Amplifier Specification questions
@swede58 I know Ohms law but it doesn't address all my questions. I am a retired electronic tech by trade.   
Amplifier Specification questions
Interesting it does less class A into 4 ohms. I wonder if all amps do this or if they are all different. I'll have to contact the manufacturer of my amp and ask. Thanks for the reply.   
Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please
So many know-it-alls in this forum! You know who you are! This really gets tiring here! He specifically asked people to not criticize about the risks since he knows what they are! Some people just can't resist and IMHO these people are holding bac... 
Do you think driver “break in” is real?
I know I'm the minority, but I think break-in for almost all audio products is non-existent! It's your hearing that is changing and adjust to the new sound, NOT the stereo components! The whole BREAK IN thing is mostly complete nonsense!  
New speakers unveiled from Clayton Shaw - Caladan
My concerns are will these speakers be serviceable in a few years when Claytons health goes south again. I wish him the best BUT this is always a valid concern especially with Boutique one man shows.  
Is Aurender N10 still a good option
@ghdprentice Isn't the Aurender flagship the N30SA?  
question for Eminent Technology lft-8c and panel speaker owners
When is the new model ET speaker coming out that was previously demo at Axpona?  
Where can you read reviews from the recent Toronto Audiofest held this past weekend?
Youtube or dailyaudiophile  
How easily can you distinguish between different DACs?
One big difference for me is that ESS based DAC's seem to always be too bright sounding on my system and headphones. Both have ribbon drivers. I ended up with an R2R DAC that sounds much better to me.   
CODA amp No.8, Bryston 4B3, or Ayre VX-5 Twenty
I own the Coda #8 (V1) and it has surpassed my expectations. It's built like a tank and has massive current. Upgrades to the other versions (V1,V2,V3) are free from Coda and it has a 10-year warranty and a 5-year transferable warranty. Lucky for m... 
Aurender
@navyachts I'm using the DH Labs Mirage USB cable between my N200 and my Holo Audio May KTE DAC and it sounds great!  
Warranty repair wait times - serious industry problem??
I would verify the warranty is actually transferable since most are not.  
As he promised, Guttenberg reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8c.
I remember going to a previous Axpona show where they did a demo of an unreleased speaker in the 6K range that sounded very good. Does anyone know that model number and when that is being released?  
Eversolo DMP A6
@richl35 I also own the Master Edition. I bought it for a very High-End headphone system I have on my desk. Space was at a premium and I needed something much smaller. I had no illusions that this might fall short of the sound quality of my headph... 
Eversolo DMP A6
@badgerdms Besides the retailers selling it like SummitHiFi, there is one person so far that has compared the two on the facebook eversolo group. There is no doubt the Master edition is superior but much of this is dependent on how you use it and ...
