| 2026 best deal in audiophile class D stereo amp? @lak yeah they are still the top of my list, I've been talking to them. Leaning towards them because they are the local LA boys and price for power seems among the best deals. And GaNfet is the latest and greatest, right? Not sure yet if I will... | |
| 2026 best deal in audiophile class D stereo amp? damn, so many choices! | |
| 2026 best deal in audiophile class D stereo amp? you know I've been reading so many stereo reviews in the last few months (first on speakers and now on amps) and 99% of what you read is so positive they are almost all useless. I'd really love to see a Class D shootout of all these sub $2k range... | |
| 2026 best deal in audiophile class D stereo amp? Thanks for all the recommendations folks! This has been very helpful in getting to know the landscape of audiophile class D. I know 300+ watts is "overkill" but I also know these speakers can handle that much juice and having been in the SET lo... | |
| Speaker ideas for KR Audio Antares that aren't Klipsch or Horns...? hey thanks for the recommendations everyone! (except you deep-333, you seem like a low IQ guy with very lousy opinions who can just go suck a duck, hope that helps) | |

| Speaker ideas for KR Audio Antares that aren't Klipsch or Horns...? excellent, thank you, those are brands I've heard of but haven't auditioned or researched yet. On my radar now! | |
| PART ll: To All Klipsch Heritage Fans always used SET amps on my Klipsch, after many years and many amps I would stick to 300b. I've got some triode labs 45 monos I'll probably sell soon because despite the glorious mids at the end of the day you are going to miss that base. I've tr... | |
| 2019 300B tubes that are worth the money? well as the OP I thought I'd chime in with an update on my 300b status as this thread has somehow stayed alive and relevant. As I stated previously, I ended up with a (supposedly) lightly used pair of KR tubes that I bought for $500 and was very ... | |
| My Cary amp - the story of a hum and a bug my personal experience with Cary repair has been pretty bad. They replaced a single tube on a mono block and it cost me $700. I would never send them an amp for repair again and I would never buy another Cary product. (too bad, they are beautif... | |
| 2019 300B tubes that are worth the money? So I ended up buying a used pair of KR 300B's. The price was right ($500) and I'm very happy with the sound. Hopefully they will last, but so far, so good. I was a little surprised at first as overall I would describe them as more laid back, qu... | |
| 2019 300B tubes that are worth the money? thanks for all the input, folks. though in truth I'm feeling as confused as ever. These things are so expensive, I'm just afraid of shelling out 500-1500 dollars and not being able to tell the difference. maybe I'm happy and should just leave w... | |
| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ? Yes, I'm in the SET cult too. I have multiple SET-ups, all driving various Klipsch heritage speakers. My main set is Cary 300B monoblocks driving Chorus speakers with a tube pre and mostly vinyl sourcing. But my second, and actually preferred s... | |
| What improvements did you hear in going from entry level to high end Audio? For me its about the size of the soundstage, transparency (i.e. hearing the smallest details of the recording), and dimensionality. I do think what type of music you are listening to is key. I'm sure for heavy metal death rock there are other pa... | |
| Best 300B any update on 300b tube opinions for 2018? Looking to roll something exciting into a pair of Cary 300SE monos... :-) |
