You might want to sit down before you read this: I contacted Klipsch and let them know that I had seen this was an on-going fairly common problem and wondered if they were covering it with an extended warranty. THEY ARE REPLACING MY CINEMA 600 WITH AN 800!!! They no longer make the 600 so they are replacing it with the 800. I'm so gobsmacked, I'm telling myself that I'll believe it when it shows up (in 5-10 business days). I'm wondering if I am delusional when I read the e-mail and receipt for it! That was a short shelf life for the 600 so my guess is they quit making them because of the power supply problem. This problem has to be costing Klipsch a lot. Not to be ungrateful but I hope the 800 has a more robust PS. At least, now I'm ready. If it has the same power supply, when it goes, I have the one I just got from Amazon! LOL! (and bonus: Now I know I need a set or Torx drivers!) Thank you Klipsch! -
I am not aware of any production quantity records of these, nor PWK being heavily involved in the run. Sorry. -
I had the predecessor of that one for a little while. The ATLP-5. It would not allow me to hook it up to a preamp like it stated it would. Maybe the newer model corrects that. Not that particular cart, but it's a Microline and that is great! They operate with less weight because it fits the record groove better, don't wear out the LP like some rounded types actually do. I've preferred that brand for decades because of the clear separation of the high end, the clean bass and all around tonal qualities of Audio Technica. & I loved the chunky look of the ATLP-5! -

usps is baaaaad, m'kay? They mark stuff as delivered when it is not delivered! Like yesterday here! And a dozen times before. * My doorbell takes videos of any & all activity on the second hundred feet of my drive up here! no notifications, No video = nobody was here. They forged my signature once a couple years ago when I was in the ghettos of a sc swamp! That forgery was listed as an alias when I closed on my home!! I don't have aliases. Not only baaaad but criminal. No, they're exempt but I did get my $300 back. "There's no Place Like Home!" huh Dave? Updraft before the storm can be pretty bad, then you know what's coming! Glad you only got rocked and not rolled!

I think you've got a good handle on it. Speakers that are easy to drive and present a benign load don't usually benefit from more watts. Now when I say "easy to drive", I don't mean speakers with less than 95 db sensitivity. I mean speakers like the Heritage series and comparable ones. I still maintain what you are hearing is that you prefer the sound of the more powerful amp, and not because it's more powerful. Because it just sounds better. This may be for several reasons. 1) You like the sound of tubes over transistors 2) The Fisher has better parts and a better circuit design 3) The Fisher has a more robust power supply Or some combination of all of the above. But I don't think output power is what you are hearing. -
Lot's of interesting comments and information here, but it isn't answering the question that is bugging me. I'll ask a different way... It supposedly takes 1 watt of power from the amplifier to drive my Forte IIIs to an SPL of 98 dB at one meter on axis. A 8 wpc ACA has more than enough power to do that and a 28 wpc Fisher is not going to require more than that same 1 watt to achieve the same SPL. Someone please correct me if this is not true, but it seems to be a law of physics. If this is correct, the question is, what is(are) the benefit(s) of the additional output power of higher output amp? I'm not asking with the ulterior motive of suggesting no benefits exist. In fact, in my response to 82 Cornwalls above, I'm saying I can hear differences that I think of as beneficial...things I don't hear from the ACA at the same SPL. My desire is to understand why. Obviously, it is not all about SPL. Maybe the differences boil down to topology and the output power potential has nothing to do with it, but posts from others supporting the use of higher output amps suggests that is not the case. I'm still curious. -

Increases in gain don't equate to more power. This just means that the amp can be driven to clipping sooner or later depending on the output voltage of the source. Amps that are designed as a push/pull amp usually don't sound as good when switched to triode. Most manufacturers will agree. This just gives the owner more flexibility. Then again, as in most things audio, this is subjective. You may like a pentode amp better when switched into triode. My take is different. -
I'm working on a trade deal... my speakers and cash. At minimum I am looking at replacing the crossovers, a total cleaning, possibly new tweeter diaphragms and maybe new woofers (depending on their condition). At this point I'm trying to decide what they are worth given their condition. -
Unfortunately, no difference because my caps were intact and looked good.
