| best amp for BASS Not a big fan of Krell, but the bass on those amplifiers rule no question. We ran a real muddy pair of Kef Reference Model 2's with a small Krell amp. That amp did wonders for the bottom end of a pair of speakers that used a crappy bandpass config... | |
| Wadia upgrade - Levinson or Naim? Ive owned the 390S which is a very nice player. But it sure isnt an upgrade from ANY Wadia product. The 830 I feel is a bit thin sounding and starting to show its age.A 301 in itself is a pretty big upgrade, but I would try an 861 or an 861se if y... | |
| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 Im not an engineer by any means but I kinda thought that ALL products have to have feedback of some kind. But Ive been in arguments in the past where people are telling me their products sound "superior" due to 0 feedback, and that they can "hear"... | |
| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 Yeah, this is driving me nuts. A friend of mine was nice enough to drop off his Pass Labs X350 amp again to compare to my Aragon Palladium monoblocks. Both put out very similiar power regardless of impedance, both are practically identical in SQ t... | |
| Proac 3.8 or Sonus Faber Cremona Go with the subwoofer approach. If you love your monitors and want more bottom end definetion and full range sound, doing a pair of subs like the Vandy 2wq's or Revel B15's is the way to go. The Revel B15 is probably the absolute best musical subw... | |
| Carver Power Amps Dalton, though Im glad to see your excited, I do have to say that just cranking the volume isnt a sure fire way to say ones better than the next, though Im sure its good for your own experimentation, others may find it a bit lacking! =) Did you kn... | |
| Pre/power Amp Advice Pass Labs, Mmmmmmmmmmm! Id actually go with the Basic X2.5 and a pair of Used Aleph monoblocks if you can find em. Either that or wait for the new XA160. | |
| Is there any obvious advantage for monoblocks? CHannel seperation for one. You would be limited now by the source. Great for imaging no question. If you even have the luxury of having 2 dedicated 20 amp circuits, that can also be a small sonic benefit for maximising juice per amplifier. If you... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Mural: Ill agree here. Ive got a computer drive that has a nice signal output, going into a great pair of headphones with a good quality headphone amp is an enjoyment to say the least. | |
| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 Hmmm, Im gonna have to start a new thread on feedback. 0 feedback designs, and if 0 feedback is necessary onlly in the source if using xlr's or the opposite etc. | |
| Carver Power Amps Errivera: Wasnt actually ever reffering to you. My posts were towards Paulwp and Danvetc. Just a heads up.Dalton: SO you went with the Parasound eh? Was I dead nuts on describing it accurately sonically and physically? Enjoy it, and make sure it s... | |
| Carver Power Amps Paulwp: Actually, your the one not listening. That amplifier has already been tested. And it didnt put out anywhere near its rated output of 380 wpc. Here is how Carver them selves rates the amp: "Two channel power amplifier; THX Certified; 380 wa... | |
| Carver Power Amps Paul, a Radioshack SPL meter is a really crude tool at best and is nowhere near a flat reading response. It requires a few mods just to get it to within +/- 3db which is still in my opinion very crude at best. But to the subject, from many sources... | |
| Any Levinson owners/critics out there? [img]http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid86/pea4118910a3eceb316c54292e1dcb12a/fab0216b.jpg [/img][img]http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid86/pcbeb237b079955c8ff79b992f0398991/fab02175.jpg [/img] Ive owned a few 3 series ML amps. Good stu... | |
| Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2 I got a question for all of you on feedback. Some people say they can hear feedback in amps, others say they cant. What does negative feedback soundlike? Background noise? I know my cd player is a 0 feedback design, and I run all balanced xlr conn... |
