Here’s the rub depending on the content I’m playing, I can sometimes leave the source gain at or near full volume. The AMPX is usually driven directly by an exaSound e22 DAC, via a set of Soundstring GEN II Beta 2-22S XLR to XLR cables… For a while, I also had a set of sealed, stand mounted two way ARCONA 40s, the subject of last quarter’s review. At the moment, it’s driving a pair of equally satisfying Fritz Morel 6 vented, stand mounted two ways, nominally rated at 8 Ω.
To my dismay, I didn’t win the recent Powerball jackpot, and thus cannot afford such exquisite engineering.Īs you may know, I have a modest power amp as my reference, the lovely 40 W into 8 Ω Lindell AMPX. At the very high end, you can purchase a preamp and power amp from the same vendor and they will work, in concert, to dial up only the gain needed to drive the load. It seems there’s always too much or too little, never the perfect Goldilocks amount. Sometimes, it’s the little things that drive you crazy… take, for example, gain.
