| Aragon, Parasound or Bryston Hi dbphd, I have a combo 2-ch/HT 5.1 surround system currently using 4 class D and 1 class A/B amps in a 23'L x 16'W x 8'H carpeted living room . All amps are directly connected to the amps from the outputs of an Oppo-105 (used as a 2-ch pre-... | |
| Class D Technology randy-11, I believe the Benchmark ABH2 is considered a class H amp.Tim | |
| Class D Technology mitch2, My comments in my previous post were solely in response to savdllc's/David's post on 12/31.and were not directed at you at all. After reading your post and the review you linked to on the Mola-Mola class D preamp and amps, you are ... | |
| Class D Technology savdllc, You stated: " but if one is chasing greater efficiency than Class A without sacrificing as much fidelity as Class D tends to do, Class G and H amplifier tech would seem to be the best choice." This statement implies that class D ... | |
| Class D Technology seanheis, I thought that anyone wanting to learn more about class D amplification may want to hear from the horse's mouth,inventor of UcD (Universal class D) and the much newer NCore class D devices Bruno Putzey,, from interviews he has g... | |
| Magnepans hifidream, Congrats on choosing to drive your 20.1 Magnepans utilizing 2 class D Benchmark AHB2 amps (one for highs and one for lows with an active crossover). What a great combination! Excellent speakers driven by excellent amps, no wonde... | |
| Aragon, Parasound or Bryston energeezer, Yes, I've learned that class D has made big strides over the years but I never heard the early examples. My opinion of current good class D is that you give up nothing in the mids and treble to class A/B but gain better bass resp... | |
| Choosing Sub-woofers. Please advise ASAP. akg-ca, I enjoyed reading your post on the Vandersteen 2Wq sub system and I think it could be a very good bass system with a few modifications. I especially like the subs taking their signal from the main amp in order to better integrate the... | |
| Aragon, Parasound or Bryston energeezer, All 3 are very nice class A/B amps but I know from personal experience that a good class D stereo or monoblocks will give you better performance at a reduced cost, size, weight, heat and they'll consume significantly less electrici... | |
| Magnepans Hi natureboy, I understand your reservations about committing to a budget but I think you'll be glad you did since members can now offer more specific options knowing they'll be financially acceptable to you. I'm going to start with some ge... | |
| Magnepans stewart10722, Good point about this thread being useful for future browsers deciding on tube vs. ss for magnepans. I think this thread faded out due to the OP not staying involved and drifting away. A bit frustrating but no big deal.... | |
| Who would buy a Boulder 3050 amplifier? stevecham, Poignant but not pointless- very nice.Thanks, Tim | |
| Magnepans jhills, Very good useful info on your Rogue Cronus Magnum II tube integrated working so well on your 1.7s. It would probably drive the 1.7is equally well. The issue becomes whether natureboy's budget is sufficient to cover the cost f... | |
| Who would buy a Boulder 3050 amplifier? Pointless people, speeches, knives, needles and arrow tips can be a problem.Pointless audio blog threads, I believe, are not. | |
| Who would buy a Boulder 3050 amplifier? $195K for 2 450 lb mono-blocks each requiring its own 240-volt dedicated electric line and putting out 1,500 watts @ 8ohms operating completely in class A. Obviously no one at Boulder is a disciple of Aristotle or Plato who taught: "Modera... |
