| Yamaha A-S2100 vs Technics SU-G700 I was debating between the Yamaha AS-1200 and the Technics SU-G-700 and I have read through this thread and can not believe how much audiophile "ignorance" goes on here. Yamaha presented a classic A/B amplifier with a torroidal transformer and sev... | |
| Peeking inside a Carver Crimson 275 Tube Amplifier I was debating between the Carver 275 with a Mcintosh C47 preamp or a McIntosh MA-252 Integrated hybrid. After reading this post, if the transformers are only 17 WPC each (I believe there are 3), that still only gets to 51 aggregate assuming they ... | |
| The Curious Case of the Technics Integrated Digital Amplifier I bought the SU-G700 in 12/2021 and it has been a surprise. ANdrew Robinson, who I respect greatly reviewed this integrated amp and was as surprised as I was on its attributes. I have several kits in my home and office and through 45 years of audi... | |

| Analyzing Balanced versus Unbalanced Amplifiers--Difference in sonic quality? Ghdprentice: Well stated. I reference the recent Stereophile (December, 2021) issue reviewing the Technics RU-1000 all digital amplifier and it truly is unique. Obviously, every electronic component will have a "sonic signature" regardless of its... | |

| Speakers recommendations for a Sony Japan golden era Hifi system I own a pair these 603 s2 Anniversary Editions and have coupled them with a REL t/7x in my 16' x 14' media room and these are ridiculously excellent. I have them paired to quality electronics for sure, but they punch far above their weight. Instea... | |
| Advise for new speakers for my basement exercise room Speaker sound is probably the most subjective ideal in the audiophile realm. If you like Mission 770s and the JBLs, then you seem to enjoy a deeper sound with a bass bias. My advise is to listen to a "brighter" speaker (B & W 603 s2 Anniversar... | |
| Technics SU-G700 Amplifier & B&W 705 S2 I currently run a SU-G700 with a set of B & W 603 S2 Anniversaries and with the 8ohm nominal power at 70 wpc and the 4 ohm load at 140 wpc, they get loud in a 16' X 15' foot room. The S2 Anniversaries are rated at 88.5 db so they're moderately... |
