| Bryston 7B3 vs 4B3: Extra Cost Worthwhile? Thanks | |
| Bryston 7B3 vs 4B3: Extra Cost Worthwhile? @yyzsantabarbara That is another option as the AHB2 is my current amp. Some have said not to use a stereo amp in bridge mode as distortion increases. My impeadance is 6 so half of that probably not an issue for the Benchmark. what SQ advanta... | |
| Bryston 7B3 vs 4B3: Extra Cost Worthwhile? My speaker is not demanding. 6 Ohm Harbeth C7es-XD. But not concerned with playing loud. Looking for control and dynamics as I listen to mostly Classical. | |
| I am about to embark on my next upgrade journey I’ve owned many speakers over the years mostly British made as I prefer their sound characteristics. Recently purchased Harbeth C7es-XD pair. If you want something that sounds like real music with no hype then Harbeth is a wonderful brand with se... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @ghdprentice Had a good laugh at your comment about moving speakers to dust the floor under them. | |
| Handling Heavy Amps I got out of vinyl in the late 90s. Then started ripping CDs to my MacBook a feed year later. I have half a terabyte of music on my MacBook at the moment. Now I’m getting a really nice streamer that will also support me adding up to 16 terabytes o... | |
| Brigid Monos or Mono Blocks? @overthemoon Thanks. Just found out the M400s no longer in production. So the 330A bridged is the only way to get higher power for under $10k and with units weighing under 40 lbs. | |
| Handling Heavy Amps Talked to my dealer and if I buy a heavy amp they can deliver and place on my rack. | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @bigboypete I’m sure my dealer can arrange a delivery and set up. Just concerned about latter issues when it needs to be moved. Would still like to be able to handle myself. | |
| Handling Heavy Amps Accuphase and Luxman are really nice but noway can I handle 97 lbs. in any case No dealers near me for either. | |
| Brigid Monos or Mono Blocks? @overthemoon Please give me your impressions of the M400s. Would love to have some first hand experience as to their SQ. | |
| Brigid Monos or Mono Blocks? @mulveling Thank you. If I decide on the SimAudio I’ll most likely get the two 400m mono blocks. | |
| Brigid Monos or Mono Blocks? @mulveling So am I interpreting your response correctly in that it would be better to use mono blocks rather than bridge two Stereo amps? SimAudio has a unusual way of Bridging the 330A Stereo amp. They sell a XLR Y-daptor cable that on one end... | |
| Handling Heavy Amps @vthokie83 Thanks. I am following that other S5.5 thread. | |
| Handling Heavy Amps Thanks again guys. Very informative responses. At the moment I've got the CODA S5.5 and the SimAudio 330A or 400m Mono blocks at the top of my list. The CODA is 45lbs. The SimAudio units are under 33lbs each. Have no actually experience hearing th... |
