NFB-1AMP as dark as Phoenix?
Hi! Read review about Audio Gd Phoenix and the dark side it has. Being near 10 years old I have reserves about buying second hand (pre-owned). Would the newest NFB-1AMP be as dark ? Will be running balanced LCD2. The dac is TEAC UD-501 and I really like it. Any consideration would be welcomed!- Caribou679

McINTOSH MHA-100 Impressions
Today at work l was talking with fellow worker who tells me he owns Mcintosh preamp and amp since more than 10 years and all the positives that come from such amp with his speakers.

Confused about impedance matching
Well I am happy of what I learn in this thread. I'll be a little less ignorant. @ProtegeManiac about the BMW:race_car::oncoming_bus::oncoming_automobile::red_car: when we talk of current delivery in ss amp, is this only a factor of loudness or is there more to it in regard of quality...- Caribou679

Confused about impedance matching

Confused about impedance matching
I am confuse about the comment that output power decreases as HP impedance increases. On the Schiit Magni 3 website it is stated like that but on the Little Dot MK IV specs it is the reverse.
