Class A 30 Watt Amps: Are they enough to drive my book shelfs? Hence, ‘headroom’. | |
Class A 30 Watt Amps: Are they enough to drive my book shelfs? The class of speaker is independent of the brand. | |
Class A 30 Watt Amps: Are they enough to drive my book shelfs? BTW- thanks for the previous thoughtful responses on this. | |
Class A 30 Watt Amps: Are they enough to drive my book shelfs? For those folks with experience listening to 30watt class A amps, how would the Pass Labs XA 30.5 compare sonically to the pass labs 150.5 A/B amp? Other than more power & better bass control (with the 150.5) is there a unique listening exper... | |
Will a Pass Labs XA 30.5 be able to drive enough bass for Kef 201/2 speakers? I saw that. Thanks Al - you always provide the best advice. Appreciate it! | |
Do I need to be weary about selling an amp and shipping to a PO Box Box? Is Pay Pal “secure funds”? | |
Did I buy a broken amp? Thanks guys. I think you are all right in the money. The speakers are very inefficient at 85/86 and it sounds like Wadia did not want to offer much headroom through their design for whatever reason. At 88 the unit is satisfying enough I suppose.... | |
Did I buy a broken amp? At 100/100 it is pretty loud for book shelf speakers but usually I expect that kind of loudness at 70/100 with unknown headroom beyond that. Perhaps it was the way it was designed. I’m just surprised that it seems barely audible at 40/100 volume ... | |

Which types of speakers are ideal against a wall? The subs need to go against the back wall too. Any idea if they would be more effective lined inside the speakers or outside the speakers? | |
Which types of speakers are ideal against a wall? Thanks Yetti & Elrod. I will explore those options. It would be interesting to see how much scale & depth I might be missing out on. | |
Which types of speakers are ideal against a wall? Thanks guys for all the input. I guess I will stick with the traditional audiophile speakers and place an absorber in the port. I’m curious if the port foam inserts are the same effectiveness as a sock? Can’t wait to try. | |
Any “value” competitor streamers vs Bluesound Node 2i? Has the $1500 to $2000 class of streamers from (say 5 years ago) fallen behind less expensive streamers of today with regards to advancements & improvements in technology and sound quality? Or has it been a relatively stable environment? | |
Unforgiving DAC or add Tube Preamp?? I have added a Modwright Tube Preamp LS100 to pair with the Benchmark HGC 2 Dac and the unit has definitly sweetened the sound. In the meantime I have been shopping different Dacs. As I am still in need of replacing the Apple TV (I am told weak l... |
