| which gain setting for Bryston 4b cubed power amp using my RME ADI-2 DAC FS? Yes I’m currently running my MSB Discrete DAC directly into my Benchmark AHB2 Amplifier. I have the amp gain at the mid setting of 17db and the DAC Output Impedance set to Low (150 ohms). This gives me a good volume range on my DAC. Volume control... | |
| Aurender Conductor App Experience Works ok on my iPad and iPhone | |
| Handling Heavy Amps Ok thanks. Will check it out. | |
| Handling Heavy Amps How is payment handled on USAM? I do have an account there. Never listed there. | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @audphile1 I did try Audiogon but got not one watcher or question. . A day after EBay listing already got 35 watchers and two enquirers. I’ve always had success on EBay. If it doesn’t sell in 10 days I’ll relist on Audiogon | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @audphile1 Yes this is the final piece of the system; Aurender N20 Streamer MSB Discrete DAC Accuphase P-4600 Amplifier Harbeth C7es-XD Speakers I will have completely replaced my current system I guess at some point I’ll go down the rab... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @laginz I did my best to find a light weight amp I could live with. But once I was able to have it delivered and setup for me I decided to entertain amps under 70 pounds. And there are many in that 45-70 lb range. It came down to the Bryston 4b3... | |
| Accuphase Amplifier Power Cable Ok thanks I’ll search | |
| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line I had the N200 on my radar for months and loved it when I finally demoed it. It’s very smooth and detailed. However once I decided to also buy an MSB Discrete DAC that has a BNC Word Clock output I moved up to the Aurender N20 that has a Word Cloc... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @elliottbnewcombjr Yes heavier than I initially was targeting but I could only find amps that were heavier that I liked and that were near me that I could demo.Once I understood that most dealers would deliver and setup I was more comfortable... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps Well you have a point but I usually go with my gut instincts. I tried to convince myself that the Accuphase was not worth the additional cost but deep down I know it was the best amp I’ve auditioned and I really liked its sound characteristics. I ... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps Had my Accuphase-P-4600 amp audition today. The amplifier is a beautifully designed component. Extremely well built The sound was also beautifully musical with a wide and deep soundstage. The bass was very impactful. Actually the overall sound wa... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps Just got back from my Bryston 4B3 audition It’s a very nice amp. It’s overall better than the AHB2 that I currently have. The Treble is more extended and a little smoother. The mid range a little more relaxed and laid back. The soundstage depth i... | |
| Accuphase Experiences @vassilis_t Thanks. The dealer will be using an Accuphase preamp, a Chord DAC and Harbeth Speakers. The A-80 is too big and heavy for my needs. Plus I prefer the A/AB line with more power. | |
| Accuphase Experiences @vassilis_t The only consistent criticism of the Accuphase products sound is the while the upper and mid base is excellent the lower bass lacks impact. Did you find this to be true? I will be testing this when I audition the P-4600 on Wednesda... |
