| The Future of Audio Amplification piaga, for some reason I do not see your post which starts out ... 01-03-2019 2:42pm EST hello brotw Sorry for the late response, this thread has come to large and techincal. I find it hard to follow.Well, my Nord NC500 One UP is just burnin... | |
| Beware of SACD Transports -- they probably will not work with your favorite DAC SACD is a proprietary format. It must be played using an SACD player or a transport with SACD outputs. Not many player/transports have that, if they do they are $$$$$.I have a Oppo 105, which I can use as a transport(bypassing the internal dacs) B... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? sixsigmaPS makes 2 amp versions 300 & 700.The 300 likely uses a different module than the 700, which I am told sounds MUCH betterchances are you have the 300s | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? noble/TimFYI: I had 2 EP 100.2SEs (with upgraded fuses) for well over a year. I got the bug and bought a Audio Alchemy DPA-1 stereo amp. It is much richer in the midrange and bass, deeper and more holographic sound stage= much closer to real music | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification so Kosst, are you saying all class D has audible distortions? What about A and or A//B? Don't they as well?I have a 20 amp dedicated line, Core Power 1800 PC for front end . I bought it for my amp/s too, but they sound better plugged direct to wal... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Ric, I found it, but I don't see anything specific about mono v stereo. That said, my last 4 class Ds were monos. Only my current AA PA -1 is stereo. Too bd your amps aren't readyI have a chance to do a swap with a guy who has the AA monos for my ... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification ric I did not find the Audio C link you referred to. Maybe Im looking in the wrong place. I am new to the circle and cannot use the search featureReply 97 says Title of the thread: Amplifiers with IcePower 1200AS2, class D module. | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification plga, I just checked Nords site. It would cost > $2.2k for the Mk IIs. I don't mind the wait, but I can get a pair of AA monos for ~ $1500 (MSRP $3990) and that extra $700 I would need to spend now is a big stretch. I realize that the perceived... | |
| Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K) I may have given my 2 cnts somewhere in here. Anyway, Emerald Physics 2.8s are on sale, or can be purchased with a little bargaining round $5K. I haven't heard them, but based on my 2 years with their KC IIs, they should be giant killers. Open baf... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Ric, really good input (NPI) from you;) and likely why Peter Madnick's AA design got such rave reviews. Owning the DPA-1 (stereo amp) the only tim I notice glare is from poorly recorded discs. And yes, I recall ringing whn I had my KBA 75 with cha... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification George, are you not the same George who reviewed he Hattor passive pre with the Nord class D? | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Thanks Ric, but @ $4K US per, I would need to take a loan out on my house, so I would probably get the GaNs first. However, I might be able to extend my budget for your amp to see how it compares to my Audio Alchemy DPA-1, although I am currently ... | |
| Looking for new speakers Just watch YT video about the Emerald Physics KC IIs. I highly recommend you watch ASAP, and you might get the christmas special pricing | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification ^Yes, George. and that was th case with all previous class Ds that I owned, but, the Audio alchemy is different. I can hear the resonance and warmth of same inside acoustic guitars, coronets...FYI: as much as I hated to, I sold my Hattor XLR, but ... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification GuidoCYou seem like the perfect candidate to get the GaN ampsI have owned 4 different gen class Ds, Parasound A21, and a behemoth Kinergetics KBA 75, which I think was puree class A. It grabbed a hold of the heads on my then Genesis Vs, like none... |
