I agree. It would save some time to have it in the manual. Great amp though! What preamp are you using in front of it?
Coda no.8 Vu metres question
Ok, so to those who have experience with coda amps, the VU meters have two settings, in first setting the meters are not moving very much and in the second they move quite a bit and at relatively moderate listening levels, with certain music can even flirt with the red. I can only assume the first less sensitive setting is watts? But the second....? Can anyone enlighten me before I start to bother the good folks at Coda?

@zlone yes, great amp, I agree. Currently I'm using a Plinius M16. Quite content with this combo. |
Still looking for any reviews whatsoever on Coda amps (that aren't by StereoTimes who raves about them and is the only review ever I see). Yes, I know, I know, they intentionally don't advertise, don't need to and keep their prices low by not advertising, yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyone have any reviews from any credible source - other than Stereo Times? If the amps are so incredibly good I'd expect there'd be other reviews. |
@speedthrills, do these reviews not count? https://www.stereophile.com/content/coda-technologies-s5-power-amplifier https://www.enjoythemusic.com/superioraudio/equipment/1104/codas12.htm https://www.dagogo.com/coda-technologies-cs-amplifier-review/ http://everythingaudionetwork.blogspot.com/2016/08/ean-audiophile-review-coda-technologies.html |
Well, I can't point you to any reviews but I can describe my experience. This is by far and away the best amp I have owned or had over here or heard at other homes. It's staggering. It's delicate and powerful at the same time, you can inject any audiophile superlatives here because it does them all and this one is still breaking in. Every few days I sit in front of the stereo it's a surprise and a revelation and it just keeps getting better. I believe the word of mouth is a far better indication of an amplifier or anything for that matter than any paid review out there and by the way they are all paid. Especially ones in any magazine. So there is that |
