Which amplifier to drive B&W Nautilus 802? I think you need an amp that puts out atleast 400 watts into 4 ohm load. Solid state, no tubes unless it's a real powerful one. | |
Audio Research 150.2 Class T Digital Amp I have concluded that, when one describes this amp. It is a description of the source component and pre-amp signature. I also believe the digital circuitry in this amp has the ability to "learn"- but this is only my opinion. I have made some chang... | |
Audio Research 150.2 Class T Digital Amp I own one now for a month, using in a 2ch system. Sounds laid back and warm and polite to me. No trace whatsover of any transistor harshness. I find the strong points to be in the mids and highs. The amp surely has a low damping factor. Don't get ... | |
Audioquest Dialectric-Bias System They never did open up on my system in the way that stranded designs have done for me. I passed them back to my friend that has quads. He also is not thrilled with their soundstage and hf presentation. Desribes them as recessed. Much of this is ve... | |
looking for a warm ss amp.... Audio Research 150.2- digital switching amp. | |
Audio Research pre amp question I have owned LS-25mk1's since they came out. Warm, musical, great soundstage- yet dynamic, transparent and detailed (with right tubes) all in the same package. Performs best when mated to an ARC amp. Will never sound solid state like when matched ... | |
Esoteric DV-50 vs. Accuphase DP-75V Hi, all you need is (1) set of (5) way binding posts on youramp. Use (1) cable with spades the other with banana plug.Take care. | |
Esoteric DV-50 vs. Accuphase DP-75V Oldlee- I have made a change that I now use full gain from my pre-amp. I use dynamic speakers- bi-wired. Use copper interconnects. Multi-solid core to mids-highs. But now use a copper/silver hybrid to woofers---- wooahhh!!! Perfect match for the D... | |
Esoteric DV-50 vs. Accuphase DP-75V Very interesting, you seam to have perhaps followed my posts over at AA about my experience. Teac should allow for a voltage trim for the two channel outputs in cd direct mode. The voltage trim thru the main menu will not keep it's setting when sw... | |
Esoteric DV-50 vs. Accuphase DP-75V About the DV-50- in audio- it is all about the driver that is controlling the hardware. A skilled driver will achieve A+ performance with the DV-50. An average driver will dismiss the player as "decent". | |
Audioquest Dialectric-Bias System Uh-oh- we have a problem here- on day number 9. Cables need no burn in???- not. Well the high's are still distortion free but-- they are MIA. The cable sounds absolutely muted to the point of a complete loss of soundstaging. They are out of the ru... | |
Upgrading Rega P9 + RB1000 Yhun- I have found away to reduce the lumpy bass to almost imperceptable levels with most LP's-- with the stock wire. I advise that you do not use the expressimo heavyweight. My listening has revealed the the low slung weight will increase the bas... | |
Upgrading Rega P9 + RB1000 Soldering direct to the stage is only for the most "adventureous". This past weekend I opened up the base plug and did the ground mod- this took care of the distortion in the highs. I am not looking foward to doing more surgery. Attaching a din to... | |
Upgrading Rega P9 + RB1000 I have the RB-1000. You must atleast disconnect the ground from the left channel lead and run a seperate ground wire. Also get the rega extra heavy weight (from rega) so you can place it closer to the arm pivot. That said, the arm is still comprom... | |
