Dynaudio C1 and Pass amp

Hi Pnmeyer,
Keep it posted how it goes. C2 II and XA30.5? I thought I was optimistic. But I guess it depends heavily on the size of the room. With C2 II though I don't suppose your room is remotely close to small at all.

Phreak12,
How big is your room?

Let me get this straight. You guys are saying a 30 watt amp is driving C-1's to a loud volume? I find that hard to believe. I'm driving C-1's with a 90lb 100 watt tube amp and I feel I don't have enough power.

Not yet for me. But I will pretty soon.

I had no problem with volume on my aleph 3 + Confidence 3 combo -- just a sharp drop off in bass response below 100hz. This was a problem in 3 different listening rooms of different dimensions from small to large in three different houses. The problem may have been the speakers, may have been some bass-dampening phenomenon common to each room -- or it may have been an under-powered amp.

The sound I did get was astonishingly beautiful, though.

Hi Rr999,
Does Aleph 3 go into A/B mode after it goes out of class A? My understanding is Pass only starts doing that with their XA.5 series. This should help in dynamic swings and maybe able to explain your 100Hz roll-off? I could be wrong.

Regards,
