Atma-Sphere MA2 Mk2.3 / Krell KSA 250 / Passlabs?
10-07-08: AtmasphereFWIW the MA-2s can handle a load like this easily.What makes the MA2 able to handle larger impedance swings than the M-60 can handle, and how can a consumer evaluate this?

Instead, I will be sending them to Oregon for use by his friend in an artistic composition.Jimjoyce25 (Threads | Answers)What a great solution!Good for you. 
Atma-Sphere MA2 Mk2.3 / Krell KSA 250 / Passlabs?
10-07-08: Springbok10...they easily drive my SP Tech Revelations, 4 ohm impedance.The pertinent (missing) information here is the impedance curve. Nominal impedance doesn't tell the complete story. Perhaps the Revelations have a flat impedance cur... 
Atma-Sphere MA2 Mk2.3 / Krell KSA 250 / Passlabs?
10-07-08: AudiokinesisThe MA-2 will have sufficient power, but I'd want to look at the impedance curve and frequency response curve of the speaker before voicing an opinion on that match-up. Impedance match was my only concern as well. 
What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes?
So, Jimjoyce25, have you decided how to dispose of your old tubes? What are you going to do with them?I toss mine in the trash. IMO, it's more damaging to our environment to get in my car and drive 20 miles round trip to the appropriate LA recycli... 
Atma-Sphere MA2 Mk2.3 / Krell KSA 250 / Passlabs?
Rushton, do you think an impedance curve ranging from 4.6 to 9.2 ohms is flat/benign/friendly?No agenda. Just wondering.As I recall, most of the speakers recommended by Atma-Sphere have a smaller spread between the low and high impedance spec, whi...

Tobias, does the JAS player have a coax digital output? I looked on the Quest for Sound website, but they didn't have output info.

I'm beginning to wonder if Hotbird has a vested interest in Audiovalve that should be disclosed in the threads. 
Atma-Sphere MA2 Mk2.3 / Krell KSA 250 / Passlabs?
I know first hand that the Atma-Sphere MP-1 preamp matches well with Pass Labs amplification. Since the Dyns are unfriendly, I'd suggest the Atma/Pass combo.If the speakers were friendly...the answer would be obvious. However, I suspect you will v...

Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
10-06-08: RebbiBy the way, how have you folks found the fit and finish on the Ohms to be.The fit and finish of the Ohm speakers I auditioned two years ago was fair at best.

10-06-08: RebbiWell, guys,I cannot believe I did this, but I actually ordered a pair of Micro Walsh Tall's today!Glad you finally made the decision.

What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes?
This is an interesting post, and I congratulate Jimjoyce25 for caring enough to ask the question.It reminds me of the hundreds of thousands of compact fluorescent light bulbs that are presently being pushed as eco-friendly. These bulbs require spe...
