| Something For The Fuse Guys ... @pragmasiYou might find here that there is an direct relationship between the amount of conjecture that goes into promoting a product and the likelihood of a dissenting view being accepted by the promoters.Also that self-proclaimed theoretical phy... | |
| Time to buy a class D amp? LOL....not hifi..... Tell all the reviewers including Stereophile that have done positive reviews of various Class D amps that. Not to mention the users like me.I get it. We're all obsessed with something. Some are obsessed with Class D not bei... | |
| Tubes or not Any mhdt tube DAC (NOS) should fit the bill of providing a sound different than your current DAC that you might like better.I use a mhdt Constantine (SS DAC) still in my main system. It's been there happily for several years. I had both that an... | |
| What is wrong here.. on Audiogon? Your question about specific gear can only really be answered in a meaningful way by those few that are actually familiar with the Pass gear whereas any shmo can offer an opinion about VU meters. You’ll find any topics based purely on conjecture t... | |
| What type of Amp for Ohm Walsh F-5015s? @michiganbuckeyeOne qualification on my above post needed for teh f5015 case specifically is that I believe the f5015 has no subwoofer crossover controls on board in which case the crossover has to be done upstream somewhere and those particular a... | |
| What type of Amp for Ohm Walsh F-5015s? With separates, just keep in mind that every combo of amp and pre-amp will sound different as well. Tube or no tube. The key attribute normally for the amp with at least any fully passive Ohms for best performance is high current delivery and damp... | |
| What type of Amp for Ohm Walsh F-5015s? They will sound different with different amps. I'd say both of my current Ohm Walsh speaker pairs are neutral sounding. I have Ohm F5 series 3, which are similar to yours but one generation older model and no built in subs. The 4 3 way level... | |
| Time to buy a class D amp? FWIW I’ve run a bunch of Class D amps over the last several years all the time and no tweeter meltdowns. In fact 0 issues and they even tend to be the quietest amps ever. Never a sound other than what’s playing. I even leave them on most of the ti... | |
| Time to buy a class D amp? I run a BEl Canto C5i true-digital Class D integrated amp in a smaller system that would seem to fit your bill. Detail and resolution is top notch and never fatiguing. "Smoothest" sounding amp I have ever owned by far. Only 60 w/ch 8 ohm, enough t... | |
| Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following @jsautter Yes, I always find it hard to land on just a single pair of speakers. I have 7 pair in 7 rooms currently. I like to hear different things. Maybe I’m always afraid I’m missing something. :^) The Ohm Walsh are still my go tos. I did think ... | |
| Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following @pdreher That description jives with my 40.2 listening experience. Very "organic". I wish I could have stayed and listened longer. | |
| What type of Amp for Ohm Walsh F-5015s? Those two recommemded amps are probably available from reputable online dealers with a good return policy if needed. Checkout Crutchfield, Audio Advisor etc. Maybe others can suggest one. | |
| What type of Amp for Ohm Walsh F-5015s? I’d go with one of the OHM recommended amps to make sure it has what is needed for that particular model. Which is best for you will depend largely on your personal preference ie aesthetics, size, other features, etc. | |
| Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following @twoleftears So in your assessment, is the 40.2 just more of the 30.2 but both are similar sound-wise?What is it about the SHL5 that is different?Thanks. |
