Amps with meters ... @almarg - your XA25 is most definitely the best looking amp in their lineup. It’s beautiful. That’s how the power amp should look, at least from my point of view. | |
Amps with meters ... @mijostyn - absolutely agree with you on visual distraction. Good point. | |
Amps with meters ... I really hate those. My last piece with meters was Luxman 505u integrated. Couldn’t wait until I got rid of it (not for the looks though). Most of all I dislike Pass’ ugly useless meters. As of today none of my power amps has meters or displays on... | |
The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? I don’t really care about the compliments, I get those every time somebody listens to my rig, but when somebody calls and asks for my help to put together a system because I inspired them that really makes me happy. | |
My Triad of Integrateds A-Analogue was a suggestion based on my personal extensive audio journey, it’s a great amp and nobody can say otherwise without listening to it. As simple as that.So far those sarcastic childish comments on AA are what they are - childish. I do r... | |
My Triad of Integrateds @ghasley at this point the only upset person here is you, and I don’t even know why. Kind of strange. You’re not even familiar with the pieces (they make 3 integrateds, btw,😂).. @erik_squires I hope you’re not really upset on this matter | |
My Triad of Integrateds @ghasley , honestly didn’t know folks could get upset from learning about one new good but unknown piece, and I highly doubt I did “hijack” the OP’s thread by naming this particular brand. Now I have to add two more brands to be forgiven... oh no... | |
My Triad of Integrateds @tmhaudio , The Maestro is simply on of the best integrateds out there, you, as a business insider, by now definitely know it. At least it’s definitely much better compared with the pieces offered here imo. In a word, Jim, you definitely need a sh... | |
My Triad of Integrateds Any of the Audio Analogue Anniversary line amplifiers should be on the list. Pretty sure nobody’s here know them, which is really sad as they are as good as it gets. Great parts, made in Italy. Extremely musical, enjoyable pieces. And the good ne... | |
What is proper ratio of money spent on amp/preamp/integrated vs speakers? 1:1? @sleepwalker65 , absolutely agree with you - “Do what makes you reasonably happy. Life is too short.” | |
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? I really appreciate your suggestion, Al, the fuses are indeed out.Can’t wait until the stores are open;-)Thanks again.Erik | |
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Thanks for your detailed response, Al.You are right - neither the sub nor the AA were connected to the 1800.First thing for me at this point is to repair the Bat. What could be damaged in it in your opinion? | |
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Hi Al,Thanks for your response. The Bat was on the mids/highs, and my new Audio Analogue Donizetti was on the bass, just a regular connection, no active crossovers. The plan was to get a tube pre for the AA, until that I did that “bi-amping” out ... | |
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Guys, need your opinions here - a couple of weeks ago got the latest version of 1800. Got the piece, connected everything, and since it wasn’t able to work sufficiently with my main amp (2400w max) I put my Bat 255se (1500 max) on it. Everything w... | |
unbalanced xlr input (a24) to mytek balanced output In my setup between true-balanced Bat42se and a21 there is no 6db increase via XLR connection, but between my two separate Bat components and other true-balanced devices the increase in volume is obvious. I doubt the a21 is a true-balanced amp. |
