| Audiophile Setup with an Iphone 7 I like the Chord Mojo DAC/amp. Reasonably affordable and top notch sound with headphones or even as DAC input to a high end system using a decent quality y-connector. I use mine with Iphone and IPAD (Apple lightening adapter required) as sour... | |
| Ray Thomas has Passed Yes I have been harping about the Hall and the Moody Blues for years. At least Ray THomas knew he had made it, if he even cared that much.For any act to still be relevant, honored, listened to 50 years after the fact is perhaps the greatest achiev... | |
| What modern TV is compatible with analog amplifier? Some TVs have analog audio output which can connect to any amp like a CD player, tuner or tape deck.If digital audio out only, then you need an outboard DAC as mentioned.Should not be a problem if done correctly. | |

| Article about us Audiophiles: 'Audiophilia Forever' chayro the article did a good job explaining why the gear was special, regardless of name. Plus New York has more folks than usual that might afford it problem being a lot of it is large and space usually at a premium there. Maybe those with homes... | |

| Article about us Audiophiles: 'Audiophilia Forever' Nice article. Very grounded in reality and many will relate especially the end where he proclaimed he could not afford it. :^) | |
| This is for Georgehifi especially but others can chime in. I would be looking at something like Bel Canto ref600m amps for top notch sound, bang for the buck, manageable size, and low power consumption/electric bills.I say that based on my current use (for several happy years now) of older ref1000m amps w... | |

| Benchmark AHB2 amplifier - what to expect? For background where I am coming from, the BEl Canto C5i in my smaller two channel family room system is probably the most neutral, airy, and transparent amp I have owned. It uses more recent generation IcePower modules, 60/w ch. More of the same ... | |
| Benchmark AHB2 amplifier - what to expect? BTW Kijanki congrats on your retirement. Now is the chance to do more of things you enjoy to engage the mind and body, like listening to great sounding great music, than perhaps before. Perhaps a little dance even here and there? | |
| Benchmark AHB2 amplifier - what to expect? Class D is not for those seeking a "warm" sound for sure, though my Dynaudio monitors tend to skew that way somewhat. In the limited time I had to listen, the Benchmark amp struck me similarly, ie not for those seeking a warm sounding amp. | |
| Benchmark AHB2 amplifier - what to expect? Correct. Did not mean to give that impression. | |
| Benchmark AHB2 amplifier - what to expect? Kijanki my recollection is the treble was very good and I did not notice any issues with high frequency "air". I suspect the Benchmark or alternately many good quality newer generation quality Class D amps in the last few years like those from Bel... | |
| Benchmark AHB2 amplifier - what to expect? It's a very good choice I'd say and one I would consider as well. Have heard it in BEnchmark room at shows with DAC 3 and liked it very much. |
