| Nuforce STA200 Well, I might just be overly cautious. I need to spend more time with my STA200. I certainly am happy with it's sonics and it seems compatible with my PS Audio Digital Link III via the SYS. In addition to the speakers I mentioned earlier, I also h... | |
| beginner seperate system If you amp/speaker combination satisfies and you want to add tubes to the system then I suggest you purchase a tube amp that is compatible with your amps. I believe most any 2-channel preamp would be superior to usig a AVR as a pre. I currently ru... | |
| Nuforce STA200 Kalali, if my understanding is correct, because the voltage required to reach max output is low, sensitivity is high. Given the output voltage of most sources today, the sensitivity and gain of this amp would call for judicious use of the volume ... | |
| Nuforce STA200 This amp produces no more power into 4 ohms than into 8 ohms.Sensitivity is 0.45V for full output.Gain is 35dB.Very sensitive to source voltage and speaker load. At 51K ohms input impedance and the high input sensitivity a good candidate for a pas... | |
| beginner seperate system Sorry, meant to erase the last two statements leaving only the question. | |
| beginner seperate system Are you looking to replace the NAD amps or just needing a preamp? You have a pair to NAD 275s bridged and a speaker system (Focals and subs). Looking to add to this with a budget of 2K. | |
| Nuforce STA200 It obviously would provide greater options if one was wanting to make a change in speakers. Are you looking to make changes in your current system? | |
| beginner seperate system Why not search for a tube preamp? | |
| Nuforce STA200 I am a fan of 2-way monitors. Most rated at 6-8ohms that I am familiar with have an impedance dip below 4ohms somewhere usually at bass frequencies. I can't help thinking some caution need be applied when using a amp that provides 80wpc at 8ohms a... | |
| In line Attenuators with Passive Preamps Donvito, Yes, the SYS is worthy product at it's cost. I own one and am currently using it. Need not get beyond 10 o'clock position for loudness. Was thinking I might remove so much potenteometer from signal path.I believe I have over thought this ... | |
| In line Attenuators with Passive Preamps Tooblue, yes, you may be right, at least in some circumstances. There are 10dB attenuators. If someone has a digital source outputting 3V, a 10dB attenuator would, if my thinking is correct, reduce the output to ~1V (Have not done the math). One v... | |
| Nuforce STA200 Just received my STA200 and am playing it via a Schiit SYS. As to my earlier post today, my only concern was about power output not sound quality. My amp is a demo unit, however I have no idea about the number of hours use it has taken. Out of the... | |
| Nuforce STA200 The test was done into a 4 ohm load. Rated output was measured as 76wpc. Seems to me one might consider this amp as a 40wpc at 8ohm supplier. Did I miss something? | |
| Mac Mini as a music server I use a 2010 MAc Mini with Pure Music program. Output USB via Audiophellieo 2 with Pure Power into a Bryston BDA-1. Works fine for me. | |
| How is 'stereo' created by just one single stylus? I remember back in the 70s when quadraphonic receivers were being produced. My question to those considering such an approach was, 'How many sides does a record grove have?' Seemed to be way too much electronic processing for me. Sorry for the dri... |
