nice color scheme!

 

[sant430]

Thanks! The color scheme's part of a bigger project! I'll have pics of the entire perspective when everything arrives all well and good

 

[jamato8]

Very nice! I look forward to seeing the combination.

 

[robojack]

Wow, that one looks like it's made of wood!

That's real perdy sant430. Nice matching pouch. I got the black one but it came with this hideous royal bluish pouch. heh

I am feeling this amp though. Not sure what it is. Don't have to patients to do any controlled testing but I am loving it myself. Listening to Faust's first recording and it just feels so smooth. The fuzzed guitars are not overly harsh; very pleasant sounding.

Yah, I've been eyeballing the Co Meet Thread on and off. I don't know if I'll be able to go yet. It's looking to be an event worth going to tho'......

I just wanted to toss in my fifty cents here, I freakin love this amp!!

I own several portable amps, a good home amp/cd player setup, It's not mind blowing, but I have some good stuff and I don't use anything but the Predator anymore.

It just has the best most musical sound I have heard. It also has the best bass of all my equipment, and it is the smallest amp I have.

The build quality I would agree is amazing. The tolerences are so tight, it's so solid and the fit and finish... wow!!

I think it is so amazing that Ray has managed to pull so much sound out of such a small amp/source combo, and made it fairly affordable as well.

I just dig it and want to listen to it forever. I'm a Predator man.

Dude, your review was great, thank you, and sorry for the long post guys. I start talking about the Predator and bla bla bla...

Thanks for your impressions. How many hours do you have on yours?

mine is 3 hours and still counting ....

 

[Del Griffith]

I am around 260 hrs. I am happy to say that the bass is really coming through now. When I first got it I missed the bass switch on my p2 just a little. Now the bass is tighter and more there than with the bass boost on my p2. The sound is beautiful in every way. I look forward to reaching that 500 hr mark. Slow going being I don't have the patience to leave it continually...I put it in burn-in mode for 20 hrs a at a pop in between sleep and work. Sometimes I let it go a couple of days at a time.

 

[anadin]

Can someone please reassure me that my Predator is going to sound better than it is now.

Im around the 85-90 hour mark and it sounds terrible in every way.

The sound suddenly changed today and it was all for the worst can anyone chip in and and give me some advice, is this normal around that time.

It sounds so bad that I keep thinking its faulty.

Flat dull no bass and lifeless whats gone wrong!!

 

[jamato8]

Let her run in. The review has information. If it stays bad then maybe something is wrong but let the signal keep going through it. I wasn't happy at 300 hours but then . . .

What phones are you using?

 

[anadin]

At the moment im using the DAC with asio and winamp.

Im using Sony MDR-SA5000's.

I use a Mac. Well are all the settings right? Do you have another amp to compare to?

Listening to a live recording of Pink Floyd right now with my Ed. 9. Exsolent and Pred. . . . .
