| Best power amp for Avalon Opus Ceramique Dr., I agree with all you have to say, except that my system can hardly be summarized as, "Nice." My neighbors are convinced I have a grand piano in my living room. | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? Cdc, people are reading, "Chip," as the tiny plate on a circuit board, where actually in the case of the class D modules I have seen, there is a circuit board loaded with minute circuits, and equally miniature resistors and caps, thus they are a m... | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? I use the H2O Signature monos loaded with B&O's newly improved 500A modules. These modules require an add on power supply. There use to be an argument about which class D module sounded the truest. I believe B&O has put that argument to bed. | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? Kalan, Chip amps is just another misnomer, like digital amp. The proper nomenclature is Class D, another analog type. There are chips on the circuit boards. The circuitry board with all it's resistors, capacitors, and chips is called a module. I d... | |
| Anti-cables vs CC89259 I am just reporting my experience when I went on the net to get my own magnet wire. There were a myriad of different substance coatings. There were 24 insulation types available at one site, enamel being just one. | |
| Best power amp for Avalon Opus Ceramique Elberoth2 and Jttn are off the mark. My H2O Signature monos, with their upgraded ICE modules in place, have mids and highs to die for. I do not have Avalons. My amps are running a much more difficult load. I don't compare my system with other syst... | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? Kevziek, there is a heirarchy that exists in chip amps just as there is in tube and solid state. There are chip amps I would not own, nor care to listen to for very long. The best have a clarity that cannot be matched by Mosfet amps, due to the sc... | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? That did not make a lick of sense, Tvad. I know you are a fan of Pass amps. Are you saying all the bold difference between my present amps and the X600 are those tiny pass component boards? I think not. The huge difference is due to completely dif... | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? I had the advantage of replacing my Supersymmetry monos directly with a "chip" amp, same system. Everything became instantly clearer. I could see much deeper into the recording. Thee bass was much more pronounced and tighter. There was no turning ... | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? The question still is, "Has anyone else experienced this 'haze' with a mosfet-based design?"The answer is.......... drum roll........... Yes! | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? Yeah, but I get to choose the color of the day. You know that about tubes.... | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? I don't want an amp that colors the signal. I color it to my choosing with a tubed DAC. My amp, and preamp's job is to magnify that DAC's sound, and nothing more. The question was, do we hear Mosfet haze? My answer is a question, relative to what?... | |
| SS amp mosfet 'haze' - ever experienced this? I did listen to the Pass X series amps, for a period of years. They were my mainstay in powering my system. My last was the X600. I needed the power to drive my difficult speakers. I was fairly happy with the sound. "What could be better," I asked... | |
| Anti-cables vs CC89259 I researched magnet wire and found there are hundreds of different types. You have to know their insulation qualities to make an educated guess which one to buy. Speltz has done the homework. His transformers broke new ground from what I read. The... | |
| Thoughts on adding a Super tweeter . I heard a super tweeter on a neighbor's SET system. Although there was noticeable HF extension over his single driver speakers, the superimposed lower HF brought on a heightened upward tilt that I didn't care for. |
