| Amp — Leave on or turn off Hello Hickamore The manual on my FW F3 from Nelson Pass states - "I do not personally see a reason to run the amplifier all the time, but you can do that if you want to ". "Also, at 200 watts it makes economic sense to shut the amplifier off... | |
| Amp — Leave on or turn off Class D / on 24/7 Class A / off RVPiano - are you aware the Benchmark can be set for auto shutdown after 45 minutes of sensing no audio signal? Also the Benchmark handbook states that due to the SMPS power supply the amp is at its full poten... | |

| Looking for 200 watt Amp to drive Dynaudio Heritage speakers Benchmark ABH2? Yes, only 100 watts but small footprint, lightweight, cool running, exceptionally clean sounding and ultra quiet. Strap two together at 360 watts for under $5K the pair used. | |
| Best Circa 90's CDP Continuing with Pioneer, the Elite PD93 or PD95. Both bigger brothers, much, to the PD65. I own 93. Pop the bonnet to be amazed at the build quality. Separate outboard mounted digital and analog transformers. A masterpiece in its day, still ... | |
| 2a3 ? Nearly pulled the trigger on 45 amps as well but concerned about availability/durability/reliability of tubes that haven't been manufactured in decades. I have little tolerance for equipment that may have questionable reliability. | |
| 2a3 ? Good call Atmasphere. I owned the Melody i2a3 running 4x parallel 2a3's for 16-18 watts. A superbly built amp (why did I sell it?). I have the speakers to take advantage of five watts or less so no issues there. I believe I understand single e... | |
| Power supply poll for Chord Qutest A ordered a LHY for my RME from TEK Electronics in the US on Jan.12. Order sent to LHY in China for properly configured unit. I received the piece today, less than one week. No time to listen but turnaround service was quite impressive as is bu... | |
| Advantages with an outboard power supply Looking at several power supply options I ordered an LHY from TEK Electronics who rep Jays Audio. I also ordered a Sablon USB cable both of which should be here late next week. | |
| Ken Fritz article After the enthusiasm for a million dollar hifi system the deeper, sadder story is one of obsession, selfishness, alienation and loneliness. A sad tale of a one track, laser focused mind. But you’ve got to tip your hat for one fulfilling his life ... | |
| Using PA Speakers In A Home "Audiophile" Application! Xilica XP series. Preferably model 4080 - | |
| Using PA Speakers In A Home "Audiophile" Application! With regards to the Benchmark amps, I use two as monoblocks with the Jubilees. They are extremely quiet through these big horns. But honestly no more so than any of the First Watt amps I use - | |
| Using PA Speakers In A Home "Audiophile" Application! I suppose my Klipsch “Jubilees” (535 bass bin/402 horn) from their Pro Cinema catalog might be stretched to call a PA speaker. Although designed for active application I run mine with passive crossovers and Faital compression drivers on the 402 ho... | |
| Advantages with an outboard power supply — and another - LHY. Sold under the Jays Audio umbrella. Look to be well built and reasonably priced. I’m sending an inquiry for what model/voltage is recommended for the RME. | |
| Advantages with an outboard power supply All good information. Thanks Gents - |
