| DK Design VS- Reference vs Signature Newbee, I doubt that's what DK Design meant by Class A+, otherwise there is no reason not to use the common Class A/B spec. Further, Class A operation has been one of the primary features marketed by DK since the release of the MK II, and perhaps ... | |
| DK Design VS- Reference vs Signature I downloaded the MK III brochure, and it lists the amplifier's class of operation as Class A+. Class A+ ? Is this a new class? I thought the classes were A, B, and A/B? | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? The Linn 2250 power amplifier uses a proprietary switch mode power supply, and is not a Class A/B fan cooled amp, and is therefore in the family of amps that are being discussed. | |
| ICEpower Digital Switching Amps? Ar_t, perhaps I've missed your post where you stated who you are, but for those of us reading this thread would you please identify yourself. As a designer/manufacturer of amplifiers, and someone with experience beyond us end users, it would be pr... | |
| Looking for 5.1 speakers for Denon AVR 3805 I use NHT speakers with my Denon 3801, and the combo sounds very good. However, you can do much better than Denon/NHT with a budget of $5-$10k. Frankly, I still think NHT is a good speaker choice for a music/HT system. Perhaps with the money you s... | |
| anyone listen to marching bands? I agree "Blast" is excellent, however on a significantly smaller scale than a large marching band like OSU. | |
| Inverted phase preamps? Elizabeth, you make a valid point. Even though I swap my speaker leads because my preamp inverts absolute phase, I have never discerned a difference. By the way, what's different about your prickly mood today than any other day? :)It's one of the ... | |
| Inverted phase preamps? "Most manufacturers recommend..." Downunder? How do you know this is the recommendation of most manufacturers?The manufacturer of my preamp...First Sound...does not specifically recommend reversing the leads at the speakers or at the amp. First So... | |
| Any heard of Porcupine Tree? "In Absentia" was on my Hot Rotation for nearly a year. "Lightbulb Sun" is terrific too, but both have been recently supplanted by the re-mastered and wonderful "Signify"."Deadwing" could be "In Absentia II", in my opinion. It's good, but nothing ... | |
| How do I go backwards? JD, I sent you an email. | |
| How do I go backwards? J.D. if you're interested, I'd be willing to loan you my Hydra 2 and Electraglide Epiphany cord. I know it's not your original Hydra and Anaconda, but it might be similar. You'll never know until you try. If the SCD-1 was the only thing plugged in... | |
| anyone listen to marching bands? I think an audiophile recording of the OSU band is a tough request, but you may get lucky and find one.I still think checking out one of the elite DCI drum corps...like the Blue Devils, might pay off sooner. Several of the older, elite corps have ... | |
| anyone listen to marching bands? Osu_buckeye, no malice intended with my comment. I should've followed it with a "smile".Here's a CD:Ohio State University Marching Band:On The March, Vol. One .Volume One! That means there has to be more! | |
| anyone listen to marching bands? Dude...or dudette...you're frightening. But, here's an idea. While not collegiate marching band, Drum Corps International recordings may quench your marching band Jones.Have fun. | |
| Another sign SACD is dying Anyone else think a one-box PC or Mac based hard drive music server coupled with a redbook CD player would be a no-brainer for Microsoft or Apple? Something akin to the combo Tivo/DVD players or VHS/DVD players, only for audio... |
