| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Ok that answers some questions. I can’t hear anything from my listening position and I’m using an aurender with a SSD so computer noise is very minimal if present at all. If I have nothing on except the Vidars and I run my ears by the speakers I h... | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Thanks ron1319 for the feedback that is very interesting. I did a quick listening session with the Vidars yesterday to remind myself of how I felt. I do like the amps to be honest especially in the bass region but I can’t help but hear that buzz w... | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? 213runnin - no you have it right they are 4ohm. I actually did like the 356, a lot cleaner than I was expecting and had decent power so I was relatively happy with them. They were definitely a lot cleaner than my class AB Vidars which is strange (... | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? @ron1319 wow 801s are good speakers. When you get your Vidar please post your thoughts. Even with all my other equipment off I get a mechanical hum from both of them. The left one is a little worse than the right one but still. I’m using the same ... | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Thanks everyone for some really great points and suggestions!!! I have so much more to go on than I had and I’m really grateful for that! @Chazzz007 good point I do like the sound of the NAD but I was hoping for an upgrade to the sound and possibl... | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Wow some very good options. Thanks for all the input, I just wish I could hear all these to know which sounds best to my ears. That’s always the problem with this hobby it is often hard to test drive. | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Thanks Erik, the Hypex is a great option as well. I remember new record day making a video on it. Great way to save some money! | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Yeah the stellar 700 is a good option. I think I wanted class AB at the time I was looking into amps so I skipped over these guys. I wonder how big of a difference a class AB vs a class D from a good audio company will make. I also wonder how impo... | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? I don’t know why but I forgot about Emotiva, great option thanks! | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Thanks those are both great options I’ll do a little digging on them. Much appreciated! | |
| Search for miracle integrated Thanks to everyone for all your input. A very interesting turn of events has taken place at RMAF- Schiit is going to offer a 400w monoblock amp fully balance and A/B into 8ohm for $700 each.. That's Nuts!!! A new pre-amp also at $700 is joining th... | |

| Search for miracle integrated It might sound ridiculous but for around $9k would the vinnie rossie amp/pre-amp combo drive most other $9k combinations out of the water? That be more than enough power to drive anything. It does move me away from integrated but would it be worth... | |
| Search for miracle integrated I thought about the Rangarok but there is one problem- no remote... I'm controlling the amp from my desk which is about 10 feet away so I need a remote for volume etc. As far as going the wrong way, I've always heard if you know the end speaker, g... | |
| Search for miracle integrated Great point simao a call to Robert Lee makes a ton of sense! Glad to hear that about the LIO amp, if 25 watts is enough it is definitely a great option and to be honest it is under budget which gets me to the Crescendos even faster. Thanks so much... |
