| Your opinion on the evolution of amps since 70s? Solid sate, and tubes are not the only players in town. There are wonderful module driven amps on the market now, costing a fraction of ss and tube gear. | |
| Apogee Duetta Signature or Mini Grand? Treja, I have heard the Analysis ribbon speakers, in a rather awful room for dipoles. The Analysis speakers can go very loud, and not loose composure. They excel in detail, separation, and attack. The bass is not in the same league as that of the ... | |
| Apogee Duetta Signature or Mini Grand? Trejla, I can't agree with your Apogee adviser. Having owned both Stage, and Duetta, I can say, with full confidence, both can shake and bake.The Minigrand requires two amps. While it's low bass integration is not the equal of the Duetta's, the Mi... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? I know, I am repeating myself through various threads, but you guys should remember, there are always lots of new viewers with every "digital" thread. I would love to leave comments to others, but, despite the expanding numbers of comrades in Henr... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? Eldartford - you asked about why a large analog power supply might be beneficial, when a module is so efficient. An electronics engineer has explained it to me this way. The module must be fed energy on demand. Digital switching is one way of goin... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? AudiofankjSo are the pitfalls of a public forum. One might be talking one on one, but all can read. What I have been doing here is dueling with a respectable manufacturer on comparative amp topologies. I hate the idea I have to shut up when I am h... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? I agree, Tvad, except for the similarities. We are talking about amps here. They should be judged on how they sound. They say you can tell an amp by the company it keeps.FYI: The H2O Signature has been reviewed by 6Moons, and it has replaced admir... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? Ar t You still seem to be arguing your first point here. That is, given there is little difference between modular amps, the buyer should base their purchasing decision on, "Price, looks, support, features, and comfort level with the company that ... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? Mr. Bill,Linn makes fan cooled AB amps. That is not what we are talking about. A far cry from it, I would say. JR makes fine, very expensive, digital power supplied ICE amps. Before you can say they are the equal of the H2O, with it's big analog p... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? AR T, Sorry about getting testy. If I misread your intentions, you have my apologies. All I can say, is the listeners at my place, and other places, where we have tested a wide array of amps over time, it has been the differences in the new module... | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? AR T I have never sold a new amp in my life. You may have sold a lot of AB amps. I have heard a great deal more brands than you've sold. I have also heard a variety of module powered amps. They certainly do NOT stand on equal ground. I haven't hea... | |
| H2O Owner Survey ? Acoustic Reality's pricier amps are their 500A module amps, with an analog power supply. They are their best sounding amps, and are priced accordingly.Like I said before, if you want to know what the module in the box 1000 ASP amp sounds like, jus... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 oooohhhh yeah.... Yes, they are truth serum. They would have a party on vinyl . :) | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Well, I've heard the cables on various speakers, and in place of some awful good stuff, by MIT, Transparent, Shunyata, and Kimber. In every case, we all heard more detail, and extension. If the cable were noisy, how are we hearing fainter signals?... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Down under, does that mean you are Australian? With all due respect to all the above cable and amp comments, I have found my H2O Signature monos harmonize perfectly with the simplest of simple, Speltz Anti-Cables. I get great extension and sparkli... |
