I was using for two years a pair of Acoustic Reality 1001 monoblocks driving
Requests.The sound was ultra top class!!!
The experience of the synergy between Summits and 1001s was quite
traumatic.
There was not normal operation at all!
After that a communication with Jim Power solved almost 100% the problem.
This is the email with the necessary informations:
"...I understand perfectly the problem.
There is a solution. We will provide Adamco with a pair of circuit boards which will take care of everything.
What is occurring is the Summit is interacting with the ICE amplifier of the Acoustic Reality. The ICE amp has a DC offset which does not allow the Summit to detect that music is playing. It is essentially 'blinded' by the DC. It assumes that no music is playing and it is time to shut down. We have now modified the design of the Summit power supply circuit design to allow it to work normally with the DC offset of digital amplifiers.
I am copying Adamco to alert them that I will be shipping the required circuit boards for you.
Thank you for your patience. Rest assured, we will resolve this for you.
All the best,
