Class D is just Dandy! Two more questions regarding amplification modules:How different is the sound of a Hypex from the sound of an ICEpower? Do they have distinctive sonic differences?And how important (or not) is it to have a dual-mono (in a stereo single case) rathe... | |
Low output gain amplifier for ZU 101db Efficient speakers I own a pair of Zu Omen def with a Line Magnetic 219ia. This is an expensive amplifier, but even the cheaper ones (518 and 508) are excellent.Another good option is a relatively new amplifier from Hong Kong - KingKo Audio. The designer is a friend... | |
I Find Primalunas Ugly. How about You? Is there an alternative? @defiantboomerang,I strongly recommend you to go audition the Line Magnetic 219ia. Other models are also very good, but this one is the flagship and it produces a fabulous sound without a hint of noise. If you like it I can sell you one for far le... | |
Class D is just Dandy! Erik, and all the contributors,After having read this thread from top to bottom - lots of good information - my question is: Did someone compare the amplifiers from Class D Audio to the ones from Ghent Audio? Because most likely I will order one f... | |
Ghent Audio users Erik, that is a great thread, lots of information. Thanks. | |
Class D is just Dandy! Although I am the happy owner of a class A tube beast that weighs almost as much as me, I'm curious about class D amps. I'm not getting any younger and handling my amplifier by myself is becoming an impossible task. Not to mention the heat and the... | |
Long distance between preamp and power amp Thank you all for your inputs. I will definitely keep the amplifier, so the bottom line is I will run a good pair of RCA cables inside a shielded sleeve and under my floor - I believe I'll be safe from interferences. I work in a theater where we h... | |
Long distance between preamp and power amp As many of you say, maybe the distance is not an issue after all - as long as I use a good cable. My preamplifier is an old (and mint) McIntosh C712. | |
Long distance between preamp and power amp I considered replacing my amplifier, but since I love it so much (it's a Line Magnetic 219ia) and this situation will be temporary for 3 or 4 years (because then I will move again), I prefer to keep the amplifier and work out a solution around the... | |
Differences between Line Magnetic 518 and the 219 I own a 219ia and I bought it after many auditions comparing it to the 518ia and also the 508ia.I bought the 219 mainly because it was a very good deal (excellent value pre-owned).Regarding the sound, as mentioned before it's not that different fr... | |
Tube amp for Zu Omen I own a pair of Omen Def connected to a Line Magnetic 219ia - a fantastic marriage! Previous to this amplifier I was running a Cayin MT 45 Mk2 with very good results. When I bought the Cayin, the other option was a LM 216; I preferred the Cayin ov... | |
AC power supply for Nottingham Analogue Thank you all for your answers.After talking to a Nottingham Analogue salesman, I'm going to try the Pro-Ject Speed Box DS. It's a more affordable solution that is proven very good. | |
AC power supply for Nottingham Analogue I'll be more specific:So far I've been running my Spacedeck directly from the wall, never used a AC outboard. But I will move to a place where the power from the grid is not very stable and I read many good reviews about the Wave Mechanic and also... | |
Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 Nice to see this thread is still active. I finally pulled the trigger and brought my 219 home!I was about to buy a new one from the shop when I found out that a person I know was selling his. Living in my home for just a few days, here are my firs... | |
Line Magnetic 219ia vs Mc225 jkull,Congratulations and happy listenings!I haven't decided yet which model to buy - 508ia or 219ia - but will get one soon. I am also planning a visit to Line Magnetic factory, I'm very curious to see how they make these beauties (I live nearby)... |
