| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings @rvpiano Yes those Barbiroli recordings have been excellently up sampled especially the 5th and 9th. That 9th was my favorite in my Analog days. As good as those are if I’m focusing on recording quality I have to go with the Boulez cycle on DG ... | |
| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings @rvpiano Which recordings are you referring to? | |
| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings @mspot The Haitink cycle is an excellent recording. It’s especially spacious which is unusual for Decca. Very nice wide soundstage and depth. Good instrument separation. The only criticism I’d give is the Woodwind section especially flutes is som... | |
| Watts! How many do we need? My Speakers are Harbeth C7ES-XD at 86db sensitivity. They are rated at up to 150 watts. Their impedance is 6 ohms with the lowest at 5.8 ohms. So an easy drive. But I've been told they like power. The Accuphase P4600 is rated at 150 watts per chan... | |
| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings @audphile1 Yes I was focusing on the recorded sound. Rostropovich performances are always excellent. | |
| Watts! How many do we need? @westcoastaudiophile As a follow up I guess I’m mostly running in Class A since I have not been able push my meters pass 1 watt. | |
| Watts! How many do we need? @weatcoastaudiophile Still don’t understand how you calculated your number from those specs but you were on the money. Here’s the response from Accuphase. The actual amount of Class A bias for the P-4600 is not a fixed amount and will vary de... | |
| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings @audphile1 Familiar with Tutti. Have most of the Telarcs. The Shostakovich is a decent Live recording but like most live recordings lacks air, soundstage depth and scale. Try the Levi / Atlanta on Telarc for an expansive large scale experienc... | |
| Watts! How many do we need? Ok I’ll send them an email. They’re very responsive | |
| Watts! How many do we need? @westcoastaudiophile Yep that's what I was looking at. 6 transistors per channel. Now I would be happy if I was getting 10 watts per channel in Class A. Please direct to where this is noted. | |
| Watts! How many do we need? @westcoastaudiophile The specs on their site say 6 transistors per channel. Still don’t see how you com to this conclusion. They don’t mention any Class A wattage. | |
| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings @newbee I’m a big Copland fan and have the Telarc Kunzel recording of those works. It’s excellent. | |
| Watts! How many do we need? @westcoastaudiophile Where did you see that the P4600 is Class A up to 20W? | |
| Watts! How many do we need? @westcoastaudiophile That is my exact question. The meters never exceed 1 watt. Some here have said they are not accurate and don’t record peaks but I have them set to freeze at peaks. | |
| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings @newbee The Copland 3rd on Reference has been one of my references for years. Also try Robert Farnon’s works on Reference especially this Rhapsody for Violin I agree the Zimerman Ravel is a slightly better recording than Wangs but she is sp... |
