| Let me end the Premp/Amplifier sound debate ... Audiophile meaning : Wikipedia : Is a person who is enthusiastic about high fidelity sound reproduction.

| Who actually heard the Infinity IRS? @klh007ย , I had that same system, including one of a number of MC step up devices, until you mentioning the Premier 5s ( did not like tube amp bass then, nor now ); of course I did not have the IRSV. I know someone here made it very clear that Pau... | |
| Who actually heard the Infinity IRS? And, the 2nd pair in production....... | |
| Please settle a bet! I am going to pretend I am an audio consultant ( retired ). As a music listener, what " musical characteristics " are you looking for ? Example : I own Klipsch Lascalas, tweaked and modified. They have the characteristics that are important to me.... | |

| klipsch cornwall iv upgraded crossovers I am a BIG proponent of damping horns, enclosures and woofer frames ( electronics as well ). A good YT video by the " The Boston Audiophile ", he shows you how he did his CW IVs, and it was based on my recommendation to him. I tried several crosso... | |
| Let me end the Premp/Amplifier sound debate ... @itsjustme, I made those specifics known on the 1st page of this thread, but unfortunately no one pays attention to me anymore.

| Cabinet resonance problem with Marantz MM9340 amplifier Do you feel you can pop the cover, and while it is powered on, determine if there is a particular area within the amp, the vibration is coming from ? If you can, I believe I can help you. Where are you located ( city ) ? According to the web, the ... | |
| Chip amps, not spoken about much, except on the diy sites. As stated by @jasonbourne52,ย the Topping PA5 is a chip amp, and since I have been listening, they are not just for low end systems. |
