| Class D audio vs James Romeyn Spkrplus, I apologize for comparing my shade tree assembly of a pair of nC400 kits to your impressive build.I too heard a substantial ability to hear into my modest recordings just as your recording engineer customer compared to the linear solid s... | |
| Class D audio vs James Romeyn Good, you got it. I believe this is the very area were most reviewers and people doing a casual auditions unknowingly handicap the potential performance of many switching amplifiers. I found another worthwhile improvement from affordable NuForce s... | |
| Class D audio vs James Romeyn bakalovb I forgot to mention.I'm essentially using what Romeyn builds sans the casework and includes a version of the Hypex switch mode power supply. The two channel 200 watt ATI AT522NC ($1895. w/seven year transferable warranty) uses a Kessler d... | |
| Class D audio vs James Romeyn emb: D class will never be as good as A or a well done AB or a great tube amp.I understand your point of view. I use switching amplifiers yet I listen with tube amplifiers which is why I respond to statements like yours from time to time.I grew u... | |
| Best way to Crossover JL Audio F110 into system mgreen27 not at all. For anybody new to adding a sub there is so much room for dissatisfaction especially when so many products lack the adjustability to integrate well. | |
| Best way to Crossover JL Audio F110 into system But the odds are, the match will most likely end up sounding like a car stereo, and not a high end system. In rereading my above post I may have given the wrong impression of the F-113. I was able to integrate the JL very nicely into my system jus... | |
| Best way to Crossover JL Audio F110 into system I previously owned a Velodyne DD-18 and had an opportunity to compare a JL Audio F113 at home. Originally, I placed the DD-18 on a small moving dolly with a long interconnect and used the crawl test to initially locate the heavy sub.https://www.yo... | |
| Ayre V3 Owners Cringeworthy? I like the honesty in that statement. I recall hearing the V3 driving a pair of Avalon Acoustics Eidolons in the main room at the later dB Audio on Shattuck Avenue, Berkeley and commented to myself just how luscious that system soun... | |
| Boulder monoblock 2150 I believe the article stated the OEM and a custom made Audioquest power cable were used to power the amplifiers-. Both cables had a "standard" male plug which was plugged into the reviewers dedicated 20 amp circuit and the 30 amp connector at the ... | |
| Will a new sub sound better than my Velodyne F1200? +1 hgl3. I must confess to being a Velodyne whore beginning with their FSR 15 more recently the DD18 now using two DD 12 Plus'. But for now if adjusting the phase helped try switching the polarity. I have found some recordings with polarity diffe... | |
| Best Subwoofer Connection The only time I found it necessary to use my subwoofers high pass filter was when my main power amp was not powerful enough to drive the main speakers. Considering the many variables when adding a subwoofer system I would suggest you try both me... | |
| High Current Outlet for Amps? Your homes physical location on the utilities grid can result unique noise issues that may require specific filtering or regeneration. The same goes for RF issues.I found in my remodel that increasing the service amperage from 200 amp to 400 amp ... | |
| Tube Physics Question While my manufacture, Bob Carver, feels the KT 120s are a sonic improvement in his VTA180 design I've returned the KT 88s back into service while my 120s are collecting dust. There is definitely an audible difference between the tubes but nothing ... | |
| Tube Physics Question After giving us, and assuming the manufacture, the type and brand of your vacuum tubes is there a reason you don't mention the brand and model of your amplifier?You mentioned to the manufacture the edginess of the120 tubes and his response was not... | |
| Mesa Boogie Strategy 400 I had a 400+ Bass amp in a padded road case for many years. It replaced a Magnavox trannied Ampeg SVT/8-10" trunk which have since become desirable. After my DYI rig and the acoustic 360/361 the 80+ lb. SVT was boringly unflexible tone wise.I boug... |
