Apollon 1ET6525SA ST Amplifier Review

[MarTec]

thanks..will have a look at the datasheets.

One more question regarding the 12V trigger passthrough possibility: will the amp and for instance a connected subwoofer (via Trigger "THRU") start simultaneously with the source (which is connected to the amp´s Trigger "IN") once the source "awakens"?

That's the idea, yes.

No, he's supposed to build and ship some amplifiers. Much more important.

It's kind of the group's showcase... it's like Topping posting pictures of the B200 instead of the B100, but apart from that, everything's fine.))))

Maybe you didn't get me right. I have a very personal interest in him building and shipping my amp now. I'll happily let him update the website later.

The performance looks fantastic, but do those slide switches on the back for selecting gain and bal/unbal bother anyone besides me? I have repaired a lot of old radios that had slide switches like that and they were always a weak point. I suppose there are varying quality levels available, like everything else, but I have a hard time trusting them not to go intermittent. I think I'd prefer to see dip switches or even jumpers on header pins over those slide switches.

i'm waiting for mine to arrive. but I also would have preferred dip switches

What more do we want? Let’s focus on speakers to reduce their distortion!

We can do that with current drive amplifiers. See my post here if you are interested

Can anyone advise me on whether this amp would be a good match for system using the Schiit Freya S as a preamp, preferably in passive mode? Sources include Holo Audio Spring 2 DAC and a turntable connected to a Herron Audio VTSP-2 phono preamp.

S does not seem to exist, but F does.

Yes, but the OP asked for compatibility with the Apollon amplifier. To make an intelligent recommendation, we need specifications such as output impedance (at the very least) and its variation with frequency (even better if available). These specs are never provided in Amir's tests, but by the manufacturer themselves. Since the product isno longer available, it'd be hard to make a recommendation to the OP.

Mine arrived today, very happy with it so far, works very well
