Handling Heavy Amps @ddafoe Thanks for the information. I completely agree with your assessment of the AHB2. It is a really nice amp. So clean, quiet and super detailed. But I feel like I’m right in the front row or very close to the performance. Sometimes the deta... | |
Aurender and MSB DAC Synergy @brskie Have a BNC cable available so you can try the clock out on the MSB connected to your N20 clock input. Makes a huge difference in sound. | |
Accuphase Experiences @zszwedo Thanks. I’m looking forward to auditioning the P-4600 on Wednesday. | |
Handling Heavy Amps @ddafoe The ABH2 is light. What made you move from it? Did go from it to the Class D? | |
Handling Heavy Amps @ddafoe A lot of amps in 5 years and three of the four quite heavy. How did the AHB2 compare to the Bryston and Pass 150? | |
Handling Heavy Amps Just the Bryston on Monday. Then the Accuphase P-4600 on Wednesday. Even though the dealer will deliver the 90 lb Pass that will just fit on my shelf seems really to big and heavy. However if both auditions leave me undecided I’ll go back and lis... | |
Handling Heavy Amps @velocityofhue I agree but they are in another weight class. 88-100lbs. | |

Aurender Conductor App Experience Everything good today with iPad. Also switched the Discrete DAC output impedance to low and it’s much better with my amp. Significantly better. | |
Handling Heavy Amps Just listed my HPA4 on Audiogon | |
Handling Heavy Amps Now that I am satisfied that my MSB Discrete DAC sounds better direct to my amp than through the Benchmark HPA4 I've listed the preamp on Audiogon. | |
Aurender Conductor App Experience Thanks for confirming it's just my imagination.That's what I thought. | |
Handling Heavy Amps What does the second AHB2 actually do. Benchmark keeps telling me I would hear no difference unless I was clipping with one | |
Accuphase Experiences I will be auditioning the Bryston 4b3 Monday and the Accuphase P-4600 on Wednesday. I did find out the you can run the e4000 or e5000 Integrated amps as an amp bypassing the entire pre amp section by using the XLR power amp inputs. I will repo... | |
Handling Heavy Amps I’ve narrowed my choices down to three options Keep the ABH2 and possibly add a second to go bridge mode. Bryston 4b3 - Will be auditioning on Monday Accuphase P-4600 - Will be auditing on Wednesday If not much difference compared to what I... |
