarhaddon No, I was talking about recorded music for which the mixes were tailored for the intended audience and how they might play it back. Alot of music was compromised because they made certain that it was optimized for AM or FM rebroadcas... | |
| Do YOU have a flat frequency response in your room? @esarhaddon Your premise is potentially fallable. You assume engineering and production for best sound quality may have been the goal…which isn’t always the case. More than a few productions may have been mixed to optimize sound from a boombo... |
