Acoustic Alchemy/Natural Elements (1988) - If Only

The D-Sonic M3a-600M Mono amplifiers are all set up and ready to rock the neighborhood. I wonder if 800 watts will be enough B)
D-Sonic m3a-600m Mono > McIntosh MC152 > Primaluna ProLogue Premium Preamp > Oppo UDP205 > Decware ZLC > Triton Reference > Isoacoustics Gaia 2 > Canare 4S11 Speaker Cables > Audience Forte 3, Anticable L3 & Shunyata Venom PC's

Every great performance deserves an Audience!

Hey, Anthem

Let's see, 800 watt amps for each Triton Ref, on board 1,800 watt amps for the powered bass section in each Ref..... I don't know, maybe enough???? :whistle:

You should be able to rock several neighborhoods!!!! Let us know what you think vs the Adcom, the McIntosh, all the other great amps in your stable.

Happy listening!

Fourplay/Fourplay (1991) - Rain Forest

Basically for $2200, the D-Sonic amps are a steal. Based upon the Pascal X-PRO Class D module, they are extremely dynamic and very easy to listen to.

It seems the newer class D technologies like Pascal, Hypex, ICE, have evolved class D amps to true easy listening amps with dynamic punch to boot. Your new amps aren’t broken in yet, but I’ll be interested In your impressions of dynamics with these 800 watt amps vs your other amps.

Enjoy!!

Jesse Cook/Free Fall (2000) - Incantation

Rick: the M3a-600M sounds so good, I cannot imagine them sounding any better, even with additional break-in. Their sound is reportedly 95-98% of the Bel Canto REF 600M, and $2900 cheaper.

Astral Project/Cowboy Bill (2004) - Delicately

More excellent sound this afternoon. Exceptional bass and airy highs. And just think, I have a full set of Herbie's Audio Lab stabilizers (4)12au7's & (2) Rectifiers that I haven't tried yet.
