Cheapest class D amp?
Tvad, I should have put a smiley on my last post to you. I hoped you didn't take offense. I like the city. I served my childhood in the basin. Why I am concentrating on class D, is that I believe there is more bang for the buck. MY friend is low o...

Thank you Plato.

Tvad, if only you lived nearby. Wait a minute, you live in Hollywood. Why don't you catch a private Lear to your State's capitol. Someone did that two days ago, just to hear my Scintillas.

Plato, do you suppose Flying Moles (why does that name remind me of SNL Smuckers routine) would work with 4 ohm speakers of dismally low impedance?

Drubin, good one. There is nothing now, but I will keep looking.

Tvad, have you ever heard the Rowland 201, or Nuforce? These two amps are way out of range for my friend, but they are what I am getting at. The Rowland is essentially an ICE module in a pretty box. There must be ordinary boxed ICE amps for a lot ...

Just got back from hearing an all Audio Note SET system. There was naturalness, and detail in spades.

Rapogee, what AN DACs have you tried? Maybe it's my hyper real amps and preamps that compensate for the lack of detail you report. I found a lot more detail in changing out my power amps than I ever did any CDP. I find tubed non oversampling to be...

You are right, Drubin. With this particular player, some material sounds first rate, like electronic music, and piano to a lesser degree. The highs have that same edginess that all over/sampling players have. The mids are cardboardy as well. It's ...

I have listened to a wide sample of over sampling CDPs, and DACs. None do service to the material imbedded on the CD. Even the cheapest AN or Consonance sound far more natural to me.

Simplify simplify. Get a non oversampler player. Any make will do for starters. I am using the cheap Consonance 120, for the time being. Although it lacks some of the bloom of tube varieties, it played the most realistic piano in the room on my Sc...

Yeah, Reno is a bit far, but who knows?
