| Purifi Class D: Junk? Class D amps are only current limited by the designer. You can make a super high current class D amp (you just need higher voltage rails and larger fast power supplies and maybe a couple more output transistors.....and great output coil). Class D ... | |
| The guru on fuses: Who cares what others say and do......that is their business. If you want to experience reality......then you need to have a direct experience. Talking about something is indirect.....it is meaningless. Only direct experience is real. If you want ... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? There are no such things as "copper resistors"....generally speaking. Both Nord and VTV use metal film resistors. Maybe you think the 3 polystyrene capacitors on the Nord board are "copper resistors"? You are once again mistaken. I wish people wer... | |
| The guru on fuses: When you point your finger at someone.....three are pointing back at you. We are all a mirror for each other. Please be kind. Love yourself more.....the more you love yourself....the more you love everyone. Do you want to be happy? Do you wan... | |
| The guru on fuses: Millions? Billions? Now who is over the top here?First generation master tapes on super modded tape machines running at high speed and double or quad speed DSD masters using the lastest tweakiest A/D and D/A converters are both very very close t... | |
| The guru on fuses: Did you not read? As I said, I did participate in some blind tests....and EVERYONE at the tests passed the test.....We all heard the same differences.....no one thought it sounded the same. I don’t need blind tests to tell differences....if you th... | |
| The guru on fuses: You have a few 10s of people who constantly go to forums like this one and let everyone know that 'whatever" is snake oil. These people are on a crusade to rid the world of snake oil. What is really interesting is that 10s of thousands of audiop... | |
| The guru on fuses: So, you have attended all blind fuse A/Bs in existence and they all had the same result? Generally, those that do blind testing do not trust themselves and already think there is no difference. Yes, I have done a couple of blind tests years ago ... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? Here is a comment from someone who bought the VTV buffer boards and installed them in his NC500 amp.....this is from the VTV website:"I purchased a pair of the VTV input buffer boards for my NC500amps using the Sparkos SS2590 opamps and WOW.I must... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? The Nord board is not better made and the VTV board has the exact same options as the Nord and VTV sells more op amp options. You can use any of the the op amps that Nord sells and more. There are no copper foil resistors on the VTV board......wha... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? The VTV input buffer board is pretty much the same as Nord's. However, VTV offers more op amp options and the amps cost less and have a 30 day money back in the US...............and you can buy their version of the Purifi evaluator amp for less t... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? As far as I know the only company not using a dedicated buffer for the input of the Purifi module is Mivera....they made a streamer last year that used just one gain stage between the DAC chip (1 volt out per phase AKM DAC chip) and the Purifi mod... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? The VTV amps use switching supplies and idle at something like 30 watts. If you have reasonable efficiency in your speakers you will not even use 100 watts on peaks. However, all transformers sound different from each other and most isolation tran... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? Example,i had not listened to the stereophile first test disc in 10 years. However, my system 10 ears later was more revealing than that older system except for the fact that the original system used super highly modified original Quad electrosta... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? And thank you for playing. However, the only thing worthwhile are subjective listening tests.......and they don't need to be blind. But, I value your incorrect opinion. I can remember how something sounded 10 years ago.....really! Some do not ... |
