| How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you? @phusis It is not a myth, it has to do with the low output impedance of solid state amps. | |
| A listening test of two power amps You can't accurately level match the way you have done. | |
| How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you? The amount of solid state amps that sound good with high sensitivity speakers is also limited, that's why a lot of people choose set amps with these types of speakers. | |
| How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you? @daveyf you also have to consider that tube amps with high sensitivity speakers also limit many tube systems because of noise and hiss which you can't hear as well with low sensitivity speakers. Not all tube equipment is quiet, just like not all ... | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers You did respond to the word though. | |
| Paypal drastic changes This stuff was always taxable if you made a profit, even a garage sale is taxable if you sell something for more than what you paid for it. It used to be the honer system, now there is evidence that's the only difference. | |
| Paypal drastic changes So they never had the resources to go after the rich, is that a joke. Rich people are far more likely to get audited than the average person. They always say they are only going after the rich, then it trickles down to the average earner. | |
| Paypal drastic changes @84xfirez-51 Do you really believe that they are just going after the fat cats? They always say that, then they start going after the average taxpayers because it's easier and they actually collect more money in the long run. | |
| Amp — Leave on or turn off Every piece of equipment I've had a failure with was on power up. I've found that most of the small electrolytic capacitors are what fail due to heat in my krell equipment the big power supply caps don't seem to fail as often. | |
| What's up with the price of Vintage equipment? What new circuit designs are there today that were not done 30-40 years ago? | |
| Why do some amplifiers throw a bigger soundstage than others? I would think that class A amps with less negative feedback would have a bigger soundstage, that could be one of the reasons many tube amps have a great soundstage. | |
| Paypal drastic changes The only thing new about this is the paper trail, these types of taxes have been around for quite a while. The only good thing about this is now you are all starting to see how much the government has been overstepping their boundaries. | |
| How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you? There is a difference between sensitivity and efficiency. | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. There not experimental, they use the largest triode ever made, every part in the circuit has to be able to handle the voltage. One tube can be over 150 watts of output power, so you can use a set amps like these for lower efficiency speakers. | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. @emergingsoul the price of the NAT amplifier you speak of has more of a justification than a lot of other high end amps. Those tubes need about 2kv on the plate,so everything inside the amp has to be able to handle that voltage or you can get cor... |
