| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) So I need class A with good voltage delivery and not tons of wattage. Something like the F5 Yes? | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) It does. Yes. | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) No.... You're not understanding this problem right at all. Stop thinking about this as a wattage problem. Wattage is an abstraction and those calculators you linked to are not at all telling you what you need to know. Focal speakers are designed... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) Well, according to this link I need 47 wattshttps://geoffthegreygeek.com/calculator-amp-speaker-spl/According to this one I need 130.4http://headphoneaddict.com/power-calculator/According to this one 90-300 watts if I understand correctlyhttp://rf... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) @uberwaltz That being said they were never ever driven with less than 150wpc amps with current to spare........ I am currently eyeing an amp thats 150wpc but my concern is how much louder it will be like once you leave "0" on the volume haha. That... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) I am a rocker/noise guy and vouch for McCormack 225 / RLD-1 with Platinum upgrades w/ Dynaudio Contour S1.4 and a REL Stadium III. Mostly vinyl but supporting all formats Thanks. You're running them with Focal speakers? I'm confused. I'm not bu... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) @kosst_amojenI have to ask: while searching in the speaker forum here you commented about these speakers needing "good class a power to make them shine" and also: " Robust solid state power is what those speakers like, especially class A power. I’... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) There are two options I have that I think would be great matches with your budget and speakers:Dayens Ecstasy III - 100 WPC integrated that offers refined sound with a natural ease to the music. Retail is $2,200. https://www.audiothesis.com/ec... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) Ha! Guess that base is well covered! Maybe a different amp is what you need. Not necessarily more power though. I was thinking that an amp that doubled its wattage at 4 ohms having more current vs more wattage.I went to my local Focal dealer and ... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) Try moving each one in 8 inches. I’ve moved them from about touching to 30" from the front wall in 2" steps. I’ve moved them closer together. Further apart. On a different wall.The closer to the front wall the more boomy the bass gets but while ... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) That means those speakers don't challenge that amp very much. I'd start looking at placement and room issues. A nicer amp isn't going to hurt your sound, but I'm not seeing an amp related technical problem here. I have no idea how else to set ... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) I measured the Focal Chorus 807V with its grille removed. Its voltage sensitivity on the tweeter axis was significantly higher than the average I have measured over the years, at an estimated 90dB(B)/2.83V/m, though this is a little lower than... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) More power won’t fill in the holes. This speaker is easy to drive and is friendly to tubes so I have trouble imagining that a class D amp can’t drive it.How long are your speaker cables? 8ft each. Belden cables from BJC. I forget if they are 10 or... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) So like mine, yours dive from the lower mids through to the bass. I have bass. But no midbass (until I start getting volume north of 90db).I don’t think I have a power issue so much as a current issue.Whats your take on it?Stereophile reviewd your... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) I seriously doubt it's a power issue seeing as how I'm powering much bigger, much more challenging Focals with a 32 watt amp. Which amp and which speakers? |
