| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! I definitely agree that what we know now is possibly different than what we knew in the past, most likely due to learning and experiences. I think WC has done a great job of putting things into context and perspective, based upon previous point-i... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! Agreed on the separate discussion jetter. Very nice of viber6 to share his knowledge. Plus, I’m done with testing for RF - I’m into trying out cables now and enjoying my system - AND, of course, enjoying WC’s journey :-)Dave | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @ron17Thanks Ron17 for your email (and post)! Good to know about your amp and the RF issue. The Odeon is the only amp I’ve ever had a problem with. There is a ground lift switch on the back, and in one position it was fine and just warm to the tou... | |
| Krell XD gear in the House Initial Impressions @michaelgreenaudioGreat post and definitely a perspective to consider. I never knew the old Krell, but I do like the new Krell. I’ve been through many 7 channel amps, and this Theater 7 is my favorite (and it's not even the XD version). I also don... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @ron17I was very excited to try the Odeon and had one for ~7 months. I must have had a bad apple, since apparently most folks like it. Plus, I had the super duper upgrade done to it, and had problems with it. I was told that RF in my house was ... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @thejeenyus54I had a Pass Labs X350 and an X5 for home theater at my previous house, and it was absolutely fantastic. When we moved to our new house and started having kids, I downsized and thought I would try to find a 7 channel amp that would wo... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! I agree with you WC - you can't try everything, especially mega buck stuff. I like your offer to pay shipping both ways. That way, if someone really wants you to try something they can share the wealth and purchase the cable and send it to you. ... | |
| Krell XD gear in the House Initial Impressions @audiotroyIf you re-read my post, it was two folks that I mentioned. Both folks are associated with Krell in one way or another, so I'm thinking there should be some validity. Again, I qualified that with - "...this was specific to my Theater ... | |
| Krell XD gear in the House Initial Impressions I am interested too, however, I’ve heard from one person who said it was a slight improvement that might/might not be noticed and another that said it was not worth the money. This was specific to the Theater 7, so I’m not feeling too excited abou... | |
| Krell XD gear in the House Initial Impressions I have a Theater 7, which is supposed to sound better than the Chorus amps, even though it is less wattage. However, it's supposed to have close to as much current as the Chorus line. Anyway, it sounds really good, and I've had a lot of 7 channe... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @WCI've been getting the same feeling about Krell. I have the Theater 7, and it's an excellent amp - supposed to be much better sounding than the Chorus amps, even though it's not as much power. However, it is supposed to have just as much curre... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! Same here regarding the Nordost - not at all mushy - just the opposite.Dave | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! Did you use a cotton ball or something else?Dave | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @WCBack to the MX160. Yes, it has RoomPerfect, but not a great preamp section, when compared to something like a ref10. Too bad you can't get a McIntosh MEN220 to insert between your ref10 and the amps (or between the Lampizator and the amps). ... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! I agree too. You will need the ref10, if continuing to try amps. Plus, trying out a platinum PC on the ref10 might turn things back to the ref10.Dave |
