Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? https://www.psaudio.com/pauls-posts/bashing-amps/ | |
ELAC - Adante... what’s the verdict? Despite all the fancy footwork and attempts to dance around the issue, it's clear from the Stereophile review and even clearer from the measurements that the floor-stander is bass-shy. The AS sounds like a better proposition. | |
Primare I35 Prisma Very little exposure in the US. Perhaps talk to Tenacious Sound.One A'gon member bought the CD35 and was ecstatic. | |
A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio Was it Ayre or some other company that had two settings on some of their products, for "Measure" and "Play"? | |
Classical Music for Aficionados Who knew that Franck wrote piano concertoS? Listening to #2 right now; very lyrical. | |
DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA Audio by Van Alstine make a relatively inexpensive but excellently built model. They also have a generous return policy. If McIntosh can't or won't help, it would be worth trying (if only to eliminate the possibility). | |
Brilliant Pebbles, a new tweak, cheaper than high end cables. As far as I'm concerned, it's small chunks of amber all the way. I sticky-tape them to everything. Just be sure they're nice and clear. Those pesky prehistoric insects have a distinctly deleterious effect on what is otherwise a massive improvem... | |
Classical Music for Aficionados My travels down the byways of 19C pianism have led this afternoon to a couple of concert pieces by Raff. Not going to change the world, but worth a listen... | |
Am I asking too much? Is it equally in both channels?Does the tube configuration of your amp share a tube between channels, or are they separate/symmetrical? Can you try swopping some over from one side to the other?How old are the tubes? Did they come with the amp? | |
Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? Bel Canto. | |
Brilliant Pebbles, a new tweak, cheaper than high end cables. Geoff Kait evidently lives beside the beach. Happy combing for 2019! | |
The invention of measurements and perception Wasn't it Beethoven's Ninth? That can run to 70 minutes. | |
Am I asking too much? Yes, first of all is it a hum or a hiss? A low mmmmmm sound or a slightly higher shshshshshsh sound?Try disconnecting (completely) first your turntable, then the phono stage. Does the amp+speakers still hum/hiss. Also disconnect the sub. One at a... | |
beginner seperate system It all depends. Rogue less so than some others. It varies from manufacturer to manufacturer and even from model to model--check out push-pull, ultralinear, SET, etc. | |
Full range tower speakers with bass under $10k Another enthusiastic endorsement of Salk, heard at the Capital AF. The Song 3 BeAT's were down deeper than they had any right to do, and the Encore model with larger woofer and cabinet went deeper still. In the mids and treble, though, I'd give t... |
