| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! Has anyone experienced a channel drop out when powering-on the amp? The other day when I turned it on, the blue lights came on as usual then the left light went out and the sound of static began to grow from the left speaker. I quickly powered i... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! I had taped a couple of guitar picks on the amp to cover the blue lights. While that looked pretty nice (ha) I got some of those LED stickers today. Works like a charm. | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! Has anyone addressed the 2 blue headlights beaming at you when this thing is on? | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @sim_audio_nerd would you have any comments on how Sim Audio Moon amps compare to the S5.5? I assume you were running them at some point. | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @grk you're right. I verified in the manual, it says this about the front buttons: 2. The INPUT SELECTOR button switches between the balanced and unbalanced inputs. 4. This two color LED indicates that the main power is on. When it is green th... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! Sorry if this is a little off-topic, but I’ve been struggling to find good preamp options that have HT bypass. I need the preamp to take bypassed input from a surround processor, and normal input from a streamer. Then it occurred to me. The S5.5 i... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @johnah5 do you have any thoughts on whether the S5.5 might be a good match for Sonus Faber Amati Traditions? People tend to recommend around 500w to bring out their best and are usually paired with McIntosh. | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @hanki just for clarification, you’re Magico S5 speakers have the following specs and you don’t find the S5.5 lacking in power or bass output compared to other amps? Sensitivity: 88dB Impedance: 4 Ohms Recommended Power: 50 watts - 1000 Watts I ... | |
| Gallium Nitride GaN Class D Amplifiers @bhvf , care to say what the old and new cables were? It might help others who happen to be using similar cables | |
| Proac K6 Signature, Sonus Faber Amati Tradition,Verity Audio Amadis, Kharma DB-9 @garebear what speakers did you end up going with? Looks like ProAC was in the lead on this thread. It happens to be on my list to listen to. The dealer has ProAC k6 Sig on demo, however, I may go with something lower in the line like the D48... | |
| Getting the most out of streamed video: Netflix and Plex (with NVIDIA Shield Pro?) Just to report back some of my research...The Zidoo (and other similar players) are purposely designed with local storage and a native menu for playing media. So to get the most of these devices, you would copy media directly to it, then play. And... | |
| Getting the most out of streamed video: Netflix and Plex (with NVIDIA Shield Pro?) Shield Pro is no doubt ahead in regards to feature set. For example, it has Dolby Vision where the other premium choices don't.Both the Zidoo and Shield are android based, so I'm assuming the Netflix/Plex experience would be very similar. I see ... | |
| Getting the most out of streamed video: Netflix and Plex (with NVIDIA Shield Pro?) millercarbon, I'm sure your 2-ch setup is stellar, would love to hear it. I have a setup with separate 2-ch side and surround side, where front L/R are always powered by 2-ch pre/amp. Surround equipment can remain off when playing music.auxinput... | |
| Paradigm Persona the right source matters! Has anyone else found that Personas respond significantly to speaker cables? I was told that speaker cables would make the smallest difference of all components, but was very surprised when I installed a new pair of Audio Sensibility Testament Bi... | |
| Upgrade from Paradigm Prestige to Persona In a similar situation I purchased my 3F speakers without hearing them first. Actually, I did not even hear any Paradigm speaker so I wasn't familiar with the "house sound" as you are.You may be off to a good start if you already enjoy the Para... |
