| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks Zaikesman, not that I'm aware of, except a cut short comparison trial at last year's New York Rave. I know there has been a lot of interest in Rowland ICE amps vs. H2O ICE amps. As the H2O gets around, we are seeing more feedback. BTW, The H2O wil... | |

| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks Baranyi, did you get your Scinnies? Paul is getting his re-ribboned Studio Grand back tomorrow. I'm taking my H2O Signatures over to his place. | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System At a recent audio party, we tried a half dozen digital cables between transport, and DAC. It was a blind test. We had: On one end of the scale was a cheapy, with the three RCAs, red white, and yellow. At the other end of the spectrum was a thousan... | |
| Pass X350.5 vs Rowland 302 Well, hello Guidocorona, Looking at the innards of the 302, it doesn't appear to be an analog power supply. I have heard, on good authority, it is not. However, I will graciously accept correction.http://www.jeffrowland.com/model302reviewHFR2002pg... | |
| Pass X350.5 vs Rowland 302 The Rowland is an ICE module based amp. It has plenty of power to run your speakers. IMHO the Pass has a better power supply, analog, rather than digital, as in the Rowland. Put the best of both together, and what do you have? an MH2O Signature, t... | |
| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks Just remember ICE amps like an active preamp. Choosing attending components becomes a delight for H2O owners. Preamps, for instance, will not be chosen to sooth, but to refine the final sound. | |
| Can the Manley Neoclassic 300B handle a 2 ohm load Loudandclear, Mondie's speakers dip down to 2 ohms. That is not SET territory. The question here has centered around that disparity. I just believe there are better ways than going with autoformers. | |
| Can the Manley Neoclassic 300B handle a 2 ohm load The H2O, reviewed here, is stable to at least 1 ohm, 76 db. I know. That is what my speakers are rated. The stereo version of the H2O sells for $2500. | |
| "High Current" Not just the old times. I love my 1 ohm speakers. It is comforting to know there are amps specifically designed to mate well with my speakers. | |
| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks Rpw, Hmmm, interesting. When the first prototype H2O arrived, I found it absolutely needed an EMF rejection cord to work properly. Since then, Henry has incorporated filter devices that reject such trash. With my new amps, I couldn't hear a differ... | |
| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks Henry calls his creation, "The Beast" He built it years ago. It has huge heat sinks, two farads of capacitance, and is fully class A. It provides rivers of current. | |
| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks Eldartford, the H2O has been compared with various Tripath amps, including the Bel Canto Evo Gen II with capacitor upgrades. The H2O was judged cleaner, more extended, more dynamic, and deeper. As one new H2O owner has said, "The H2O is the most a... | |
| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks Jayctoy,I had Pass Labs X600 monos, then eAR II. They are sold. | |
| Review: H2o Audio Signature Monoblocks I believe the Carver is a Tripath based amp, no? the H2O does not cost four times as much for nothing. Looking at the innards of the Carver, it reminds me of the PS Audio. The H2O chasis is packed tightly with power caps, and a 1kw transformer. No... |
