I'm with ya Uktel.

Phase flat and linear... and a noise floor that is in the basement. I have the Vibe/Pulse/Groove+/LinearA chain transmitting the analog signal through Meadowlark time aligned speakers.

The Tom Evans stuff can be ruthless, but when it works, it will make your chest heavy and stand the hairs up on your neck.

just trying to slam in a pair of linear Bs
absolutely awesome
music does'nt get much better?
the linear a is one of the most revealing amps out there
but sadly the Bs are in existence
god help me

Uktel, I will be selling some serious stuff in the next few months in order to get the B's, That is fate. My speakers at 91.5 and at 4 ohms are begging me to get it done asap. They will then seriously open up. Hell, i might even be finished at that point....well, kinda.
hey gmc, when you start saying that i might be done stuff, i wonder could that ever be possible to a audiophile, the tom evens equipment is as good as it gets, just one piece in my system has made a difference that is on the side of musical satisfaction deluxe, being sunday i am playing a lot of beatles lps while watching football, the only thing that went wrong today is the saints found the lost column, o well the music and beatles are pulling me through, will be looking into further upgrades with tom evens gear, mike
hi gmc and mike
gmc are youre speakers bi ampable
i dont know your speakers personally
i recently had a chat with tom evans regarding speakers with
low impedance in the bass units
he suggested 2 x linear As but both with the high impedance
and low impedance transformers in the same chassis and using them as monos
so effectively one linear a drives the left speaker
low imp for bass high for treble
the other drives the right speaker
in this configuration you would also get a 2 or 3 db volume increase
interesting thought eh?
has anybody else out there tried the pulse2
its as ugly as sin[looks like a small linear a]
it is meant to be quite an upgrade over the pulse
i havn"t heard them side by side so cannot actually comment on this myself
all the best fellas
