Echobox Explorer Digital Audio Player
Hifi Trends writeup included this paragraph ”On the amp side, you also get iFi’s popular balanced design, which they tend to incorporate in all their amps, now from the bottom to the top. Now they also claim input from John Curl of Parasound fame, which can only be a good thing, understanding his profound influence on amplifier design.” That made me sit up and PAY ATTENTION. The reviews for it are outstanding, from the six or so pages I...

How Much Amplifier Power Do I Need?
I cannot tell you the number of times I have heard a conversation about amplifier power go like this: “I hear that B&W speakers need at least 400W,” or, “I heard that Paradigm speakers are very power-hungry.” The fact is, there IS a way to...

Why is it advertised as a balanced amp when its neither balanced internally or at the output (xlr measures the same as 1/4 inch) ? The only differences go on in the cable which are not a part of the product. Don't get me wrong it's a good amp at a good price but this type of advertising just feeds into all the misinformation in the audio industry.
I don't have this amp, and I don't know what kind of circuitry it contains, but it doesn't matter if it's not internally balanced, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't have a bridged output. Bridged outputs provide four times the output power, but that's their only benefit when driving typical headphones or loudspeakers, which are inherently balanced anyway and derive no benefits from being driven by balanced drivers. "Internally balanced"...

DarkVoice 336SE OTL Headphone Amp
Sorry to be a party poop, but I do know a thing or three about valve amplifier design. $400 is a ridiculously insufficient amount of money to work with when it comes to working with valves (go price a 6H30 or KT-120/150!) & the high voltage parts they require. A good valve amp would have Output Transformers, which even made in China are going to $15-25 USD EACH unless defective/surplus RUBBISH was used. As for saving that cost to go OTL, you...

HELM Audio DB12 AAAMP THX Amp
Hi Aznablery, maybe I can help break this down. Yes, most audio amplifier circuits used in smartphones and laptops are designed to use cost effective components that can sit on tiny footprints and draw little battery power. Inherently those circuits are prone to all kinds of distortion, but that distortion doesn’t follow a linear output curve. Like most traditional amplifier designs, there’s more distortion generated as the amp works harder...

Massdrop blurb: "Built inside the unit is a uniquely designed BD amplifier in which the output is generated differently between the positive and negative speaker terminals, and can easily handle fast response times." Some online review article: (http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue62/millenia.htm) "The Millenia amplifier uses an unusual output stage configuration that is essentially a Class BD arrangement, which is different than the more...
