| Any experience of Valvet Audio E2se amplifier? @kw6 Yes, CJ is a great compliment to the XA25 as well as Supratek or similar. The combination is unbeatable.@boxer12 Thank you for the confirmation on sound. Trying to describe what we hear can be difficult and I don’t want to mislead anyone. Val... | |
| Any experience of Valvet Audio E2se amplifier? My pleasure.Seems like an easy enough load for the E2se. I know for myself it’s enough power because I also don’t play very loud. One thing you’ll notice is that you don’t need it loud because of the wonderful clarity, air and 3D. Let it break in.... | |
| Any experience of Valvet Audio E2se amplifier? Ha!Better or not is relative. I personally absolutely love the SIT3 but only on my Avantgarde Duo XD. The Valvet is a very close second if not tied because it’s a little more open and brighter than the SIT3. The Valvet is a little more lit from wi... | |
| Any experience of Valvet Audio E2se amplifier? 10audio did a great review. I bought one and love it. It’s a remarkable little class A amp. Airy, 3D, open, a little sweet on top and a little ballsy especially given a fairly efficient speaker. Give it a little while to break in if you get one an... | |
| Voltage conversion of Accuphase A-48 DMM is a digital multi meter. | |
| Job Integrated Amp. I am using a Shunyata with the built in digital filtering because the Job INTegrated has a dac/digital section. Seems to work extremely well. I don't remember the series name. I'll try and find out. | |
| High Output Preamp for First Watt SIT-3? @charles1dad Hi Charles, I don’t claim to have the best ears but I’m sensitive to too much or aggressive treble. Avantgardes beg to be driven by wonderful SET in my opinion. I’ve been told that the Avantgarde amps are especially wonderful for clas... | |
| High Output Preamp for First Watt SIT-3? @almarg I totally agree with your assessment. Thank you for posting.In my case, even 8 wpc is a lot for me.It’s true that I’m wasting or throwing away power for the sake of keeping the SIT3 in its happy zone. So far the SIT3 is my favorite solid s... | |
| High Output Preamp for First Watt SIT-3? @charles1dad Regarding the optimal ohm rating for the SIT3, the following is from Nelson Pass.“The most popular impedance for the load is 4 to 8 ohms, which is the region where it measures best, and there is not a lot of difference between those t... | |
| Whammerdyne “The Truth” or their other amps ..... Hahahaha !All I can say is that I haven’t made the leap yet. We, meaning I, always want what we don’t have. I have to be honest, I don’t think Whammerdyne is your typical tube amp. It’s definitely special. Maybe the quarantine is getting to me. I’... | |
| Whammerdyne “The Truth” or their other amps ..... Great advice. I’ve been obsessing about what model to get. They all look very well made. I prefer warm/sweet and assume they all have the same or similar house sound. I love the bias control of the DGA1. Some of the others look a little more compl... | |
| Whammerdyne “The Truth” or their other amps ..... @garthb309 Hi,No I have not. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time. I’m torn between trying to get the “Truth” amp or getting the more wallet friendly DGA1 which looks awesome. I’m generally a 300b fan but that Whammerdyne Truth amp hit me h... | |
| High Output Preamp for First Watt SIT-3? @oddiofyl Spot on about not selling the SIT3. With the proper speakers, OMG! | |
| High Output Preamp for First Watt SIT-3? With the appropriate speakers, the SIT3 is sublime. I’m sorry but the Magnepan speakers are not the right pairing. Everything said by the others is right on. Maggies need a lot more power to sing. The SIT3 may be difficult to replace in the future... | |
