A1UC Posted July 28, 2020 Posted July 28, 2020 Heard a similar pair, not those, earlier models I would guess they sounded very nice. The only problem was the power needed, it took a bunch of WPC. They sure love power that’s for sure Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Moderators dtel Posted July 28, 2020 Moderators Posted July 28, 2020 They did sound great at low or mid volume, very airy and open. I was told the few hundred WPC they were hooked to ran out os steam to go any louder. Should be a nice change in sound, it's good to listen so something a little different on occasion. 2 Quote

Says in part "Use on IC’s, transformers, circuit boards, any where noise could be a problem". Did not say if it was effective on spouses. https://www.thecableco.com/black-out-ultimate-paint.html Quote

I can not really complain about the JJs that are in there now but am really looking forward to doing some listening this weekend with the new bottles in there. 3 Quote

I see a Wyred preamp on your stand - you like it? I have the same black/black model and like it with some amps, not so much on others. I don’t find a low gain amp matches well with its passive/active design. But it is damn quiet and again, with the right amp, a hell of nice preamp. Quote

It has only been used in front of my Xilica XP-4080 which in turn feeds the TL 2A3 for the 402s and the Classe, CA-150 for the FH-1s. It has all the connectivity that I could need with multiple XLR ins and out along with single ended connections. But you are correct about it being VERY quiet!!! Last weekend I rolled my newly refinished La Scalas out from the garage to the patio by the pool and then ran a pair of 25ft XLR cables from the STP out to a pair of bridged Crown D-75s. Instant remote system with volume control, via the gain knobs on the D-75s 1 Quote
