The DC thing is overblown here. Don’t care a whit about that. I’d like to see Topping do the fixes required and I’d like to hear a head to head comparison to RME ADI FS, my current DAC.

Yes you are missing something if your ears would prefer an I phone to a top notch TT setup properly.

Data, nice. 44deg C is 111 F. Not hot, not abnormal

Yes, hot here has no context, just a random observation with zero data and no definition of what is hot.

I’d like to hear comparisons if anyone could…,,,

I’d definitely run them on separate amp channels.

It won’t work. You need separate preamp/amp for this. Integrated is no bueno unless it has pre out/ in and then you’d still need another amp to actively bi amp

Weakest link in those subs is the plate amp

Blown a few tweets and woofs, can’t say I’ve ever toasted a midrange. Launched a 15” AE driver with 14 mm Xmas outward so far it got stuck out and then it fried. Many more tweets than woofs. Hearing not great but typical for my age, am lucky

In a nutshell weed is like BASF used to say “we don’t make the products that you use, we just make the products that you use, better”

Excess funds in the checking account

I do find it amazing seemingly sane individuals will spend tens of thousands of dollars for copper or silver wire with connectors on it. It mystifies me I must admit

118-120? Wimpy. Mine averages a cool 124V, power!

I guess my ears work more or less. I bought the loki+ and liked it, so then bought Lokius and didn't like it (didn't sound good to me) and sold it. Kept the Loki+ and still using it. I use only the two end controls, don't use the two middle ones. Based on reviews of both seems my ears...

Root cause and correct source(s) of voltage sag before investing in hifi

In the pro audio driver world the Fs of this driver lower than most 18".

I recently built some speakers using Faital Pro 12rs430. I really like them and can recommend them. High power handling, high Xmax, low Fs, efficiency not bad, I think 93db. Goes lower than most all 12 and 15" pro audio bass drivers. Bought them from European supplier to save bucks.

Response looks great to me

Sure do listen in a room. What I am suggesting can be easily measured on both counts, regardless of your opinion. Damping factor also depends on amp output resistance and resistance of load, which includes resistance of wire. With monoblock wire length therefore resistance can be minimized...

Better channel separation, higher damping factor are two reasons that come to mind instantly.
