| Pass....Accuphase....or...... I´m reading a lot about the Coda S5.5... Could it be as good as the A-48? Have someone tested it at home? With what kind of speakers? How hot does it get? | |
| Any piece of equipment you currently dream of ? Accuphase A-48......man, those cheap class D amps are making the dreaming more and more difficult.... | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @atmasphere "Our amps have an over-current protection circuit that shuts the amp down if too much current shows up." The speakers I had before (Elipsa SE) went down to around 2 ohms at 100 Hz. It is a big difference then between shutting down and... | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @atmasphere "There are class D amps now that easily challenge any class A amp ever made." Sorry but I just have to ask.... Why do we rarely or never see the power specs of Class D amps below 4 Ohms? Atma Sphere class D is 100 watts per channel in... | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @atmasphere then all "Class A" are AB? Push pull Class A? Pass? What's the point with push pull Class A then? Is the ONLY real Class A a single ended amp? Why throw away the money with high bias AB? Is the heat good only for heating up the room? ... | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @westcoastaudiophile @lalitk If I look at the specs it seems to me that the A-48 is the more stable of the two. Doubling the output power down to 1 ohm. On paper, it does not have a problem with low impedance. Right? | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @miguelderivero Thanks! The A-48 in on top of the list.... | |

| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @atmasphere It's impossible to find an Atmasphere Class-D amp to test where I live.... sorry. I really would like to test them at home with my speakers. | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... Than you @westcoastaudiophile! I listen most to jazz and classical music, I think the new A48S 2x50W is at the top of the list.....unless I win the lottery, then it's the A80. If I understand it correctly: the Accuphase class-A is a push-pull amp... | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... ...and the nominees are: Accuphase A-48 (upper limit $$) Luxman MQ-88uC (not enough power…maybe) Pass Labs XA-25 (Trying to find one to audition or used) Audio Research Reference 75 SE (...or newer) Coda (not easily found where I live) | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... Has someone compared the A-48 and the P-4600? A and AB? Sound? Heat? | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @blue-magoo Man!....those Luxman MQ-88uC look good. And they seem to have a direct input that removes the level control from the circuit. Nice! What kind of speakers do you use with them? | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @liquidsound Looks like very high sensitive speakers....100dB? | |
| Pass....Accuphase....or...... @liquidsound Thanks. There's an A48S now....2x50W..... What speakers do you have? |
