| Pass Labs xa-25 or Coda Continum #8 @johngp Between the Coda #8 V2 and the S5.5, which one do you prefer? And what preamp are you pairing it with? | |
| Pass Labs xa-25 or Coda Continum #8 Some people mentioned that the Coda S5.5, because it operates in pure class A, produces a sound that is somewhat tube-like – a bit on the warm side, yet at the same time it preserves the clarity and detail of a solid-state design. However, in this... | |
| Pass Labs xa-25 or Coda Continum #8 @earthbound Where did you hear that about the Coda being a little noisy? Please provide the source, I'd like to read about that too. @bugredmachine Thanks for your opinion. How would you describe sound signature from the Coda? | |
| Pass Labs xa-25 or Coda Continum #8 Great thread. I'm on the fence about choosing between the Pass XA.25 and the Coda S5.5, but I'm leaning towards the Coda. @earthbound you're right, there are plenty of raving reviews about both amps. It's really difficult to get genuine feedbac... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! I've got a message from Jeff saying that the power produced by the Coda S5.5 should be sufficient to drive the Pulsars. | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @soix thanks as always, but chances of finding a McCormack/SMC Audio in Europe are pretty slim. | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @soix thanks! I've just read a review (https://pt.audio/2020/08/06/joseph-audio-pulsar2-graphene-loudspeakers-review/) with the following information: "The Pulsar2s have a nominal 8-ohm impedance and are easy to drive. While I tried a few differe... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! I know it's an old thread, but I’ve read a ton of glowing reviews about this amp and they’ve definitely got me thinking about buying one for myself. That said, I’m not sure if Coda S5.5 would be able to drive my Joseph Audio Pulsars. The manufactu... | |
| Looking for an AMP to match JA Pulsar and Lampi I guess a LTA preamp would be a good match for a bit warmer A class amp such as CODA? And warmer Hungary Audio preamp would fit well with Hegel, for example? I'm not sure what I'm really looking for, but it's OK for me to go in bad direction and ... | |
| Looking for an AMP to match JA Pulsar and Lampi PS. any thoughts about LTA preamps and trafomatic audio equipment? | |
| Looking for an AMP to match JA Pulsar and Lampi Thanks, I think too that tube pre + ss amp would be great for my taste. For a moment I was toying with the idea of tube pre + tube amp, because Qualiton prices are very reasonable, but then I got afraid that with my Lampizator and Emerald USB cabl... | |
| Looking for an AMP to match JA Pulsar and Lampi @soix any knowledge about Qualiton separates, like C200 pre + P200 amp? | |
| Looking for an AMP to match JA Pulsar and Lampi Thank you so much for your replies! I've been checking carefully all your recommendations over the weekend - so much new stuff to read about :) For now I decided not to go into class D and monoblocks. It's about a lack of space and a personal nee... | |
| System advice I finally bought Lampizator Big 7 MK II with Engine 11 and David Laboga Emerald MK II USB cable to connect Lampi to my temporary streamer which is Mac Mini. I'm satisfied for now - Pacific was obviously better, but also 4 times more expensive. I... | |
| System advice Yeah, thanks. I read so many positive comments about Octave that it's really hard to believe I woudn't like it. As there is a real issue with finding Lampizator with preamp, I started toying with the idea of buying Lampizator DAC, Octave RE 320 an... |
