Looking for tonearm inspiration

The DR3_VHC is a stereo pure class A non-feedback design with only 25 watts output power and a headroom of 6db.

That's pretty funny- if it is really class A, then the headroom is 0dB. So either its got 6dB headroom or its class A, but it can't be both.

You live in the past that kind of clipping just does not exist in SS today electronics even in the years of my Classé Audio.
It's not only totally inaudible but almost does not exist even if you try to you can't because the designs are very well care about.

This is also pretty funny.

 Tubes at any audio home electronics is bs. and unfortunatelly you can't do nothing about but to follow sale your electronics to the mediocrity/average of the audiophiles that were teached and learned through the corrupted AHEE where obviously you belongs as me and every one in audio. Period.

This word salad is not intelligible, and the reference to the 'corrupted AHEE' is weird- never heard of it. Nice ad for your preamp BTW- apparently you owe the idea of balanced operation to Atma-Sphere...

@atmasphere if not headroom explain how those 25 watts can handle the Scintilla. Forgeret don’t explain nothing.

SS amplifiers with over 250 watts can´t do it ( not even with 400 watts at 8 0hms. ) and in the other side I never listen " your SS " clipping tale any time in that Classé or in my 20.6 or any decent contemporary SS amplifiers even at measured 105 SPLs.

The Classé Audio headroom was measured by JA and you can ask about D.Reich, not me. The 20.6s has no headroom as are fully regulated input to output and puts 800 watts at 1 omh and yes 1.6K watts at 0.5 ohms.

I told you other times that perhaps you belongs to the darkest side of the corrupted AHEE defending what has no defense at all supporting archaic technology used by the very low levels customers have and taking advantage of that ignorance levels but you are in that darkest hole because I never see Lamm or Air Tigth or Audio Research manufacturers shoting as you in any internet audio forum.

You are makiong a huge damage to the true music lovers only because is your way of living.

Of course this is a free world.

Enjoy your bs and o something nice to the AHEE other that your same tales.

Btw, blow-up tubes experiences with amps: one was with Atmasphere monoblocks in Philadelphia even the owner call you and I was there because I was hosted in his home, in F.Crowder home in Houston with a unit 3 times higher price that any of your items, at A.Porter in Dallas with a unit one channel down, here in my country a Conrand Johnson running Wilson speakers. In all those ocassions the owner system are top ones even at least two of them over the 250K. Do you know when I living not several experiences but one experience as those ones with SS electronics? NEVER.

Yes, tubes is synonimous of bs.

I take no single idea from atmasphere items. Our Essential 360 as our tonearm are self designs from zero and with no single advise from any where and no copy of anything. You are totally wrong on this as in many other things.

No it's not advertasing: all the gentlemans with whom I talked in the times of the developed of the Essential 3160 all them refuse to buy it and all the lucky gentlemans that bougth it I never beeen in touch with them they asked by email and bougth it with no advertasing.

Brent, you just wait, it’s beautiful.

Anyone ever heard about PRO version of Fidelity-Research FR-64fx ?

As always the thread goes to another direction, let's get back to tonearms, maybe?! 

Yea, what is all this chatter about power amps about? Start your own thread. This went from interesting to dead boring.

@billwojo : atmasphere started about.
