Winning and losing in the court of US law is very different than the cost and annoyance of dealing with it. I just spent $600k to defend a 90k$ lawsuit that the idiot wouldn’t drop or settle. Pyrrhic victory. Took 3 years before it even saw a judge. Thanks for stooping down and dealing with...

I prefer dual subs, 2 12s

Go with the purifi amp. Might want a nice sub with your savings with a big room. If you just want to shit on your friends with how much you spent look at DCS, Wilson, Magiko, Daugistino, and other boutique brands.

Have three buckeyes now, all perfect with quick answers to any questions, I’ll buy more for other rooms over time

Why the ”room” has such a massive impact on sound ranking order of investment, ie speakers and room > amp > dac > cables etc

I have some Sonos, it’s fine for background music. They sounded a lot better than rando monitors and speakers I had laying around. my wife can work them without opening a ticket with me…

See you should be able to prove this statement with a calibrated mic. Swap the amp, level set, run sweeps. I can absolutely prove that placement and toe in have a repeatable effect with this method. I have not been able to replicate this with cables or amplifiers. people who do this tend to...

This thread looks old, but I would recommend changing your placement and seating around before worrying about an amp or cables being a "match for speakers". The difference a few feet or toe in can make is profound and measurable. Not enough bass? move towards wall or corner Too shrill? toe out...

Bravo, excellent audio question to test and validate

Just wanted to throw Buckeyeamps a cookie, I have 3 amps and everything has been fast, personal, and professional with tech and discussions. I’m sure this will be handled the same. I got caught up in the purifi issue and I had the replacement parts in a week. Try getting that service from a...

Do you have another amp a little further up the price curve you can test? Like a crown XLS or a basic emotiva/parasound/ati Great data

Also your marantz might be just as hot with the internal amp off, fair warning

Purifi and crown are room cold, my class A and AB are not. If heat is driving your decision it’s pretty obvious to go D or the like

While their support is crap, it does work well enough, try a clean install on a fresh OS

Without any dsp to integrate them will be terrible in most situations
