| Apogee Scintilla Power Sure would have loved to have heard those 2 VHC's on Scintillas. The ultimate match. | |
| Apogee Scintilla Power Great feedback. Confirmation as well as some new thoughts. For my Apogee Duetta Signatures the Mc MC7270 (with autoformer) works pretty well but my CJ MF2500a (bipolar) is fantastic. Using it in a bi-wire configuration is most coherent. Using it w... | |
| Apogee Scintilla Power Thanks for the advice and there is quite a bit of old discussion around Krell, etc. Looking for reliability and more modern approach. SS or tubes. Maybe Pass Labs. Great but expensive. Sorry, as noted in the opening of this thread the Scintillas a... | |
| Apogee Scintilla Power Good point on the Class D. Whatever Henry Ho created with his H2O amplifiers he definitely designed them to work with 1 ohm Scintillas. Cannot speak to the exact design elements. Control, was the wrong term regarding tubes on the ribbons. I can s... | |
| Apogee Scintilla Power Thanks for the Wolcott tip! While i am certainly a tube fan with some really great sounding older CJ tube amps i am going to try to make SS work for the Scintillas. Certainly much debate around which is better and attributes for each i value. The ... | |
| Apogee Scintilla Power Thanks for the additional input. DR-3’s definitely on the list. Great thought on the autoformers. What is interesting is that my Mc MC7270 has autoformers and a 1 ohm connection did not sound great with the, Scintilla’s. Sounds great with many oth... | |
| Apogee Scintilla Power Thanks for the feedback. Yes, the Sunfires will stay in the collection for now. There is a 600 as well. I think the 300 is 1200w at 1ohm. Quite remarkable. Will check out Magnus and TNT. I tried a McIntosh MC7270 and it did not get close to the Su... | |
| Ribbon midrange pros and cons May have much to do with production costs and logistics for the mass market. Being an Apogee owner (Duetta Signature and Scintilla models) there is a reason (in earlier post) why someone drove from Indiana to NY to get them. Yes they can be chall... |
