After A200 were long gone from my home. I recall that with most musics the power meter
showed only around 1-30 watt. Maximum short time peak I did was 180 watt during movie or 1812 cannon shot. Somehow I think A65 may be powerful enough and can save a lot of $$$. Then I can spend the rest of fund to upgrade Sophia3 to Alexia. Back to Moon and I instantly feel the extra speed and power and also stronger bass. So that mean even A200 cannot make the same power and speed that Moon provided anyway. I gotta try A65 one day. It has less damping factor and lower S/N ratio than A200, however.

TOGA,
I would love you to try the A-65. There was someone selling one of his A-65's because one was enough for his TADs. That's saying something. I am sure the A-65 is a great amp. |

Someone once suggested that a pair of A-65's would handle the MBL 111f's I owned at the time as easily as my 1.2k's. I heard them driving the larger Focals with ease. Jim |

I am not a head banger so one should be enough I'll have to look into it.

Hi TOGA,
Don't remember if you mentioned it, but did you try the Accuphase amps connected directly to the DC-901, it has a digital volume control and with the Accu amps having a gain control (16dB at lowest gain position) you wouldn't have to attenuate too much. This would avoid the need for the 3800 preamp so more $$$ for the amps. |

You must have the golden ears, I find it very difficult to tell differences in small changes and tweaks. Then again, I dont have very lots of extra gear to be swapping in and out. Its to bad there's no way to easily and scientifically quantify the differences that people here. The adjectives people use are useful but also so subjective. In any event, love the review |

@Derek,
Thanks for your find words. My room was really nice ten years ago, now it is quite untidy. I can't show other angles of the room too. Also being quite large and rather dead, it require so much amplifier power if use low sensitivity speakers. I don't have golden ears like you said actually. But I can hear different of cables, wall sockets, IEC plugs in different plating. If you believe me, I personally don't think we can really have stereo system to sound like live concert. So we just tune our system to our liking, but it can't be that realistic. To be able to hear different of those stuffs I mention, the speakers must be quite revealing. toga P.S. and yes that Accuphase system is really gorgeous, at a price. |

@Derek, you have to see my room ten years ago. Now I messed it a lot and can't show any more, it's now like storage room. let's see it ten years ago (1998).
I believe in one of picture I still have Accuphase P360 (under cover), still regret that I sold it. Toga Last edited by TOGA; 11-06-2012 at 01:24 PM. |
