Agree. Something like version control for clarity; e.g. ABC.xyz, where major revision are in the ABC workspace while minor revision are on the right after the dot notation 😊

Sorry, you comparing with SR-X9k / SR-007MK1? Would like to hear your impression

Look forward to your thots betw the Rock/Live to SR-X9000, if u had your Carbon

A blessed Easter to everyone It's a used set I got that if taken into account of freight charges from US, a decware SET would have cost much more to bring in A 50w 805 may be had for comparative price, but I'm not into more power more punch more dynamic chase, cause I already had it with my...

An older model of Audio Note izero was used

OK, I have to confess - instead of single-ended pure A, I went for push-pull AB (first 4w A) following hindsight from Goldwerger of his Taboo at 6w and opinion on rws 2.3w, coupled with the opportunity of a preloved 8w ecl82 tube amp made available, this is my opinion of a...

Oh yes Synergy, that's important, and it can't be acquired just by reading tons of reviews, except thru actual ownership and hardwork of tinkering, trying, testing with what you already have, to get a sound that you like best. Great opinion👍 that at times I forgets

Thank You, Goldwerger. Just read your feedback and it's a delight. Sound like the 2.3w Decware I'm eyeing a little underwhelming for iESL, or maybe I'll lookout for the Taboo SE84TS+ instead. decware may have made a switch from 2 to 6 watts sometime in their history, but it seems their latest...

Thank you, 10Q. Seems like a rms 2.3watt 4Ω (or 8?) output into iESL BAL headphone input hardly suffice

From iESL manual on Balance Headphone Amplifier Input: "..... It is recommended that amplifier should be able to deliver at least 10V into 64Ω, as much as 28V/64Ω are permissible." I wonder how it's translate to layman perspectives (😵?) in comparison to it's loudspeaker input which stated as ...

Fantastic! Look forward to your feedback on hookup to iESL speakers input. I’m looking at a preloved 2004 SE84CS Zen. With its basic design remains, i hope it doesn’t differ too much to latest ufo2. The speaker to 4-pin XLR look like this, which I saw locally, as alternative to iESL bal input

Let the expert do the tech talk on the subject, and there are many more experience audiophile who can give better explanation not here to debate which sound better, just personal preference on implementation that I prefer 😊

Not considering push-pull, just single-ended for continous flow of soundwave w/o having my doubt-casting mind wondering how the push-pull handles crossover.😅

Many thanks for all your input, much appreciated. Currently I’m already on a 200wpc (class A in first 10w). Although I’m happy with current setup, I have the itch to try out the SET amp, reading so much about its sweetness and musicality, esp vocals. I’m even thinking that if the decware...

Hi iFi, I been considering a single-ended triode (SET) amp to speaker input of iESL. Reading iESL user manual, the loudspeaker input is stated as : "Rating below around 10 Watt/8Ω may not deliver satisfactory playback level" Does it means that SET amp output of 2.3w RMS into 4Ω or 1.8w...
