D amps I've tried a few of the Class D modules. The earlier Ucd, Hypex Ncore, the older Purifi 1ET400 pretty recently. The only audio brand/designer type I've tried was an Elac Alchemy DPA-2 a few years ago. Actually the Elac was the first "real" class D... | |
Help, my system seem to have slowly gotten " bright" My 1st thoughts were it has something to do with the speakers. Did you move or adjust your speakers recently? Move any of the surrounding furniture? I recently had issues with fatigue after messing with my speaker placement. That was an eye openin... | |
why expensive streamers I don't know why one streamer subjectively sounds better than another. From the reading & internet research I've done they should all transport the signal the same way. Bits are bits as "they" say. From personal experience, & that doesn't ... | |
My new B Stock speakers It's a great feeling when you buy a new piece of equipment and you actually like it... especially speakers. No idea why the phase difference with the test CD. Sounds like the Revel's are doing it right though. Congratulations on the new speakers. ... | |
Vacuum Tube preamp with my KRELL KAV 250a, a no no......WHY? I think the thing to consider is the DC offset or surge from the preamp. Turning the tube preamp on first & waiting a couple minutes to stabilize usually does the trick. Turning the preamp off last during shutdown of the system is also common ... | |
Youtube audiophile hi res sounds MUCH better than my Eversolo streamer If you go to Audiophile NBR Music channel he lists some contact info if any questions or requests. I think he has like 3 different music playing channels. Then there are channels like Best Acoustic Voices, SOUND HD, Lossless Quality Audio, & m... | |
Youtube audiophile hi res sounds MUCH better than my Eversolo streamer I am familiar with these YouTube videos. I actually play them a lot during the day as background music & have saved a few to my favorites. I run my TV thru a Dac into a 2.1ch system in my living room. When my dac gets the signal from YouTube t... | |
I need a recommendation on Class D amp Someone else already mentioned it & it was the first amp that came to mind after reading your post. Crown XLS Drivecore II. Single ended & Balanced. With pro connectors on the back of the amp they can be daisy chained to multiple amps. Can... | |
Could Class D really be that good? I definitely have no experience with op amps but believe in their ability to change a piece of equipments performance. After building the Nilai the first things that come to mind are wanting to upgrade the jacks along with internal dampening. The ... | |
Could Class D really be that good? @lanx0003 I have not listened to the Apollon but I had given it some research. Just on looks & the couple extra features & upgrades I would have preferred that model. But I really didn't need a new amp..was just curious about the newer Nil... | |
Could Class D really be that good? I can't speak on the newer chip amps but I purchased a Hypex Nilai recently. To me it is a step above the Ucd & Ncore's I tried briefly in the past. I purchased the DIY model and feel it is a great amp for the money. Subjectively speaking of t... | |
what's a good Gan / Class D option under 3k? Nilai or Ncorex500? I listened to the Orchard Gan amp at the last Florida audio show. Obviously I couldn't spend a lot of time with it and I was limited to only listening with his speaker set up. All I can say is that it's a very capable amp. Speed, clarity/detail, &... | |

can you help me narrow my speaker cables short list please? Check out Performance Audio. Scroll down to Custom Speaker Cables. They have a wide selection of colors & connectors. Go for the Canare 4S11G cable. They can build them for under $300 depending on your choices..but they will also sell you ever... | |
on the cheap I get what you are saying..it's not a device for me. My thoughts would be if you do a lot of Bluetooth to your stereo from your phone. I personally don't really use Bluetooth for my music listening or use storage devices. All my music is either st... |
