| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 Gmood1, As I look closer at Johngalt47 reply I noticed that he wasnt even sure of the model number of the adcom.I stand corrected.ELdartford, I was looking over your past threads and my wife looks over at me and says what is so funny. I like your ... | |
| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 Didnt realize i picked such a touchy subject. LOLGmood1, I really think Johngalt47 was just stating his real life comparison between the two. And he stated he wasnt sure if the amp or if other components are what made the the biggest difference. A... | |
| Audible Illusions Modulus 3A problems Johnatmc99, I have a 1995 AI L-1 and it is as quiet as a church mouse. Maybe just defective units or a very uncommon amount of dust in the environment. AS far as the original post i would just give Jerry a call. | |
| Matching preamp to amp I happen to come across some literature on the Audible Illusions L-1/3A preamps with output impedance of 1.2 kohms. Art Ferris designed them with tubes in parallel (thus halving their impedance),utilizing low-capacitance potentiometers,and increas... | |
| Matching preamp to amp Wonder if that is how the Audible Illusions L-1 and the Aragon 4004 MKII seem to mate so well? It surely cant be impedance because the Aragon is 22kohms where as the Audible Illusions is 1.2kohms which is in the lower limits of what is recommended... | |
| Aragon 4004II vs 8008st The 8008st uses a single "dual wound" transformer for the power supply where as the 4004 mk II uses seperate transformers(dual mono design). The 8008 series also uses a DC servo circuit for flat operation down to 5 hz. I agree with you i like the ... | |
| Which basic amps can drive 1 ohm loads ? Aragons will drive Apogees. Aragons will drive virtually anything but thats really not a secret. | |
| Aragon 4004mkII vs 8008BB We all share in your enthusiasm and enjoyment Prpixel. But dont forget that is just an opinion. As Bigtee was not able to warm up to the 8008 it might surprise you to learn that the founder of aragon still chooses his 4004mk II in his 2 channel sy... | |
| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 Didnt really mean that in a bad way CLbeanz. I think i understand what you are saying. The adcom gear is recognized to the extent that bose is. So you think that the adcom 5500 is a better amplifier to run head to head against an aragon 4004mkII? ... | |
| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 Like Bose? Have you gone absolutely mad? | |
| AI L1 sound better than AI M3? Just curious Johnk, what was the price of your Art Audio preamp? Thanks. | |
| Need some audiogon expertise Marakanetz, The frequency response is specified in the manual and it is within 1dB from 2 to 100khz. So i do believe it has the audible range covered. The preamp seems to be working perfectly absolutely dead quiet. Music comes out of the blackness... | |
| Need some audiogon expertise Gunbei, thanks for the advice. I was looking at my audible illuions L-1 manual and it states that the output impedance is 1.2Kohm. The aragon 4004 mkII does have an input impedance of 22Kohm. This tells me i am on the low side of the of the guidli... | |
| Need some audiogon expertise Newbee, I do notice quite an improvement with volume. I think you make a very good point. I use to own very efficent speakers which didnt take much volume at all to get them playing very dynamic. Then i moved to a more warm speaker that took lots ... | |
| Need some audiogon expertise Nrchy, thanks for the recommendation and the confidence in the equipment matching. I will take a look at the site. Gunbei, the dynamics of my system sound great to me. The instruments are sounding as they should. I am getting a nice wide soundstag... |
