    PreOut Voltage Question

    so, it appears there is now an option these days on the miniDSPs to get 2Vrms out of them, which for many years was not the case for those who have had the 0.9Vrms output, and have had amplifiers downstream that need 1.4-1.8Vrms to hit peak output, what options are available to people to boost...

    hey all so i snagged up a pair of def tech bp7006s as part of a 5.1 system. for literally no reason other than it was just too good of a deal to pass up ($150 for the entire haul) the internal amps are shot there are some nice toroidal transformers in these things (49.5-24-0-24-49.5) with no...

    What class amp in an avr and can diy be a marked improvement?

    sorry for the lengthy title, this is really more a multi tiered question the amp sections in an avr, they are based on a class-? design. a/b? h? a?....I assume a/b? and generally are they shit? what do they even do within their model lines for the improved power? better transformer? more heat...
