Buckeye Amps: 2nd Generation Purifi EIGENTAKT 1ET9040BA Amplifier

The screen name and attitude was a dead giveaway, but we all knew it would eventually end up in a meltdown one way or another.
I always had suspicion about said Member being someone else we all know and love...
Next time you suspect send us a report. We could have caught this sooner. And reduced the BS factor. Unless you secretly enjoy the chaos. :oops:

I just didn't want to come across as crying wolf or be seen as trying to silence criticism of my products had I turned out to be wrong.
 
What a mess, thanks mods, and glad I have been spending less time here lately so missed the drama.

One never wants to be the one crying wolf, but I tend to report a lot more than I used to simply because I got tired of the same old actors and same old endless debates. I like to give the benefit of the doubt, but all too often it ends with days or weeks of trolling off-topic madness (anger and/or insanity, choose your definition, either works) and just makes more work for the mods in clean-up. (I help moderate another forum and see this constantly.) If something feels a little off, then nobody need know if you report it, and the mods can decide to split out the post(s) into a more appropriate thread (or delete them) and determine if the user is in fact a reincarnated (or not) troll. Wait, or worse respond (post) in the thread, and you just create a bigger mess to clean up.

@Buckeye Amps Now, since I'm too lazy to read back, I am curious where the AP analyzer and updated measurements stand?

Returned the AP last year for refund.
New measurements have been confirmed and mono's will be back to Stereophile for retesting soon.

Thanks Dylan, I remembered that, but missed what you are using to replace it? Cosmos or something like it? Or third-party test lab?
 
Can anybody with access to the stereophile review spoil what the 8-ohm 1% THD figure is? A rough guess of where the elbow on the 8-ohm graph is would also be helpful.
Starts climbing in distortion about about 420, to 425 watts (into 8 ohms), and hits 1% really close to 450
