Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations @pynkfloydd I have about 70 hours of play time on the BHK 300 monoblocks. I can easily state that these are the best stock amplifiers I have ever had in any of my systems. I absolutely love their sound which is clean, clear, slightly forward, tr... | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations Update on the PSAudio BHK 300 monoblocks - what a difference 13 hours makes. These amps sound clean, powerful, dynamic with vivid tonal colors. Really nice clarity and excellent imaging. These are not TAS approved boat anchors. | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations Just installed the BHK 300 monoblocks into my refernce system. I am going to let it play continuously for long stretches before seriously listening. Nevertheless, before I left this house this morning - with less than 1 hour of playtime - I came... | |
PS Audio BHK 600 My BHK 300 monoblocks are scheduled to arrive this Friday! My Atma-Sphere 100 wpc class d monoblocks will arrive shortly after the PSAudio monoblocks. I anticipate liking both and will likely expand my rotation of amplifiers. | |
power cord for pass 250.8 Pharoah powercord by Grover Huffman. I used them on my PassLabs 250.5s and they were excellent. | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations @pynkfloydd I have been recommended the Siemens NOS 7308 tubes. Will set me back 1200 bills for 4. Also tungsram ecc88s. Any recs based on your listening would be appreciated.... | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations @atmasphere thanks for the above explanation! Great talking with u recently as well. I am still interested in your class d amps as I rotate amps thru 4 two channel systems at two homes. | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations @pynkfloydd many thanks. I was going to pick up a pair of used PS Audio BHK 300 monoblocks used then got cold feet when the seller did not know how old they were and the serial numbers were non-sequential. So I ordered a brand new pair from P SA... | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations @tweak1 I do have a modded Voyager GAN. It is a very fine amplifier. Not as good to my ears as my modded JC1 monoblocks but mighty fine. I like having a menu of amps to rotate or have as backups. Never used any of the contact enhancers - migh... | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations @ yyzsantabarbara I sold my Coda #16 amp last year. My modded LSA Voyager GAN amp is worth a lot more to me than I could ever get for it by selling it. Class D has come a long damn ways. I suspect that the gan fet is a chunk of this progress as... | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations Do PS Audio BHK 300 monoblock amps require a 20 amp line? If not require one would the sound better with one? Or is a 15 amp line sufficient? | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations @ wspohn at this moment I have my Ric-modded LSA Voyager GAN amplifier inserted in my reference system. It sounds quite good actually. | |
Handling Heavy Amps OP, great question cause many of us struggle with this issue moving around monster amps. Gonna get me one of those hydraulic things... | |
Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations Thanks @dhungana @veerossi | |
Why do some amplifiers throw a bigger soundstage than others? I must admit that it is fun imagining my large deep soundstage emanating from my reference system. So damn good that I suspect it ain’t real - its a repeating simulation. |
