| Best Class A Amp under $2,000 used? puffbojie --What’s the reason for your inkling towards class A amplifiers? I’m not trying to discourage you, but going for a pure class A amp (i.e.: which rules out high bias or class A to A/B shift designs) - with the potential and worthwhile son... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! It would seem many here hold their own share of beliefs and agendas either in favor of or against Class-D for a variety of reasons - certainly predictable and all too common to have some sort of investment in a particular design principle, sometim... | |
| David Belles / Power Modules Inc. JohnnyR -- A reply to my comment above? | |
| David Belles / Power Modules Inc. Check out the New Belles SA 100audioconnection --Is there a "new" SA-100 having just surfaced, or are you simply referring to the SA-100 that’s been on the market for almost 4 years now?Using the class-A version myself, the SA-30 - a wonderful pow... | |
| Why are Harbeth speakers expensive while its drivers are not. From what I can assess very expensive drive units aren't necessarily more than that: very expensive. I'm not saying they're incapable, but quality drivers can be made for much less (why then spend more?), and implementation is key. It seems to me ... | |
| LaScalla "horn" sound compared to "maggie" sound abnerjack --The potential of the LaScala’s is relative to a combination of factors which may deter somewhat from your present situation. A significant impact is your first listen which, as you already proposed, would take place in different surrou... | |
| Warm-up time for amps and preamps There is absolutely no reason why running without input signal would be bad for any class D amp. This strange advice was given by NuForce technician? Are they still in business?I believe the above rests on a misconception; it is advised by NuFor... | |
| Why pay so much for super high end? The thing about the waves off the back of the driver is that they have an output that is equal to the output into your room. The usual way to deal with that is add MDF bracing upon bracing which adds weight and more weight which lowers the reson... | |
| Why pay so much for super high end? Vivid Audio has shaped their drivers which is perhaps more important then shaping the cabinets. The drivers are designed to allow the back waves to flow more freely past the magnet and spider towards the dampening. Looking at most drivers even on ... | |
| Why pay so much for super high end? I like MAGICO all there high end lines Q,M3 etc use there own drivers which are much better than Seas,Scan Speak or Accuton they sound much better as well.In the end you get what you pay for.It's all about the implementation. It's the same tune of... | |
| Why So Many Raidho Speaker For Sale? Cheap Chinese cabinets. As for overpricing, since there are a lot of people who don’t earn but make a lot of money, why not try and cash in, Danes and others think ? They play ’the stupid and ignorant’ card, and often it works. Besides, Europeans ... | |
| Loudspeakers have we really made that much progress since the 1930s? One reason for that sal is that Art doesn’t consider "vowel colorations" (as J. Gordon Holt coined them) particularly bothersome, or very high on his list of priorities in a loudspeaker. I couldn’t disagree more. The first good loudspeaker in th... | |
| Loudspeakers have we really made that much progress since the 1930s? [...] I wish that there were more current makers that are interested in the old-school sound that I like, other than the few makers of ultra expensive and massive systems like those using ALE, Cogent and Goto drivers.Exactly my thought as well; a ... | |
| Why do so few low power amplifiers using 300B have balanced inputs? Most designers think that there is no point to adding a balanced input to such an amplifier.What would be the point? | |
| Loudspeakers have we really made that much progress since the 1930s? You are correct, this shows a lot of experience in being rude.... That’s the point... telling people that they don’t count.... opinions without supporting experience is just noise. Read through the post, enough was said... I’d say the point is tha... |
