OB5 AND F5-partner made in heaven ?
« on: 2 Feb 2010, 05:05 am »
I am still with OB5 !
Recently, I build the F5 class A amp from Pass Lab. The link is here
http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/pass-labs/121228-f5-power-amplifier.html?perpage=25&pagenumber=154
I use ordinary parts for the F5 amp.
I partner it with a Promitheus audio dac .
The sound is very good indeed. I must comment on the bass that is deep tight and fast. Off course the rest of the sound spectrum is also fantastic .
Listerning has become addictive !
Thanks to Danny for the design .
I think OB 5  is my best hi fi investment for the last 20 years.!
Let me play with it for a while before I start another of his design.

I like each of those...I have OB7s and an F5, though I felt that the F5 was a bit underpowered.  Kept within it's limits, it's a fantastic, yet simple amp.

My room is only 180 sq feet and the loudness is more than adequate.
The illusion of musicians in the room is very real .
This is also commented by a friend who is a band player.
despite the size of the speaker , it disappear from the stage that is deep and wide.
