That is the same outfit as Onkyo.

I don’t think you (and most cases) need an external amp. But if you want an amp, I think the ATI AT-1800 class AB 200 WPC series is excellent. Comes with 7YR warranty and has among the best reputations for being awesome. Even the lowly ATI 60 WPC distribution amp passed the 1-ohm torture test...

The differences between NcoreX and purifi are so small there will be no audile differences.

Class D amps have come a long way. Back in 2011 I picked up the whole Polk LSi line. That Polk line had been out for ten years and Polk was running a half price on the whole line. I was going to get their LSi-25 which by the way had a Class D Amp inside. Every Polk member advised against me...

The MA9100 looks like a beast with 9 channels of class D amplification. States 140 watts at eight ohms and 240 W at four ohms, I wonder if that’s across all 9 channels? It also looks like it only has a single subwoofer output, but does come preloaded with Dirac. Really light on details so I...

...over time. Output devices are much better today and things like output impedance and load invariability isn't really an issue with most modern amps. Some of today's best Class d amps exceed linear in distortion and noise performance with added benefit of efficiency. That wasn't possible in...

He doesn't care what anyone else thinks. If he uses the speaker, then it's all good. Otherwise, they suck. :D One time he was trying to convince Gene and others that one of his in-ceiling speakers was fantastic - even though Gene has listened to those speakers in the past and thought they were...

No I can't explain why the different types of ratings are being used in manuals or marked on the rear panels (outside of perhaps where required by regulation)....I also wish they'd be more specific about spec conditions. I'd also like to see beefier power supplies in avrs generally. Goes not...

H Hello Peng, Thank you for your response. The concern with Class D Power Amp is that if it’s above 200 watts then chances are that it might overpower my other speakers - JBL 630/625C & S.F. Aster which are of 150 & 125 Watts. Even Sonetto II G2 is of 200 watts. So in this case, the only...

...great precision. According to the spec the inverter is referred to as a switching design. So this means that each inverter has a 380 watt class D amp. That probably accounts for their high efficiency and very good distortion specs. Hopefully I have explained this to all parties...

What power to weight ratio is meaningful may depend on a lot of things but class d is just not comparable that way generally..

Same question for the OP - what do you mean by “everything”? I have a small integrated amp hooked up to a tv through the rca outputs and that covers 90% of “everything” I need from that setup. It also has Bluetooth connectivity which covers the other 10% when I want to stream music from my phone...

...Parasound A21+ and I don’t believe overkill is real, but underkill is. Get it, you will love it. It’s on sale now also. I’d be cautious on class D and I say this for one reason. Almost all of them for some reason only have a 1 year warranty (WTF) and at the most 2 years. Nobody can seem to...

I've been tempted in the past to try some of those cheap Chinese amps. They have all sorts of tube amps/pre-amps and class-D amps available but it's a total "crap shoot". I only use AliExpress for parts that I can't find locally. Some test and repair gear is available too but I would first...

I have nothing against SVS. It's just not my style of speaker. I'd likely choose something from Wharfedale instead.

There really is no option but to replace the amp. There is integration between woofer and mids. They were and are very unreliable speakers. Move on.

...limited knowledge in researching for a pre main amp, I thought the Nobsound NS-04G PRO Mini Digital Power Amplifier HiFi Stereo 2.0 Channel Class D Home Desktop Audio Amp 100W+100W would do what I needed. Found Nobsound store on Ebay that ships from USA. Just need verification that it is what...

...in for repair and uncertain outcome there. I've been looking around at 8 channel amps under $2K and have narrowed the choices down to several class D models. In rough order of current preference I'm considering: Buckeye Hypex NC252MP VTV Hypex NC252MP Monoprice M8125x Starke Sound Fiera 8...

If you have speakers that present a load of 1 or 2 ohms, you need different speakers!

The Class D Purifi amps is now the way to go. Class D amps are more efficient which means they draw less current than any Class AB amp. Other advantages is that they are also more compact and heat less than any amp with a different output configuration. It's mostly the heat that shortens the...
