Since I "forgot" to mention it before, the very interesting amp I mentioned up the thread is the Nat Audio Generator monoblock, a Serbian PP triode/SS hybrid of some sort. Now that I have the MA-9S2s, there is no reason for me to check back on t...

Hey Cat,Well..my first question would be regarding the application. The big Melq tube is already doing the bass towers...is it not enough current? And wouldn't a proper class A 100w amp with its low low efficiency require something like 1...

I think I have had enough time with this phono stage now to make a few remarks about it. In keeping with the spirit of this website I am not recommending this component, just reporting on it.
I got my unit off AudioGon after keeping my eyes pe...

I do not know this company but they might do interesting hybrids…

Hi, yes i agree that my solid-state amplifiers were not best choice for compressio drivers, they were my second amps when electricity was bad, otherwise I use a custom made 300B from La maison de l'audiophile for my system when electricity is v...

RomyBy hearing the rest of the Shelter line you will eliminate that curiousity and may find the answer also. Methinks the Shelter line will increase in time and become as confusing as the ZYX state of affairs.Mr Hanekom may also have some answers to ...

Here is another interesting hybrid. The gain stage is made around 5842 tube, most likely with feedback and the current stage is SS reportedly single-ended and in class A. They claim 150W, if it is in Class A and without PP then frankly I do not see ...
|
|
I wonder if anyone make, commercially or otherwise, any (good sounding?) a two-stages classe “A” hybrid running 100-200W into 8Ohm, with no feedback? AcousticPlan looks like tried to do something but their amp is just 50W and it looks they have...

The Vincent SP-T100 looks close
"The SP-T100 is a hybrid mono block with tubes in the input stage where voltage is amplified. The power output Amplifier circuitry works without feedback."
Nominal output power Class-A 8 Ohm: 10 Watt
Nominal ou...

Hi,Have peope heard any of the new generation hybrid amps out there? I have often such miserable power to my home that about half the time it was useless to listen to my SET tube system. I always had a back-up solid-state amp to use when I could...

Have you kind folks out there any recommendations?... tabletop or boombox type hybrid digital HD radios
The tabletop hybrid digital Sony HD radio was on sale for a bit at Best Buyhttp://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/538000-REG/Sony_XDRS10HDIP_HD_...

Another interesting thing: why not a lot of people make the single ended hybrids? I understand that single ended output has very low efficiency but still: it is only about the heat dissipation. I have seen some single ended SS amp. There was a strang...

I do not know what sound Silbatone demonstrated at the show. If it was not “accidently spectacular” (which sometimes happened at the shows) then it is irrelevant what it was. Conceptually Silbatone did not show anything new or stimulating that move ...

Stragely one only gets this effect for hybrid-SACDs that are recognized as that by the Mediaplayer, not all....

[quote user="N-set"] That all will give 5 stages if I'm not overlooking some posibility: 3 filtering stages, with the first one bypassable, the driver being at the same time the last filtering stage [/quote] It is 3 stages total not 5. You do not nee...

Merlin here is the Stereophile measurements on the Lamm ML2.1http://stereophile.com/tubepoweramps/1004lamm/index4.htmlAs you can see the rise in distortion vs. frequency shows only a small rise in distortion even down to 10Hz. This is an indica...

Romy have you tried Samplitude extensively, I have both Wavelab and samp prefer samp.Also with version 10 with Hybrid engine believe or not it is noticeably cleaner than older version noticed itright off the bat. Wavelab is good but find it quirky an...

Scott, is it your specific aim to configure an enclosure to "effectively" lower driver Fs? While this, along with an exponential increase in power, is a proven strategy for generating ULF, it seems like this approach creates more of a sealed/"IB" hyb...

Paul Excuse me for off-topic , I also have high power solidstate amplifier and I have some experience with high power solidstate amplifiers.Actually very few high power solidstate/Hybrid amplifiers are good and most of them are not ok.The problem is ...

Here is the link:http://www.rank-concept.deI have no experience with the Lamm ML-series, I just listened to an M-series hybrid amp combined with the Watt/Puppy 8. This performance was a single fake (though a pleasant one). I can´t say where was the f...

So, now I am overlaying the sonar map on top of the audio output sweeps, to create a hybrid audio map. This then means we create an algorithm to input to a suitable audio reader. I then place this reader between the source (eg cd, dac) and the amp. L...
|
|
Oh well sorry for the false lead, you are probably right that there was just something falty in my 300B but at least I found an amp that I really like.Since i have two outputs on my preamp(placette) maybe i'll look around for a cheap flea-power tube ...

I thought the B1 was Yamaha's V-FET and the B2 was a later "hybrid", but I suppose both are Vintage Sufferer's wet dreams. I have never heard either amp, anyway.I have heard a couple of the original Sony Esprit V-FET amps, however, and they were cer...

Hello!The moronic idea that bad + bad can become good just drove me to playing a hybrid-SACD with the Windows Media Player. First I thought I was right, but then the non-moronic regions of my brain told me this can´t come from the PCM layer...
|
|
I just installed a pure CD-drive. Same effect. I see two possible reasons:The Media Player adjust its Filter/Upsamplayer algorithm when it detects a hybrid SACD. Hard to believe. Second reason: The recognizable SACDs have a slightly different convers...

Rony,
There are two possibilities as I can see them.
First is that your new hybrid amp just simply better then you former amp. Between us in case of Threshold, Jeff Rowland or McIntoshes it would not be so hard to come by to a better am, not to me...
