    Can an Amplifier make this huge difference in sound?

    This could be a stupid question and a discussion and I am absolutely NO expert in this. Still I thought of asking this out in the Audiokarma so I can hear other peoples opinion on this matter. Over the past couple of years I have listened and owned various brands of amplifiers and speakers...

    Yamaha A-400 (A-402) and 4 Ohm speakers

    Thanks for the reply. I think i mistakenly read the 4 ohm part as if the amp is capable of running it. No worries, I have it hooked up to a Wharfedale Rubiance RB21AC speakers, they sounds pretty good with Yamaha. They are 8 ohms.

    Yamaha A-400 (A-402) and 4 Ohm speakers

    Today I bought a Yamaha A-400 amplifier after a long search. I missed my old A-500. It is actually a 100V Yamaha A-402. At the back of it says it can handle 8 to 16 ohms. Will a 4 Ohm speaker will under perform on this amplifier? https://hifi-wiki.com/index.php/Yamaha_A-400 This website states...

    Can you identify this amp?

    I got this class -D amp with tripath 2022 IC. I think it has a big toroidal power transformer inside. I couldn't find much info of the make or model online even with the image search. It sounds fine on my wharfedale rubiance 21ac speakers but sounds harsh with jbl lx44g. (Compared to yamaha...

    Schiit Magni 3 VS Asgard 2

    I've been using Asgard 2 for more than a year with my HD6XX and I absolutely adore it. I could listen to it for hours and no fatigue at all. About a week back i took to my friend who is a speaker user (not a headphone user) and let him hear it on his Tannoy 15 Inch gold monitors hooked to a...

    Burning a compilation audio CD (ancient stuff)

    Thanks for everybody's helpful replies. I used Burrrn and used the album adjustment and it worked. One track was little less loud but that track is usually super quiet, everything else worked perfectly well.

    Burning a compilation audio CD (ancient stuff)

    I know this could be a question asked over a million times, but I still decided on asking it on AK because I want to know your recommendation. Burning audio cd's is so old school, I know and folks of new generation may never even heard of it. (LOL), here's my question. I have some hand selected...
