Amplifier Bakeoff: Purifi Eval1, McIntosh MA252 & Benchmark AHB2

Cult boy, make some more money and buy more equipment before commenting further.

That is a bit offensive, and also scientific nonsense.

I will add that with the focal 906 and the purifi there was no compression of the microdynamics compared to the benchmark. So this problem depends on the speakers.

so lets say I have kef r3 and focal 906, which I do. Both measure well. Are you saying I cannot tell the two speakers apart?

Thank you for your contributions to the science!

Thank you for your contributions to the science!

you represent science, LOL. its a cult !!!

I am actually a musician, I play trumpet and piano. I love how cultists with no sound experience think measurements are everything and thats science for you.

Your original post about making some more money was both socially elitist and scientifically stupid. By the way, I do not doubt you can tell the speakers apart. That is the easy bit. Telling good amplifiers apart is the impossible challenge

 

[Gueco]

anyway I hope my advice reached some smart people thinking about buying an amplifier

Damn! you are the only human that has played instruments in ASR

We are not smart enough for you knowledge!

you need some real world experience

purifi is not good

Some people do not hear...

 

[Mathias]

Just placebo

Why are you sure there is no audible difference between the two amplifiers?

This was my real world education: https://linearaudio.nl/sites/linearaudio.net/files/Valves versus Transistors DCD.pdf

We all lack your experience in the real world, that include Jack Oclee from KEF who has account here.

In real life I am a scientific researcher, and know only too well about research methodology. It is easy to deceive yourself unless you control properly. There is a library full on how to do that properly.

you have strong opinions without even listening to the equipment, what kind of science is that. I am sure you would tell the difference, its not subtle.

Because you need to be sure of the opposite first, the other day a guy here who have both power amps ( The purifi and the benchmark ahb2 ), listening his ahb2 vs purifi thinks the purifi was a lot better




There will be another day that a random guy will post this Power amp sounds so much better and alive than this '' insert a random power amp '' !. It's always the same boring things.






People always waste his time in placebo things.


If this guy wanted dynamics he should look at the weak slope in the sub-bass region
This is the R7, the floorstanding of R3. Their F3 it's at 60hz.
Untere Grenzfreq. −3/−6 dB 60/37 Hz

Ok, that's quite clear to me... First day of membership. Obvious trolling on several threads.
Maybe you need someone to show you the door?
