| Amplifier for Khama Mini Exquisite @steakster Cool. I’ll check it out. I actually have these amps. | |
| Amplifier for Khama Mini Exquisite @shkong78 Exactly! I have heard most people say that they detect no reduction in transparency. It’s hard for me to believe… But I guess I’ll find out. Those karma speakers are incredibly transparent! Thanks! | |
| New Generation Class D - AGD Audion Mkiii upgrade BTW - I in no way think of the Audions as having tubes. I would be fine if the “glass envelopes” were opaque. I don’t really like that they glow with LED’s. But I am willing to overlook all of that further sound, and the convenience of the upgra... | |
| New Generation Class D - AGD Audion Mkiii upgrade I had both the Audion II’s and the Atmasphere Class D’s at the same time and preferred the Audions. They are fast, neutral, delicate, well balanced and have a very black background. I found the Atmas to have a bit of graininess in the upper mids.... | |
| Amplifier for Khama Mini Exquisite I just purchased a JL Audio CR-1 active crossover and plan to try trying the XA-25 from 100hz up combined with my swarm subwoofer system. | |
| Fyne F703...anyone owns the ? I am very impressed with the F703’s. They are quite lively and engaging with articulate base. A little bit forward in the upper mids, but not annoyingly so. I have not yet tried to tune them in, and I’m also planning on trying some Hijiri cables i... | |
| What affects front to back depth in room/ system? I think you should start with some basic treatments, the simple stuff that is unlikely to change. Diffusion on the rear wall, absorption on the side walls, absorption on the ceiling absorption behind you. Then report back on how that affects, your... | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a @sumaato Thanks for that. I am definitely interested in trying out the quad amplifiers. | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a @dekay I don't know for sure that there would be hum with RCA connections. There has been in the past, with different equipment. I know that it is absolutely silent with all the balanced amps I've used, and I don't like to have any background no... | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a @dekay in my experience, a balanced cable has been useful and eliminating or reducing hum that I get with a RCA cable. Because I want absolutely no hum in the bedroom, that’s why I would go with balanced. But these amps are inexpensive enough that... | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a @dekay I'm not sure if this is a bonehead idea, but I'm curious whether the Quads can be bridged into monoblocks and whether bridging can be used to convert them to balanced. | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a @mijostyn I'm currently using a KEF KC62. To quote the promo "it’s connection options allow it to be used with almost any audio system, with KEF SmartConnect and speaker level inputs eliminating any connection issues. Line output with High Pass F... | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a Thanks All. I agree that a Class A amplifier left on 24/7 under my bed is a bad idea! The bedroom is small, and mostly I'm trying to TAME bass nodes. That's a benefit of the Weiss 501 - I am able to use the built in DSP for that purpose. With ... | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a @celtic66 thank you for your input. I noticed that several of the Sudgen amplifiers do have balanced inputs… But seem maybe either too big for my bedroom or not powerful enough for the speakers in question. The reason I gravitate towards balanced... | |
| Best Amplifier for LS3/5a @rdschicago Thanks for the suggestion. I like the fact that it's balanced and that VTV offers a 30-day audition. I'm not intimidated by it being Class D - because my current amp (AGD Audion) is Ganfet Class D. I think that the AGD is an amazi... |
