The speaker/amplification wars continue
I just gota message on a coment I made on his YT video of the Cayin 845,,says in his note ~~Hey Paul, I shipped the cayin 845 back, only listened to vocals with it,,, I am now listening to a KT150 with complex music~~~ What does this tell you?? The RG 211 will be tested as by fire. I know what the Defy can do, can a SET beat it? We will know soon enough. |

So taking the 2 above comments , not as ~snides~ but as honest, fair and open free speech ..I took it easy and thought about my next move. Obviously there are no fish biting on this topic and so I am just going to have to fish in other waters.. Lets see the Inet perhaps have some fish, = a good answer. So I type in ~~Weaknesses of SET amplification~~~ and what do I catch? None other than ~Steve Hoffmans's page~ Oh its a big one. And note ~THis topic has been CLOSED~ Seems this topic is highly sensitive (pun intended) material, hush=hush. Let me state at the get-go I only employa few jazz cds for the excellent record quality as testing cds, to ck the performance ofa amp, speakers, tweak, upgrade. Other than for these pirposes, I listen exclusively to classical, chamber yes, but also full orchestra. Note the opening question. My answer has been found. SET amplification will have less than satisfactory results, when the music calls upon, power and muscle. Jadis Defy7 will remain in place. paired with a 97b full range and dual 87db midwoofers. Had wolfie62 held back his free, fair open speech, I might not ever have typed this Q to the Inet's vast info recorded log. I have not read through this topic on Steve Hoffman's page, the OP gave me all I needed to know. I will most likely let Richard know that I have lost interest in his 211 SET. Ohh I just peeked to the 2nd post, Futher affirming what I feared might be the result of the SET experiment. Thanks Wolfie62 for inspiring me to make further research. You've been a big help ;--)) https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/pros-and-cons-of-set-single-ended-triode-systems.136051/ |
