What Is The Cost Of Amplifier Casework?


What is the approximate cost of the casework on the big Krells, big Pass Labs and big Gryphon amps?  What is the approximate cost of  casework on similar big solid state amps?

Exactly kalali, the depth perceived is all dependant on how far back the back wall is between the speakers, in my case it’s a good 5mts.

But you still need a short wall with a meter to two space directly behind the speaker for bass loading, as you sort of have with the bay window setup, otherwise you could get bass light depending on the speaker.

Hey, wait a minute...the speakers out from the wall thing was my gig. lol

Carry on George.

This is sort off what I have, and listeners have said it's the best image and depth they've ever heard.

Looks like the best of all worlds George. My speakers are 100" out from the rear wall; guess I could build some Perry Mason courtroom-type short walls four feet behind the speakers, open in the middle of course, to improve room loading...

Seems that the common agreement here is that the prettier the item, the more you'r paying for appearance vs. performance.

So...it comes down to whether or not you're trying to impress your eyes or your ears in the first place.

There seems to be examples of beautiful equipment that eats dust vs. 'plain Jane'.  And why am I not surprised...;)
