| Focal Mezzo Utopia Be Upgrades Thanks for the feedback guys! :) Erik | |
| Clarity Cap CMR Impressions I should warn you guys, the big cap is currently bypassed by an Audyn TC, and the small cap by a Duelund silver foil. Silver foil IMHO did nothing. Audyn is priceless. So my goal is to see if the new caps by themselves are as good as this combinat... | |
| Wilson New Speaker Master Chronosonic I think that's Wilson's personal listening room. It comes up in several photo shoots. And yeah, it looks like a hotel conference room, not a real living space. Best,E | |
| Class D is just Dandy! @h2oaudio No reason to get elaborate. Too many words make misunderstandings even easier. :) I'm just curious if you have measured the electrical frequency response of those amps hooked up to the Scintillas. I'd love to see those charts. :) Best,E | |
| Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money? No, I got super lucky. :) $250 is per kit, including case. ICEPower 250 ASP modules. Used, but working. :) | |
| Class D is just Dandy! @h2oaudio What you do with your amplifiers is between you and your part supplier, but these are high current outputs. Unless specifically rated for such low loads I would never encourage anyone to attempt this without further input from the manufa... | |
| Clarity Cap CMR Impressions Man I have been slacking. I've been afraid of dismantling my current crossovers to put these in. :) I didn't do a very good job of making them upgradeable. :) I'll try to get to it this weekend. I'm putting in a pair of caps, 4uF and 12uF Best,E | |
| Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money? Yes! For a variety of reasons I ended up getting Class D amplifier kits for a ridiculous price. Around $250 per 250W/Ch amplifier. Fantastic sounding even at full price. At the prices I paid they were a complete steal.Best,E | |
| Class D is just Dandy! To sell a new product we must sell the problem first, so I can see where a lot of this is coming from. I don't have a problem with listening to the new when it comes out. I'm not easily swayed by naked kings though. Best,E | |
| Class D is just Dandy! @h2oaudio That's fascinating, for two reasons:1 - I did not know any ICEPower modules were rated for 1 Ohm2 - The output impedance is quite high at the top octaveHave you measured the speakers with those amps? Best,E | |
| Class D is just Dandy! @h2oaudio VERY interesting. :) Please elaborate on the amps you are using, and how the speakers are configured (bi-amped? etc.)Thank you!Erik | |
| Wilson New Speaker Master Chronosonic They don't look any more or less hideous than any other Wilson though, do they?? | |
| Class D is just Dandy! My own take on high efficiency speakers and flea tube amps:People LIKE the sloppiness. That is, the high impedance outputs of the amps make the electrical frequency response much more variable, and .... that's what some people like. :) I don't thi... | |

| Wilson New Speaker Master Chronosonic They look a lot better in rainbow colors, @tpreaves I promise. ;) ;) ;) |
