Hi All,
Got the audio engine D1 and hook up to my laptop (Dell Latitude), supply to Marantz KI PM Pearl Lite (70wpc) and driving DSW440i and RTi A1. I tried with and without the dac and can hardly...

Hi All,
Just done a detailed study and found both PurePower and PSAUDIO uses same technloogy (convert ac to dc then invert back to ac again, of course they may use different proprietry technology...

I guess it boils down to the different makes, the room set up and accoustic treatment. I have 5feet between me and the rear wall and find the best result to have the speaker meeting between me and...

Ops sorry. I checked psaudio, they are the same power inverters to connect to dc then back to ac again to give pure, constant clean and protected ac voltage. Prices are the same too plus shipping...

Hi 20hz
Thanks for your feedback. The pearl lite does not have a sub connection nor 4ohm switch. I tried the pre out also clip the amp. Only way to go without clipping is to connect speaker output...

Let me describe it in more detail.
The matantz has 2 speaker outputs, A and B. If I connect the A output from the map to the DSW sub, then using the sub-speaker output to the a1s, it runs without...

Hi Dawgfish
Thanks for the link, its a good read. I will try to get the cables and try the bi-wiring. I cannot find the cable I am using around here, its vdh mc magnum hybrid, thick and flat cable...

I have checked your recommended aps pure power and they do have 220to 240vac models, that would add another 3gs to my budget, :sad:.
As to the cables, I am using vdh mc magnum hybrid halogen free...

Hi F1
Thanks again. I am using local manufactured automatic voltage stabilizer rated at 10000va, which uses servo motor regulators. Suppose to keep voltage stable from 150v to 250v, but at times I...

Hi All
Its been a very interesting week reading all these feedbacks, comments, recommendations and debate about the different amps. I am so happy to be part of this polk community as everyone speak...

Thanks F1, that is a really good read.

I see no difference with the bi-wiring as you mentioned as the hi-low already are connected. However if we use A-B connection then we have 2 power source going into the speakers. My worry is damage...

Hi Dawfish
Yap clear as mud. However my amp could power both S&B out at the same time. Then could I use both then?

By the way, a stupid question here, - The amp has 2 speaker out puts (A and B with 170wpc both driven in parallel), if I were to connect them to the speakers, - A to high and B to low frequecy and...

Hi all,
Thanks for all your contributions. I had fanally decided to bite the bullet and take the 15% lost to exchange the M703s to M705s. From what I have heard, the 705s is definitely different...

Actually I am more confused about bi-amping now. Anyone care to clear the air here?

First I have no experience or hybrid. Second my concern about the unstable voltage and third life of tubes and the endless types of tubes for different sound characteristic. I am really weary going...

Hi I am sure there are more recommendations to come but I read in the forum on rule of thumb 1:1.62:1.62 H:W:L. Note L is 1.62 of the witdth. The other accoustic treatments are far more important...

Thanks Halen
What would be a good tube amp for a budget of $3000? I can sell the accuphase for btn 2 to 2.5k and maybe a little top up to make it to $3000 to get a better amp new or used. I would...

hi Halen
Its 150km from my place. I do go there once every couple of months. Are there good shops up there? M?n Cai is much better than Hatu at least prices are cheaper and the air is cleaner. Hatu...

Thanks Halen and ravaneli
I ship my accuphase from US and it cost me $450. I have to pay another 15% tax and that bringd the price close to buying local. But as mentioned they are in the south so...

I am listening to music in the living room and does not play it loud due to accoustic limitations. I am going for details and a little warmer voice. The accuphase has a little bright voice especially...

Well, let me rephrase my question: there are very little choice of high power amps here in the north as most are still using those mu`multi channel karaoke amps. Mcintosh amps do pop up once in a...

I am very happy with the m705s with my accuphase e406. Used amps are hard to come by here and new amps are way too expansive due to the high tax. Any contribution from this forum would be greatly...

I had ordered a audioengine đ1 to test if it improves the sound quality of music from my com. I may pass this on and get another dac if it improves the quality, not expecting a night/day diff but...
