| Tubes/SS Power Amps? Phaelon, Great idea, I think you're definitely on to something. I can't think of a better company to expand/perfect your concept and make it a reality than Atmasphere. I bet they could start brainstorming design possibilities Monday morning. It'll... | |
| Has the Oppo carried the AV industry? Swampypants, Looks like you've been hitting the Wild Turkey a bit early today; never seen anybody so drunk that they slurred their words while texting. Pace yourself or you're going to find yourself passed out face down in the swamp....again! I wi... | |
| Sunfire Cinema 7 replacement Stones/Don, Did you decide what you're going to do with your amp? Just curious, Tim | |
| Has the Oppo carried the AV industry? Avgoround, I don't want to misrepresent myself. Sorry, the original intention of my reply was just to pull your leg and yank your chain enough to ensure you got your panties in a bit of a bunch. I was just having a little fun and meant no harm. Ho... | |
| Tubes/SS Power Amps? Mapman, I'm using a lower cost class D amp ($630 ClassD Audio SDS440sc stereo amp rated at 440 watts@4ohms) than you are using but I still notice the same attributes that you described. When I turn up the volume the sound retains it's balance and ... | |
| Has the Oppo carried the AV industry? Avgoround, I think you should just breakdown and buy an OPPO. Instead of getting aggravated every time you hear or read users praising them, or when reading another gushing review, you could just smile, nod in satisfaction and say "damn right" or ... | |
| Found good & affordable amp for Magnepans System Update in regards to the similarity in soundstage perspective, even with different recordings and artists, that I had noticed in my original post on this thread: I replaced the 4 tubes in my preamp with fresh NOS Mullards a couple weeks ago... | |
| Tubes/SS Power Amps? Atmasphere, I'd be very interested in hearing your thoughts on class D amplification. Have you heard any of the newer class D amps in a good system? How do you think this new technology will affect the tube based amplifier business? I find it iro... | |
| Tubes/SS Power Amps? Orpheus10, I'm going to give you the advice that, I'm sure, many other readers of this thread are thinking of: If you want tube flavored sound without the heat of tubes and class A ss amps, you should try out a quality tubed preamp of your choice... | |
| Hypex Ncore NC1200 Amps at NY Audio Show in April Hifial, Sorry to take this thread temporarily off-track, but I wanted to make sure my earlier post was not offensive to you. I certainly don't believe that any of your show reports will be 'a load of crap'. I was just trying to make a point. My i... | |
| Hypex Ncore NC1200 Amps at NY Audio Show in April Hifial and Guido, Thanks for both of your clarifying posts, I now have a better understanding of class d's current status. You may have a tough task coming up, Hifial, but my suggestion is to just relax and enjoy the show. Even if your listening ... | |
| Hypex Ncore NC1200 Amps at NY Audio Show in April I'm really interested in Hifial's listening impressions of the various amps employing the Hypex 1200 modules. Guidocorona and Hifial, Just to set the stage, could you guys confirm my understanding of the current state of class d amps going into th... | |
| Best way to improve my Theater with $1500.00 Dcmlover, I think your B&K ref50 still holds up as a good processor if you're just going to setup a 5.1 system and don't want to use one of the newer codecs. Also, adding an OPPO (new 103 or 105, used 93 0r 95) is a very good move. I don't cu... | |
| DAC Listening Experiment Swamp, Yes, I remember those rollerblades you always tooled around on with just your speedo. Sorry, I called your speedo underpants on my earlier post. I'm glad to hear your speedo made it to the Smithsonian but, I'm a little confused, wasn't tha... | |
| Best way to improve my Theater with $1500.00 Dcmlover, On the other hand, sometimes you just have to say:"WTF", live a little and just go for it. I think Avgoround's suggestion of a front projection system (JVC?) is a good one. This would form an excellent basis of a very nice ht, especially... |
