| Class D = Trash? I dumped several Cass A and A/B amps because they weren't to my liking. I guess they, as a whole group of amps, are not ready for primetime 😁 I also did not like a couple of tube amps in my audio life. I guess tube amps are ready for the trash. Y... | |
| Replacing A Resistor/Fuse In An Amplifier Yes this can be done very easily IF you have experience soldering and desoldering on a circuit board. If not, you can EASIiLY lift a trace or worse and wish you never tried! | |
| Class D = Trash? Subjective preferences at play here. No more, no less. I owned several 845 amps and liked them. I like my Class D Lyngdorf even bettter however. All about the total system anyway and it's synergy or lack of it according your your ears alone. | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... The shielding alone will help in noise reduction. I think this is one area of improvement in my particular case. Best $15 I ever spent is all I know without a doubt! | |
| Tekton Electron has been released Mac48025, I have not seen the internal crossover and wiring so I cannot say how difficult it would be to work on these. However I do know form experience that the Duelund wire, Duelund & Jupiter grade capacitors can dramatically improve a spea... | |
| Best full range loudspeaker for the used price of 10 to 13,000 dollars $4000 is the upgraded version as an FYI. $3000 stock. | |
| Best full range loudspeaker for the used price of 10 to 13,000 dollars The AZ Crescendo is a great choice. I,own them also. For $4,000 I hear the new Tekton Double Impact speakers are amazing. The reviewer liked them better than the Crescendos! Oh my. Check them out. No need to spend more perhaps. | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... Thanks Al. I should say I replaced an old unshielded Cat 5 cable going through several junction points and terminations with a straight run of the double shielded Cat 7. No mystery I hear better sound quality on my streamed audio based on your po... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... We know it doesn't make sense to many of us, but just because we cannot explain it (yet) does not make the experience of better sound impossible. We cannot explain many things around us that are true and happening. Life itself... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... Sorry as I just ran a 25 foot length under my house directly from my main router right into my computer server. No need to terminate for me. Also purchased 3 foot patch cords already terminated for TVs and other home computers.You would need a spe... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... A fuse is certainly a weak point or limiting portion of the power supply. Try building the whole supply with tiny thin wire the gauge of a fuse and see how she sounds. Yes an exaggerated statement. Yes it is a weak link right? Can we agree on tha... | |
| Tekton Electron has been released I would want to upgrade with Jupiter or Duelund copper foil capacitors as well as the Duelund stranded copper wire. Clarity are fine caps, but not in the league of Duelund or Jupiter. I have not tried the new Clarity cap replacing the MR line ho... | |
| Tekton Electron has been released Well I am now most interested in hearing these. It does seem too good to be true😀 | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... Agreed! With no burn in my wife easily heard the difference. All cables matter, but I admit I missed the Ethernet cable thinking conventional wisdom was surely right and this cable could not possibly make a difference? Well, once again conventi... | |
| Tekton Electron has been released Jetter, great point on the length of time. I too have owned speakers that just dropped my jaw for the first couple of weeks to only later be sold. It takes time to really hear a speaker and come to grips with the sound personality. Yes all speak... |
