| Speaker Audition @bigwave1 said Have a look at the GR Research-Line Force with Servo Subs. Some DYI but not impractical. Line source and line array, efficient cutting edge. I believe without servos,12K. I’m drooling. I'm planning to build a set of these and am ... | |
| High end Class D amps? George - you obviously aren't interested in class D, so why do you keep bothering to post on this and other class D threads? | |
| High end Class D amps? @twoleftears - I am thinking about trying an input buffer using tubes. I don't think I would consider using the Korg NuTube like ATM does. This is a pretty high-distortion device - specifically designed to add distortion for synthesizer special e... | |
| High end Class D amps? From an article on Audiophile Style - interview with Bruno Putzeys. @Sagittarius: Class D has achieved very low levels of distortion, but is it possible for class D amplifiers to continue their evolution into something close to a straight wire wit... | |
| High end Class D amps? I think I stated earlier in this thread that I used to own a pair of Nord Hypex NC500 monoblocks. There was a lot to like about them, and I think they delivered compelling performance for the price, but were not as engaging as I was looking for in... | |
| BlueSound Stinks(!), anyone? I own four Node 2i streamers that I use for various secondary zones around my house. But I generally use Roon to control them instead of the Bluesound app. I think they are all connected via ethernet since I have my whole house wired, but I have o... | |
| High end Class D amps? 10K class d is paying for a name, and aesthetics. 800$ class D amp is smart buy. Don’t let the sheep make a line you can’t help but follow. Happy hunting. As with any audio component these days, it's possible to get pretty good quality for a ... | |
| High end Class D amps? This argument seems kind of silly. As with class A and class A/B, a class D amp's output power at any given load impedance is limited by its voltage and current capabilities. In class A and class A/B amps, the output transistors are dissipating po... | |
| Preamp recommendation If you are interested in the Parasound JC2-BP, I have one for sale on USAM - less than two years old and in excellent condition. I'm the original owner. | |
| Can Monoblock be split for analog and digital Something like this would probably work. I'm not sure how good the connectors are, but it's relatively inexpensive to give it a try. https://www.amazon.com/Balanced-Audio-Switcher-Passive-Splitter/dp/B07THHFJMT | |
| Can Monoblock be split for analog and digital If I understand you correctly, you're suggesting having the output of two different devices connected together to drive the same amp, with the expectation that only one would be powered on. Depending on the circuitry of each device (which I am not... | |
| Roon+Multiple Zones with 2 Dacs. I think you will have timing issues. While Roon does a pretty good job synchronizing multiple zones, you'd need synchronization within a few milliseconds to keep phase errors from causing frequency response problems. Synchronization accuracy is no... | |
| High end Class D amps? The D in class D has nothing to do with digital. This amplifier topology just happened to be the fourth (after A, B, and C) to be described and was assigned the letter D. It does so happen that class D switches the output transistors, but then so ... | |
| To Roon or not I've been very happy with Roon. After my annual subscription expired, I opted for the lifetime subscription (about 1 1/2 years ago). Roon has made a number of improvements since I've started using it. This spring, I built a new Roon server based o... | |
