| What makes you build a system around an amplifier? How does an amp contribute to imaging? | |

| Wharfedale Denton vs Diamond 225 Dentons for folk and jazz....lighter music. 225s for faster, heavier, bassier music. | |
| What makes you build a system around an amplifier? For me it was my first SET amp. It made my solid state amps sound grainy and etched by comparison. It's kind of like how I never noticed crossovers until I got a single driver setup. Nowadays, unless the crossover point is below around 1.5hz, I he... | |
| Low output gain amplifier for ZU 101db Efficient speakers Of course he did, that’s one of his bread and butter items, he’s not going to shoot himself and his company in the foot, left himself an "out" by saying "an unexplained phenomenon" BTW Where is this quote?It was a video interview. When pressed fur... | |
| Low output gain amplifier for ZU 101db Efficient speakers With speakers that are over 98dB there's really no advantage in having a preamp with gain, as you've found it's a diadvatage, you'll find many now are starting to go for passive preamps as per this Nelson Pass quote:George I heard Nelson say basic... | |
| KEF LS50... The ultimate anal-ytical speaker for living rooms? If you find the q100 thin you will find the LS50s to be thin as well. You will need to move up to the 6.5 woofer and larger cabinet of the R300...or pair with a sub. | |

| Amplifier matching with omega super Alnico Monitors. A 250 watt amp is major overkill. For solid state consider the First Watt amps. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Speaking of speculation, the coaxial effect isn't even mentioned by the speaker designer. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering It seems to be coming from kdude66. The first two posts in this thread give the crossover details and coaxial explanation. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering I'm thinking that this is coming from Mr. Eric. It's not mentioned in patent or website as far as I could see. This would be an impressive accomplishment for a passive speaker. | |
| Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money? They are going to start selling a DI version with Scanspeak drivers. I don't think that it will be a lot better and certainly not as stupid good for the money. | |

| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? @sean_heis1 If you find outstanding (better than anything else on the market or ever mass produced) measured performance to be a meaningless achievement then how do you propose to measure what you find important? My ears and brain work together an... |
