| Forte 1A or Threshold 400A Mr. Decibel. I refurbished the DNA0.5 Deluxe myself. Here in Canada with exchange from Can To Us, it was too costly with shipping to made upgrades by SMC. Steve mentioned me that even if I redone all the solders on the main board, it would fail in... | |
| Forte 1A or Threshold 400A I heard great things about the Forte 4A. Nelson Pass doesn't seems to be in love with BJ1T outputs of these amps. | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 I want to do a followup about the amps I tried.I lived with the Monarchy SM-70 pair in balanced mode during the time it took to recap the McCormack DNA-0.5. There was near 30 caps to change on the main board and the output boards. I also changed t... | |
| How a pair of Mark Levinson ML2 stands with the best amps today ? Hi GeorgeDo you think they could drive speakers with 87 db/1m/1W sensitivity ?. They are 6 ohm load speakers. Thanks | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 I worked on the McCormack DNA 0,5 Deluxe yesterday and repaired it. One zener diode was shorted and two electrolytic caps were bulged with too much heat across them. I also redone all the solders on the main board because I didn't want to have the... | |
| Forte 4A vs Monarchy SM-70 (std model) in bridged mode Dill, can you describe me the differences you heard between the forte and the SM-70.Thanks | |
| Forte 4A vs Monarchy SM-70 (std model) in bridged mode I don't want to change themI need another amp to biamp my speakers. I have the choice to wait to find another SM-70 or buy a Forte 4A which seems to have a good reputation. | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 Wow Wow Wow ! I'm still amazed by these amps. I tried a lot of amps but these are really special for the price they cost. I would say they are the best compromise between tubes and solid state amps I tried. | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 After reading the instructions, I tried them in balanced bridged mode. WOW ! These marvelous amps take a step ahead from unbalanced to balanced mode. These amps are simply amazing amps. I took a chance and I'm really happy with the results I hav... | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 But I think you can't use balanced input when you use them in bridged mode. | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 I finally bought a pair of Monarchy SM70 class A amps. Presently I use them in bridged mode (70W) with my Morisson speakers. What a surprise ! Relax effortless sound, huge soundstage. I simply love what I hear. As they are pure class A, they heat ... | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 Some peoples mentionned that GAS Son of Ampzilla is a great amplifier. As my DNA 0.5 will be repaired this fall or winter, someone offered me an ultra clean GAS Son of Ampzilla recapped. As I need an amp soon I'm tempted if it is really an amp al... | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 Finally as the amp is super clean, I decided to keep the amp and seller lowered the price a lot ($307). I must say first that the amp had a problem when I bought it. I payed it accordingly because he also thought it was only a bad cap to replace. ... | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 Finally, this was the worst decision I made. I received the amp and I will perhaps never hear it. The protection circuit stays ON and the amp made smoke. Regulator mosfet toasted in the amp. I wtote to Steve McCormack and here is an answer I got: ... | |
| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 Finally, I'm waiting to receive a McCormack DNA 0.5 Deluxe. Since I read good things about McCormack stuff, I should be happy.with this amp. |
