| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler @gosta,please let me know your impressions when and if you try the X250.8 and the H30. | |
| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler @csarcone,Thank you. That was/is exactly my issue, the treble sometimes is too sharp, that is the reason I would like to try something else than Ncore. Before the Ncore I had the Nuforce Ref9seV3 which exhibited similar behaviour. I have read that... | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? It has been said many many times. The Class of the amplifier is just one of the aspects of its design. Things like power supplies, quality of components, EMC measures, layout of the board, internal structure, internal cabling, etc all matter. I ha... | |
| Different amplifier class for different music genres? @minorl An amplifier is designed to amplify the input signal with expected 100% accuracy. It is designed to operate with a flat frequency response over the stated frequency range into a designed for load. The key word here is ' expected '. I am... | |
| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler @yage I am using the Weiss Filter A, Daniel promised some more filters but never had the time or felt the need to implement them. I was planning of doing exactly what you are suggesting, passing the BAT.@gosta. That is an impressive list of amps ... | |
| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler @gregm, first of all are we in the same country? :) Thanks for the suggestions, very interesting that you put the Vitus above the Diablo 120 but below the 300. Is there that much difference between the two Diablos? I thought the ASR emitter II exc... | |
| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler Thanks! I will PM you soon as I will start looking in the next month or so. | |
| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler Glad you have been vaccinated and you have freedom to move around. I have done anything about the amp yet, we have been busy renovating a dream house which we are just about finishing off. I lived in the UK for many, many years always in London an... | |
| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler Thank you for responding! I honestly didn't expect anyone to reply after such a long time. I used to live in London and I would regularly visit several hifi shops. Where I am living currently is very difficult to find dedicated hifi shops and with... | |
| Different amplifier class for different music genres? Thank you all. You learn every day. It has been a long time I was wondering if my amps have synergy with my speakers. I am not prepared to change my speakers at this point so I would like to try different amps. @mijostyn. Thanks! It sounds like yo... | |
| Different amplifier class for different music genres? @georgehifi, I generally agree but the reviewer was talking about the Gryphon Antileon which has a massive PSU and provides tons of current. Of course it could be that he was talking lots of rubbish... | |
| Different amplifier class for different music genres? @redwoodaudio, thank you. I did ask a genuine question, there are people in here who think they know it all and are frankly rude. Anyway, I agree with you about system synergy and a small change can alter the overall system sound. While I would li... | |
| Different amplifier class for different music genres? @yeti42 Thanks, that is exactly what I want to avoid, a total mismatch of amp with the speaker for the type of music that I listen to. Perhaps a more appropriate question would be to ask for amp recommendations for my speakers, if anyone still us... | |
| Different amplifier class for different music genres? is the signal from a Metallica song,different from the signal from a classical song? No of course not, the same signal passes from the source all the way to the speakers, but my thinking is that the emphasis may be different for classical music t... | |
| Are "vintage" DAC's worthwhile, or is this a tech that does not age well I still use my Weiss DAC202 which I have since 2011 and I am not changing it any time soon. The DAC chip(s) influences the sound of the DAC but there are other factors that are just as important, like the quality of the clock and jitter control cc... |
