In shootout comparisions to other amps the LeAmp after modified came close to the Aragon 8008st I had read.I do not know the price difference to a used Aragon 8008 ,but i wonder if it will have to be tweeked in order to bring it up to World Class amp performance like the original LeAmp.I think these new amps that are switching amps are pretty revolutionary and the components are great,but are they veiled like you find in so many mid-fi stuff? I use a modified B&K ST-202 that has no veiling to it.Recently I listened to Anthem and Rotel amps and there is that distinct veiling over vocals that I cannot live with.The veiling that I am talking about is alleviated by having a Class A\AB amp Bias'd forward to run more in Class A.I think that is the reason that Odyssey amps are so popular is they are forward bias'd to run closer to Class A which eliminates the veiling I am refering to. I am not trying to put down the product ,but rather get a feel for what it's performance might be.Will I need to get it modified to get the performance I am looking for like the LeAmp need or will it be setup so that it truely performs up to the sound quality of the other manfactures mentioned like ML or Krell.If so I will be buying a few sets for sure.So yeell me what I might expect. Thanks for reading my dribble!
The power supplies are very advanced as they don't need any fans so our computers make no noise.
The amplifier now runs at 81 degrees C after about 10 min.
Le Amp 2 has an adjustment for setting the bias more Class A. All amps that are biasd to run class A run hot.I am eager to hear these babies though.There is a pic Nathan or another has a pic of frying an egg on a PASS amp.Saves on the cooking bill.
