| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 @koslekt1 - great info on that post. I see you have your Diablo 300 for sale (hint, hint btbluesky). | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Can I make the same comment that higher impedance is receptive to noise, in the same context that lower impedance adds distortion.Seems like most of the Class-D amps Stereophile measured included power ratings at 2ohms. It just thought it was weir... | |
| You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss @erik_squiresSo lets talk about integrity. Meaning, you have standards you hold others accountable to the same degree you hold yourself to. You are in every thread about people enjoying PASS LABS and tell them that they can’t be enjoying PASS LABS... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load That was my point George, someone mentioned the Stellar M700 goes down to 2ohms, and the specs are only 2.50ohms.It's also interesting that Stereophile didn't bother reporting specified power rating at 2ohms, but did mention THD rises into 2ohms a... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load @rambo21I believe PS Audio Stellar M700 monoblocksare rated to be stable down to 2 ohms.Class D 350 watts at 8 ohms, 700 watts at 4 ohmsSpec sheet for Icepower 700ASC specifies 2.5ohms minimum. | |
| Time to buy a class D amp? @niodariI, I would avoid the Red Dragon S500 as it’s spec sheet suggests 2.7 ohms minimum. This is the same as the Icepower 1200AS1 or 1200AS2.I think anyone using speakers that have an impedance below an amplifiers minimum rating will risk clippi... | |
| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? @gdnrbob He just want to find out why people find Pass amps are so desirable.Really, then maybe I don't understand what the following means:Whatever it is Pass fanatics rave about it grates on me. | |
| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? I agreee @tomcy6 , but the problem is what about the member who takes time putting together a well thought out post only to find out that their response didn’t really matter since Eric is only looking for negative comments. So now the issue become... | |
| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? Looks like 6 TROLLING discussions to me...https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/the-imperfect-amp-pass-or-ayrehttps://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/you-ve-tried-other-amps-and-ended-with-pass-please-discusshttps://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/... | |
| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? Eric, are you obsessed with finding someone, anyone to agree with your insecurity about Pass Labs? This is now your 6th TROLLING tread with Pass Labs in the title.Here's your view on Ayre vs Pass Labs:I've heard a top end Pass System and I'm .... ... | |
| Soulution 511 vs. Luxman m900 No experience myself, but you might consider these comments by someone who's words I trust (Viber7).https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/merrill-audio-element-118-on-tour/post?highlight=ELEMENT%2B11...Soulution 511 + 520 -- This is an exquisite ... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Thanks George.This thread should have been finished after the 5th post. I think your response nailed it perfectly. Class-D and speakers < 2ohms just don't work, with maybe the exception of some of the latest offerings that cost just as much a... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Sorry Erik, I won't be engaging in any more of this discussion. You can find the quotes yourself if you need to see them. I’ve kind of been looking at your threads. I’m going to give you advice I’m sure you won’t take.I guess you're the only perso... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load @gdnrbob - I was commenting on a question made by noble100 I also don't believe there's any validity to golfnutz claim that Erik has criticized Pass Labs or Spectral amps.Anyway, I didn't answer Erik previously about this because sure enough it wo... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load D’Agostino, Luxman, Ayre are my top favorites right now. I find their sound in sharp contrast with Pass, which is really not for me.Spectral is a line I wanted to be impressed with, like Pass, and I just haven’t. They do not bring me joy. On the o... |
