| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? Caveat: I know nothing about the seller:http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?ampstran&1304255043&/Threshold-S500-Jon-Soderberg-U | |
| Any benefit from" same brand" amp/pre-amp?? Magfan, I very well could be missing something here, but why would one care much about what goes on at 30Khz? | |
| SS against Tube Preamp The tube evangelists hyperbolic fervor that finds it necessary to damn ss gets downright silly sometimes. | |
| Any benefit from" same brand" amp/pre-amp?? Sunnjim, perhaps it's something peculiar to that Quad amp. Most seem to feel that with the right speakers, that bass response is a strong suit of some Class D amps. | |
| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? One can and sometimes does hear in excess of 110 dB. It's not just the volume, but the duration and the frequency that one hears these peaks that are of concern. When it's appropriate, it's nice to have the capability. Some speaker can handle it w... | |
| Vandersteen 3A sig , on the naked Johnnyr, where exactly did you place those broom sticks? What about the top plate? | |
| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? Why would you want less power then? | |
| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? I think some people, especially those running ss amps, are comforted by the idea that there is nice margin of available power away from clipping. Others claim that some distortion is audible from stressed amps before full clipping occurs. Some tim... | |
| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? Tvad, I for one would hate to lose you, and your valued balanced contributions to this forum. This particular thread doesn't seem that contentious to me. I do hope you'll reconsider. | |
| Which speakers to get for a Very Large Room. Though his argument has some merit, it should be pointed out that JohnK manufactures and sells the kind of speakers he's recommending. | |
| SS against Tube Preamp Good advice above. I agree with all but Polk432. Yes, a tube amp could make more of a difference, but no knowing the rest of the gear, etc., it's possible that a tube amp could make more of a difference in worse sound. | |
| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? Hack, a high current amps prowess might be lost on a speaker with a 16 Ohm impedance. | |
| Any benefit from" same brand" amp/pre-amp?? Using the same brand should negate any issues with output/input sensitivity and impedance matching. Why would the Class D have limited bass? | |
| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? Hack, remember that a high current amp will decrease power into higher loads. There are limitations in either case. Choose your speakers and amplify them appropriately. | |
| Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics? Al, I always welcome your posts. The "PROVIDED" you provided is the operative word. |
