| My Medium List of Amplifiers and my Personal Review of Each ! @willgolf ....That " other " amplifier thread you spoke about is gone. I have my thoughts as to why he ended it..............nice to see " affordable " amps being spoken about....My best ! MrD. | |
| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? We are all basing our opinions and experiences using " reproduced / recorded " music. As I have said many times, this alone, creates many challenges for us as listeners. It boils down to the specifics of what YOU want your favorite performers to s... | |
| When someone tells you it's a $40,000 amp, does it sound better? Getting back to amplifiers. For 50 years I have changed power cords on products to heavier gauge, and in one or two instances, converted to iec inlet ( not an easy thing to do with metal work ). Anyway, huge improvements every time. I am also very... | |
| When someone tells you it's a $40,000 amp, does it sound better? @unreceivedogma , I am not sure if you understand where I am coming from. On a post of mine on another thread, it was brought to my attention by another poster ( a great individual, imo ), stating that he read a statement from a poster on WBF ( a ... | |
| Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising? @jumia McIntosh preamps include line stages. I am sorry but, I do not get the question ? 😕 | |
| When someone tells you it's a $40,000 amp, does it sound better? @rbach , actually, you are clueless as to anything I spoke about. So, enjoy ! Always, MrD. | |
| Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising? Every amp I own, and have owned, is / has been rated to reach full power with less than 2 volts at the input. If you have a good 2 volts to work with, impedances are well matched, and the system caters to your desired volume level ( s ), when does... | |
| When someone tells you it's a $40,000 amp, does it sound better? The spending of big bucks is fine for those that can afford it. At one time, I sure did. But the unfortunate reality is, people are listening to equipment that can never achieve " live, unamplified " sound, of the musicians playing. And if you thi... | |
| Best Examples Of Cymbal Decays On A Recording Unfortunately (and the drummers should know this best ), recordings cannot capture / retain the sound of real drums, cymbals, high hats, etc. Recordings ( and the playback system ) fall short of reality. My modified and tweaked Lascalas are enjoya... | |

| Anyone ever use a Dynaco Quadadapter QDP-i This is known as the Hafler circuit, and there are many articles about the circuit, and the man, David Hafler, available to ponder. | |
| Try This With Your SS Amp Himalayan Salt Lamps. Not an imitation one.......Brings warmth to ss. 👍 | |
| High Quality Interconnects for Luxman L-590AXII @misternice , is that a monitor lizard you are holding ? | |
| Class D Amplification Announcement I do not believe the majority of " audiophiles " know how to listen to music, and are listening to the things that do not correspond to live, unamplified musical performances. Buying an amplifier, to make Nils Lofgren’s guitar ( from Keith Don’t G... | |
| Amp Internal Wire For years I have modified amps changing out the power cords ( non iec inlets ) to heavier gauge, speaker wire to the output posts, and in some cases, the low level signal wires. Always made a sq difference, usually for the better. Unless someone t... |
