| Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers. I’m sure you will enjoy the amps Glen, I believe you could use the Sansui with no issues except you will need to short pins 1 & 3 per the Atma manual (see below)"If you use the RCA input connector, make sure a shorting jumper is installed betw... | |
| Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers. it doesn’t support the balanced standard Hi Ralph, good to see you chimed in.Just for education purposes when you say it doesn’t support the standard do you mean "it is not differential", aka duplicate stages + and -?Hope you are doing well | |
| Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers. Keep in mind the m60 have 8 power tubes vs 14 on the ma1 so you are accounting for 60 percent or so of the ma1 power, which is IMO sufficient Ask Ralph Karsten of atmasphere about your speakers, pre etc he is very helpful even on used equipment, m... | |
| Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers. Thank you, I asked because I can't comment on the 300B SET as I haven't had a chance to compare one on my system, I have a PSET in which I tried many different tubes combinations (not 300B) and when it starts clipping and distorting is not very pl... | |
| Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers. I personally was thinking mainly on impedance more than in sensitivity terms, you are correct impedance is big part of it, most of klipsch is usually 8 ohm nominal and above 93 sensitivity, I have P37f as secondary speakers and very easy to drive ... | |
| Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers. I believe you should have no problems running the M60s with the Klipsch line, if you are coming from the SET world where typically you manage less power than what this OTL can offer you should be fine. Yes you could run the amp removing tubes but ... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Outstanding room and rig indeed Thank you, it is actually a lazy rig, I have several problems, one is the wife doesn't want dual racks so I can put my turntable in, another one is the wife won't allow a fixed coach / chair on the sweet spot, so ... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Hi Tim:Thank you for the kind words, I'm trying to learn and as you stated Duke and Jim are a good source of unbiased data, they of course are in the business but they provide good advise even if sometimes goes against the actual product they are ... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? DEQX is the other method I considered to integrate everything but since I can do most of the correction analogue and since I am not personally interested in a complete flat room response I put the correction aside for the time being | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Would you mind describing your setup and the AudioKinesis gear used? Tyray: I happen to own also Audiokinesis Azel's speakers, to be honest I was shopping around for speakers not subs and found Duke (and Jim Romeyn) at RMAF 2018 (or 17?) and fr... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Thank you Tim for adding details | |

| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? @noble100 I found the same with my 4 AK subs, without the port plugs they sound very good so the sealed vs vented sub dilemma I have a feeling it depends on other things, maybe the dimensions (length and diameter) of the port in proportion to the ... | |
| Level mismatch in speakers when using tube amp This is an interesting topic and I had an answer from the beginning on a possible issue. I owned the as2100 always wanted the as3000, excellent SS amp, beautiful looking, anyway I think the root of your issue could have been an impedance mismatch,... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? BTW my custom is Duke's (Audiokinesis) Swarm not "custom made by me" I used the term custom because you could customize the amount of subs, amps etc. when purchasing from AudiokinesisDuke always suggested the benefits of increasing the amount of s... |
