| I have joined in the ZYX Family Chakster:According to the specifications provided by ZYX, they recommend a load impedance of greater than 100 ohms. Why would ZYX make the recommendation, if in fact as you say the 4D is not sensitive to loading? Hoping you can provide more insigh... | |
| I have joined in the ZYX Family Glad you are still enjoying it! My experience with loading my 4D is similar to yours. I set my Allnic H-3000 at 117 ohms, with 66db of gain, which sounded best to my ears on that particular phono stage. I tried the H-3000 at 278 ohms, but one can ... | |
| What makes you build a system around an amplifier? I was building a new music room that I wanted to share with my family. I wanted an amp that would not heat up the room so that the others in my family would hang out with me. I previously had an OTL amp which sounded excellent but turned my room ... | |
| Sweet Vinyl Sugarcube - I Want It!!! bondmanp -I am reading your updates with great interest. I have the option of receiving my SC-2 early, without the track splitting functionality, which they said would be automatically downloaded when it is ready to go. I am wondering if your auto... | |
| I have joined in the ZYX Family I too bought a ZYX 4D recently. I got mine from Sorasound, also for a great price. I am really liking it, it is a match made in heaven for my Triplanar tonearm. | |

| The state of Yamamoto Soundcraft products tooblue - How did you contact Yamamoto? A couple of weeks ago, I used the email address that is on their website, and I still have not heard back from them. I have a YDA-02 usb dac that developed a problem. | |

| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) We will see used GAE's and G's in the classifieds when the SP-10R starts to sell, as some audiophiles will want to upgrade. | |
| Sweet Vinyl Sugarcube - I Want It!!! bondmanp - No I have not. I only have read some posts and Fremer's initial impression. I'm looking for an easy way to digitize my fairly large vinyl collection. The SC-2 is very appealing to me. I just got a Coincident Statement Phono Stage, which... | |
| Sweet Vinyl Sugarcube - I Want It!!! I put a deposit down for an SC-2, but I am not in the beta tester group. Sounds like the SC-1 is very close to rolling out. I'm hoping to read the impressions of SC-1 owners about the real-time click and pop removal feature. | |
| Scale and Type of Improvement with Aurender N100H? Depends on your Mac Mini.The audio dealer that I bought my Mac Mini from personally owned both the Aurender N100H and the Mac Mini at the same time. The Mac Mini is a 2012 model with i7, 128gb SSD, 16gb RAM, linear power supply, and extraneous pro... | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic Okay, the fact that your amps are 20 watts clarifies things. Very cool tweak! Seems more of an issue of room/speaker interface.Merlins are great speakers for smaller rooms, but in my experience, and apparently yours, they do lose a sense of scale ... | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic Another option would be to keep your Merlins, which are excellent speakers, and find a more suitable amp. I used an 80 watt OTL amp with excellent results, and also tried a 22 watt push pull 300b amp that worked well.. | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic By the way, I would keep the Frankensteins. They are very capable of giving you the traits that you are looking for, when paired with the right speakers. |
