| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp "Anyone is free to purchase gear from Odyssey, but I think it is fair to give balanced opinions with both positive and negative EXPERIENCE for all potential audiophiles to look over before they make a purchase." That type of discourse in an absolu... | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp This will be the third time, that I’ve mentioned my regrets, for having repeated what two articles mentioned, regarding the Stratus' output specs(NOT CURRENT CONSUMPTION), without having substantiated the claims(whether correct or not). AND- I was... | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp To those here: I have nothing against anyone’s equipment. I just take issue with the sort that make unsubstantiated claims, like, "....you’d get better sound...", never having heard, or compared, the pertinent components. Again: class of operation... | |
| Crossover upgrade for new speakers? OP- Some component suppliers(ie: Michael Percy, if he's still around), will custom match capacitors and resistors, to within 1% of one another's values, for a small uptick in price. Such details can tighten channel balance, if one is so concer... | |
| Crossover upgrade for new speakers? @scratcha- I replaced every crappy surface-mount electrolytic, in my TacT Audio 2.2X preamp recently, with either Elna Silmic II or Nichicon’s FG(Fine Gold "muse") caps (analog input and two analog output modules, ADC/DACs, motherboard & power... | |

| Phase Inversion, to flip polarity or not I’ve been told, my guitar playing causes rarefaction(sucks). Reversing the strings, end to end, didn’t help. | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp Anyone interested in returning to the subject of this thread(WITHOUT the spin)? ie: ’Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt’s "Vidar" amp’. NOT amps strapped/bridged mono or a chassis with extra holes, but- a stereo amp, with a ... | |
| Phase Inversion, to flip polarity or not Don’t have anything against the rest of the propositions Kosst offered, but- regarding the physics: ".....decompressing air certainly has its limits. No matter how fast the cone moves, it can never create less than 0 psi of pressure......" Ever he... | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp "Your are incorrect and delusional"? Nah! Just repeated something I shouldn’t have. "How’s $1,000.00 for a preamp, another $1,000.00 for a (150Wpc) amp (the first 35 watts are pure class A)...The sound was excellent with outstanding ability to go ... | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp @georgehifi - Thinking about it; I’ve been challenging you, regarding personal experience and assumptions. The specs that I quoted, were from one article, then repeated in another, neither author of with whom I’ve had any personal contact/experien... | |
| Let's roll: what pre-amp tubes should I consider next? Sure as hell is! As many times as I've been to his site, I never paid attention to his header. Thanks for the correction, Tom. | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp OP: Odyssey= 20 year warranty(which covers the second owner) and 30 day satisfaction guarantee. Hard to go wrong! Happy listening! | |
| Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp Those figures were the result of bench-testing, in one of Odyssey’s many favorable reviews, NOT the idle currents of the amps. Perhaps ’The Audiophile Voice’, that mentioned the Stratus’ figures in their review as well, read something incorrectly(... |
