| Parasound A21 vs Bryston 4bsst 2 "In other words, for those who say get the Bryston, is it twice as good as the Parasound?"Absolutely not, IMO. | |
| Audio Research LS26 vrs REF 3 If you can afford the REF 3, do it. | |
| Mark Levinson 326s, an upgrade over the JC-2? I've owned both and yes the 326 is in a different league. I'd be happy to discuss specifics with you if you like. | |
| Looking for Help - LS27 or SLP-05 I've owned both and preferred the Cary by a significant amount. It has more of the tube attributes than the LS27 did in my system, and was just better essentially in every aspect. I would probably still own it if it had more remote functions (chan... | |
| Preamps better than Parasound JC-2 ? I agree with Stevecham. The JC-2 is an amazing piece at the asking price. | |
| Krell 2250e or ML532H...which one to buy? I'd go with the Levinson. | |
| Can I run 4 ohms into 8 ohm speakers? Agree with JMC. If so you could wire them in series creating a 16 Ohm load, but it sounds like you are wiring them in parallel and blowing stuff up. Be careful. | |
| Wilson Alexia vs Raidho D3 I've heard neither of these amps/preamps. | |
| Do you indulge when listening to your rig? Usually a nice whiskey and some ice-cubes. | |
| Parasound JC-1 vs. Pass Labs X350.5 Cant' go wrong with either IMO. I own the JC-1s and absolutely love them.I've listened to the X350.5 at my dealers showroom countless times and could easily live with it.The JC-1s just seem a bit better however in high-bias mode, especially in the... | |
| How Do You Calculate Watts Per Channel? In your first scenario the full 400W are being SHARED among all the drivers. For sake of simplicity lets say there are 2 drivers, and assume that they have exactly the same impedance and efficiency. Therefore the two drivers will perfectly split t... | |
| How Do You Calculate Watts Per Channel? I was not trying to state what Wattage was being consumed by the speakers at any given time, merely the theoretical power available which is how I read the OP's question.I think most people think of this question in terms of a perfect 8Ohm load an... | |
| How Do You Calculate Watts Per Channel? If you are bi-amping with 2x200W (@8 Ohms) amps then yes you have 400WPC (@8 Ohms).As Al said above, the instantaneous power is a function of the impedance of the speaker at a given frequency as well as the power supply of the amplifier.Utilizing ... | |
| McIntosh 452/601 to replace Pass X350.5, good? Get the Pass checked out. If you seek more resolution and detail, the move to Mac would be a step backward in my experience. | |
| Mark Levinson 333.5 vs Emotiva XPR-1 Monoblocks Zero chance I'd replace a Levinson with an Emotiva... especially the 333.5.No chance what-so-ever. |
