@immatthewj it's going to depend on how loud you listen and how far away your speakers are from you. I typically listen around 75db and max out in the mid 80s. My speakers are about 7 feet from me. My speakers (Phase Technology PC 3.5) are around 90db sensitive and I have no trouble hitting my limits even with my lowest power combo. Of course I'm probably rarely going over a watt at a time.
Upgraded McCormack DNA-1 or Dennis Had Inspire SEP?
It’s make or break time. I need to make a decision about which direction I need to take regarding my next amplifier. I’m coming from a Jolida Fusion 3502P that I’ve spent the last year searching for the best tube combinations.
Do I keep the McCormack DNA-1 I just bought and save up to have it upgraded, or do I sell it and buy a new Insipre amp from Mr. Had?
I have a pair of Klipsch Cornwalls, Better Cables silver serpent interconnects, high quality copper speaker cables, and I’m feeding them with a Marantz preamp, through which I feed almost all my music via Amazon/Heos.
Discuss.
Thanks in advance.

@isaacc7 thanks. |
@jsbw Woo! Glad it's meeting expectations. For some reason I have been blocked from signing in over at AudioAficionado and can't figure out how to get a hold of an admin. Let me know if you have any questions, I've been pretty active over there and had a big long thread about my adventures with tube rolling. Still experimenting with different tubes, including some exotic ones. |
