    AN Parallel Triode 300B - 20 Watts/Channel

    Did you try with Class A SE tube amps? Unfortunate part - 20 watts is not enough to drive Summit!! Other optional speaker for low wattage SE amp is Avangarde!! Totally different sound!! At the end of the day - What Gordon said is right - Music is very personal and each people has different type...

    AN Parallel Triode 300B - 20 Watts/Channel

    Tube amps are different Beasts!! Hi Gordon, If you have not heard Class A SE setup then I request you to listen and compare with SS amps. If you are a Jazz lover, you will find a lot of difference in the tonal quality (specially brass and vocals) !! When I had Plinius SA-102, I did side by...

    AN Parallel Triode 300B - 20 Watts/Channel

    I have sold my Summit at a very good price couple of months back. It is not Hypothetical it is purely mathematical Interpretation. Top of it, the AN designer also believes that ProAc would have been a better and easy load for Class A 300B SE Tube amps where current delivery to the load is much...

    AN Parallel Triode 300B - 20 Watts/Channel

    Thanx Yes, credit goes to Peter and Andy for their creation. Even lots of credit goes to Christian A Bryant of Xerocomm Audio who had suggested lots of mods compare to the original circuitry. Sounds terrific with ProAc D28!! Matches very well with Cary SLP-05. Filamnet supply from Guido Tent...

    AN Parallel Triode 300B - 20 Watts/Channel

    Hi Gordon, I have a very a few basic question for you - 1. Can Summit support low wattage Single Ended Class A Tube amps? With my limited knowledge I observed that impedence curve for Summit is not stariaght as ProAcs which means that Summit can be powered with only high wattage Transistor Amp...

    AN Parallel Triode 300B - 20 Watts/Channel

    You are absolutely right!! Currently I am using EH 300B. Just waiting for the break-in peroid of the Double C core Output TX and replace Filament Supply. Subsequently, I will use KR 300B.

    Just to tell you guys that I have just assembled Audio's Notes Dual 300B. Could manage to use the best components - Silver Wiring, Double C Core Interstage & Output TX, Jensen Caps, Jensen Four Pole caps, Vishay Zfoil resitors, the other resistors are all non-magnetic, Filament supply from Ten...

    ProAc D28

    Hi, I really do not know what mod you had requested from AES when you purchased. I had ordered for a) Silver Soldering throughout b) WBT Topline speaker Binding post c) Additional Balanced Input connectors. Since I found that they are asking far too much for the Jensen Copper foil in Oil (Much...

    ProAc D28

    I am enjoying my D28 ProAc to the hilt after I sold my Summit. It may be my Summits were not suitable for my Room (25' by 13'). Specially at low volumes the ProAc's sound is immaculate - cannot be compared. I have modified my AES Six Pacs Amp heavily - recently upgraded the signal coupling...

    Transferring LPs to CD

    If you have a reasonable budget, why don't you go for Alesis Master Link 9600 (mod version by BPT). It is a recommended product from Stereophile. It is a an amazing product.

    Vacuuming Your Stats

    I am lucky top get rid of Summit because of these silly problems. I will do the maintenance or enjoy music!!! I am more than happy with my ProAc Response D28. They are more musical than Logans!! I don't think I have any regrets!!

    Migrating to Proac D28

    Proac D28 Vs Summit I am now with my ProAc Response D28 for about 3 weeks. Mind you - no acoustic treatment in the room which I used to use with my Summit. I cannot express my pleasure with my new speakers. They just sings. I don't think I have any regrets. It has spectacular imaging, the mid...

    Migrating to Proac D28

    I am an electronics engineer by profession. Honestly, I do have so much time experimenting. With due respect, I do not agree with you that true audiophile will experiment with the tone controls settings and if you notice that there are hardly any controls in "top end pre-amps" except Volume...

    Migrating to Proac D28

    With due respect, theoretically ML's myler diaphram may be lighter than hair, but all sudden done, D28 is sounding much more musical and the bass really goes very low without any boom. I am really tired with the critical placement issue with ML speakers and the humidity and dust factors. Top of...

    Migrating to Proac D28

    Goodbye to Summit Received my Proac Response D28 straight from the manufacturer - UK yesterday. Installed today after standing the speakers overnite at 16 Degress as recommended by the manufacturer. But jokes apart - there is a Day and Night difference between Summit. I do not know how these...

    They finally made it!

    Thanx for the nice words for Proac. In fact, I am replacing my Summit with Proac D28 and is on the way from England. Hope I wont regret. I opted for Proac D28 for various reasons (Summit was over loading the room, regular maintenance etc ). D28 I belive is amp-friendly so I can drive with low...

    Migrating to Proac D28

    I tried D15 with my setup. They sounded stunning.I cannot audition D28 here in Kuwait. I am relying on a dear friend of mine who has Summit and D28 & D38. He suggested me to go for D28 since he has a similar audio gear and a small room like me. FYI ,I migrated to SL3 FROM B&W 802 Sr 2 13 years back.
