| What Power Amplifier Should I Buy? StringAmp d220 power amp ( same designer as for the Gamut d200 versions) Michael has perfected the design all these years and his amps are built to last a very long time. He told me that the amps are even better sounding now, a lot of great revie... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread Looking at this thread again, I noticed that I never posted a update on my Cabernet problems, the man to the rescue was @jslateiv He helped me find the problem by the pictures I had sent him, it seams two solder joints were not soldered at all, ... | |
| High end bookshelf speakers for Small room Graham Audio LS 5/9, beautiful sounding speakers, I drive mine with tube pre and class A amp, never tired of the sound. | |
| Borresen X3 vs Harbeth 40.2 -- my impressions I think a lot of you have really misunderstood bbc speakers. Derek Hughes has said on numerous occasions that it is all about the crossover, that is where you design the sound of the speakers, off course the cabinets are important but that was ta... | |
| Differences between Harbeth, Spendor, Graham, etc. ? I have the Graham Audio LS 5/9 and adore them, beautiful reproduction of the human voice, strings sound sublime and jazz is just very special to listen too. I have never heard the Joseph Audio speakers so can’t comment on them, but I hear good thi... | |

| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @johnah5 That was not much, my Supratek Cabernet uses 152 watts and my belles SA30 uses 354 watts!!! Makes me wonder if the S5 has sliding bias into ab early ? | |
| Watts! How many do we need? Anyone that listen at 113-115db are either def or stupid, or if doing it routinely maybe both? If you are not def, is it then something you aspirer to be ? Why would a music lover try to intentionally destroy one’s hearing? As older we get our ... | |

| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @sim_audio_nerd How is the gain between pre and amp, does the pre and power amp make any noise when turning on or off ? Does the sound ever get bright ? And does male voices have gravitas, off course more depending on speakers. | |

Your amp is not mid fi, it is high end, and I think if the amp is technically well constructed and you use a well constructed cable, could be $50-$100 in price depending on enclosure, your amp should sound at its 100%! If the amp is changing sound... | |
