which power amp ?

Postby DaleRoyce » Sat Mar 27, 2010 1:49 am

Looking at new mastering monitors (as you might know i'm thinking of a nearfield from Lenehan)
Now thinking about the amp stage. The amp will be fed by my Grace 904 Monitor controller.
Also.. Could i get desired results with an intergrated amp.
Suggestions?

when you reply to a post on a forum... that post goes to the top...

so when people say bump, they mean "they're bumping their post to the top, to get some attention"

pretty sure thats what it means, funny thing is, we all know what it means when we say it :P

Happy - very happy - with my amp: wandered into a garage sale in a back yard, walked past a grey box in the long grass propped up against the Hills Hoist, when I noticed what looked like a rather expensive-looking speaker connector popping out the back. I parted the blades and read the logo ATC. I asked - very controlled - what he wanted for this heap of junk, and he replied "Ahh... forty bucks, mate:I warn you, its useless: you can't use it, its too loud!"
I agreed to take the dud off his hands, and ran out of there as fast as I could.

Bump is a forward moion (think pelvic thrust)
Tilt is sideways.

I was too young to mis-spend my youth at a penny arcade, but my older brother certainly did.....

I'm not so old as to remember a 'Penny Arcade'
but old enough to have been excited by the original star wars and KISS pinball machines and lets not forget SPACE INVADER..

Back then 'Bump' was off the hip to maintain ball play and momentum between low scoring regions that would react to the smallest of contact by the said ball in play...............
Unlike Tommy i was no pinball wizard.. But that didnt stop the hours of comp and fun.
