Assuming your new amp is broken in, moving to the SS amp may be revealing more detail in the upper frequencies. Try moving the speakers around and experiment with different tow in settings. Also, check to make sure your speakers are wired in phase, its an easy mistake to make. Just play a CD you know well and that has a strong centre vocal image. Make sure the voice is still in the centre between the speakers.
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
I just changed integrated amplifiers on January 2, 2015. I went from an Audio Research DSi200 to a Simaudio 600i. I'm running a Lumin A1 Network Streamer and Dynaudio C1 speakers. Those haven't changed. I'm also in the same 10' x 12' room.
My setup sounds great when I'm outside of my room. When I walk in and sit down, my ears start ringing.
I don't think that the high frequencies are the problem. Is this too much bass energy in the room, too much sound pressure, or what do you think?
Does anyone have a suggestion on what's needed to correct this problem?
Thanks,
Chuck
