| Multichannel power amplifers VS 2 channel power amplifiers If the need is for more than 2 channels then that is the need. Now getting a multi channel amplifier that would serve well for 2-channel audio at that budget, not sure. One could focus on a quality 2 channel amplifier and use a AV receiver or lowe... | |
| A decent integrated amp under 2K ... @alaindexe That is true, and more so if it is one's only system. Does that Sugden really get that hot? Possibly are you looking for a better match with your speakers? I forgot the Belles Aria in my post as one I might consider. I think it ma... | |
| Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition @gochurchgo Have you checked out Aric Audio? | |
| A decent integrated amp under 2K ... I own 2 pairs. Tannoy Sterlings, Esoteric MG-10s. likely purchase another pair for this system. | |
| A decent integrated amp under 2K ... @alaindexe I am also looking for the same as described in your original post. I am considering the Rogue Sphink V3, AVA set 120, Vincent SV 500. Would also consider the Vincent SV 200 however likely would need more power. Not in any hurry might sc... | |
| Your Favorite Sounding Power Amp, $5000 US Retail max. Based on my limited wisdom aquired from my audio experiences and interactions on this forum, I believe it depends on the speaker being driven. | |
| Integrated vs. Separates on a Budget Seems to me that there are many more integrated amplifiers with built in DACs than phonostages. Since you are going to try out the Mani (which I believe would be a good mate to your TT) and are considering the purchase of the Node which has an onb... | |
| Integrated Amp ca $2000 with streaming, DAC, phono stage +1 stereo5. If I was looking for a single box solution on a budget a used Halo would be on my short list. May go that route for my living room system. I believe there is one for sale here on AG. | |
| Should We Prioritize Detail In Our Assessment Of Audio Quality? +1 MC on deffinition of detail. Perseptions differ. +1 jjss49. i still have much to learn regarding criterion. There is much that is left out in what some consider detail. For each note an articulate attact is a start, the harmonic overtones pr... | |
| Advice regarding streaming please. To be quite definative, it depends. For many streaming is the primary source. If that is so then I would think the streaming device quality should be conmensurate with downstream equipment. +1 daledeee1, based on my having followed threads her... | |
| RIP oregonpapa So many wonderful thoughts herein. Thanks Frank for being such a great forum contributor. Wish I knew you in the 'outside' world. | |
| Why recordings made before 1965 sound better. Great thread. Seems to boil down to simple vs. overdone recording/processing and tube vs. SS equipment. The switch to SS probably mandated by the recording/processing complexity. | |
| Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money? Get rid of TV, keep supermodel, trade sonic reflextion for difusion. | |
| Tannoy Stirlings on the way! +1 pehare. Thanks muveling. | |
| Preamp differential tube gain (12 db gain) - whats this mean? Which preamp are you talking about? My experience with digital front end is that 12 dB is compatible with most amplifiers unless they have input sensitivity much lower than 1V. As per the one replaced by oddiofyl, many have too much gain which is... |
