| Discussion of Class D Amps Application & Experiences The EP3.4 speakers are rated at 96.5db.....so let’s say that at your listening position it is 87.5db.....then 100 watts will give you 107.5db peaks. Do you listen louder than that?!? I hope not! So, do you really need 600 watts? Maybe you just nee... | |
| Discussion of Class D Amps Application & Experiences Front what I see the WFS Class D amps use older stock Icepower modules and just stick a fet front end on it. Very old school. Average, at best. Try Merrill ($16K+), AGD ($7.5K+), Megachino Cherry ($6.2K+), and EVS modded Purifi/Ncore 1200 ($2.4K-$... | |

Please listen yourself to the latest of TODAY's class D and see/hear for yourself.Check out this link where the guy says the Evaluator board am... | |
| Removing a ZERO from the price of amps How much is this latest LKV amp? The earlier version released last year was $8500 with NC500 modules....this is suppose to be better because of the Purifi modules and ?Over time?......How about now! Modified VTV mono block amps using highly tweak... | |
| Best amp options between $2k-$4 to power Magnepan 1.7? Then there is what EVS is doing now: 3000 watt power supply, 400 watts into 4 ohms.....totally tweaked to the hilt Purifi module amps.....mono blocks......$3500.....or a stereo amp with 1200 watt supply for $2500. http://tweakaudio.com/EVS-2/Pur... | |
| IcePower1200AS: Who has heard or has them, with what system components? Do you love them? The stock 1200AS stereo module is reviewed by Jerry at 10 audio.com.....this is what an IceEdge amps sounds like with junk AC inlet, stock fuses, and junk AC wire:http://www.10audio.com/mivera_1200as2.htm As you know......the $2200 dual mono amp y... | |
| Tekton speakers with Ribbon / AMT ?? Every implementation of ribbons, AMTs. beryllium tweeters, electrostats....etc. into infinity will sound different. You cannot listen to one speaker in one setup and think you know anything about tweeter technology. Even one piece of wire or sold... | |
| Tekton speakers with Ribbon / AMT ?? Tey look like regular domes to me. Who cares what brand....you are not going to change them out. | |
| Tekton speakers with Ribbon / AMT ?? Please, look at the pics of the Moab and above....they are all pure soft dome tweeters....not ring radiators......please look more closely. The cheaper speakers use various types....the Moab and above all use normal soft dome tweeters......Waveco... | |
| What isolation feet under your amp with great result? Sorbothane sounds like most very soft things....very soft sounding. Great back in 1985.....we've moved ahead light years. Some stay in the past and never try anything new.I like the $300 a set Mad Scientist the best at that price range. All foo... | |
| Tekton speakers with Ribbon / AMT ?? Personally, I would always go for a faster tweeter. The soft domes are great for the midrange....there are so many of them.....but treble requires the fastest driver you can get (ever heard an Ionovac...OMG) Remember, there is only one tweeter..... | |
| Removing a ZERO from the price of amps All the (good) companies that make the Purifi based amps use the same bones.....well, except the chassis.....which are all plain......but you might like one over the other. The insides are all the same.....1200 watt Hypex power supply, Purifi mod... | |
| Removing a ZERO from the price of amps I am glad you trust your ears. However, the March guy is a "nothing makes a difference except measurements" kind of guy. He argues against discrete op amps (those of us who listen know the OPA1612/LM4562 are good op amps but cannot compare SONICAL... | |
| Removing a ZERO from the price of amps The Audiosciencereview cult......he he...believes in measurements only. They don’t think anything else matters......you know...wire is wire....stock fuses are fine.....any kind of connector is ok.....who cares about resonances....etc. etc.I believ... | |
