| You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss I’d like to see Pass do a Class D amp. I need lots of drive and I like smaller easier to manage packages. Of course lower cost is better than higher for me like most as well. 😉 | |
| Discussion of Class D Amps Application & Experiences I had the ARC sp16 prior to the Class D amp and have had that combo for ~10 years now and still content. Next pre-amp will probably be SS. Maybe a Benchmark pre/DAC device is what I am thinking currently. Arc sp16 has a nice basic function remote. | |
| Perfect Path Total Contact no longer? Our neighborhood had a virtual happy hour with social distancing outside in one of the courts the other weekend. Very nice! Distance makes the heart grow fonder as they say. Don’t fink on me now! | |
| Perfect Path Total Contact no longer? OP I went to Grad school in Western Kentucky. Lived there for 2 years. One year in a trailer park with $75 rent living on 5 pound blocks of cheese. It’s a wonderful place to be in many ways, even more so probably these days. I think you would ... | |
| Perfect Path Total Contact no longer? Ironically, if one want’s to be mostly free, the only practical approach is to isolate yourself off-the-grid in a cabin in the woods somewhere. Lots of people do it. I saw it on TV. Interesting stuff. Gotta figure a way to run my hifi there tho... | |
| Discussion of Class D Amps Application & Experiences Some class D amps are extremely boring, some are bass shy (usually older units) and others sound extremely musical (mostly newer units).Of course the same could be said about any amp design type in general.That’s why it’s best to not generalize. N... | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? Maybe Trump will eventually understand and publicly acknowledge that ability to test more including the asymptomatic is the only option to get things back to "normal" other than social distancing. Hunches and wishful thinking will not cut it. Ca... | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? Bacon tastes good. | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? Apparently the dummy in Georgia cannot and the dummy in the White House is OK with that. | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? Now let’s see if the dummies can learn new things when needed or continue to make the same mistakes. | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? Yup this is what happens with dummies in charge. At least dummies in regards to things other than making money. Also dummies who think they know better than experts. | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? All diseases start somewhere but only this one was allowed to impact us to this degree because someone was asleep at at the wheel and still feeling drowsy months later from the sound of it. Hint: it’s not Sleepy Joe. | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? Thanks @mahgister glad someone got the reference and not surprised you did. | |
| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? On the bright side, if we are suddenly invaded by otherwise invincible Martians, they wouldn’t even last two minutes these days. | |
| Discussion of Class D Amps Application & Experiences I use power conditioning with all my gear but not the amps. No need. They are dead quiet with delicate detail. Not an issue with a good Class D design these days I find. The ref1000ms do draw a lot of current at power up so there is that to consid... |
