| Class D amps that are superior to all or most? they are the used cars salesmen of audio Worse.With a UCS, at least you got a car, condition somewhat indeterminate.Some here are peddling pure ephemera. | |
| B&W speakers sounding very harsh? I think Rotel, although good for the money, has a reputation to be bright. Nope. I've never heard a bright Rotel through decent speakers.The 705 series is a WTF as the B&W 80x series are superb. | |
| B&W speakers sounding very harsh? I think you have just accurately and succinctly described the sound of B & W speakers +1 on the B&W 7 series702’s hold the record for the worst sounding speaker I’ve heard in the past 20 years.If your room is an arcade, it’s ear bleed time. | |
| Class D amps that are superior to all or most? In addition, capacitor life expectancy is affected also by electrolyte consumption due to leakage current during voltage application.IOW, listening 2hr/ eats the electrolyte 12x | |
| I knew I shouldn’t have thrown my Electrical Engineering text book in the campus pond! I didn't throw away the text book.A poorly implemented LPS may be worse than a well implemented SMPS.Power supplies have phase and impedance properties. The audio circuitry is simply a regulator for the power supply. Changing the power supply will... | |
| Guys, this is part of the issue I am asking about in my other thread... Search ebay for 3AG fuses. Too much chance of a substandard device.The fuse is the first line of defense for the amp and speakersDigikey, Grainger, Mouser, McMaster-Carr Fuse Manufacturers | Littlefuse, Bussmann, Mersen (fusesunlimited.com) T... | |

| Distributed Bass Array configuration At way louder and extreme listening levels…the way I listen, I have learned that when I play very loud I could care less about bass smearing, because I want to feel the kick drum. DBA is a level invariant low end Loudness contour? I'd always su... | |
| Best Sounding Speaker Cables? There is no best. All one can hope to attain is reasonable compatibility between system components that interfere minimally with the music.@andy2 - show me the science, real not pseudo, and math proving LCR is dynamic to the level it impacts music... | |
| Distributed Bass Array configuration I feel sorry for the rest of the spectrum. | |
| Best Sounding Speaker Cables? ^^^ ¿Que?Are you saying LCR change dynamically with program? | |
| My Apologies to Miller Carbon And the tweakers and tinkerers allow for those brilliant designs to be appreciated all the more. HiFi jewelry. No different than tattoos. |
