    Faulty amplifier after 12 months

    Yeah I did, first time was after a week or so, then just happened again. Just worried that when it is out of warranty, what do I do - the dealer is the other side of the country to me!? Never had an amplifier just not turn on before, even ones that are +20 years old, hence the worry.

    Faulty amplifier after 12 months

    I bought a new amplifier last June and since then, it has failed on me, the second time being yesterday. The unit will not switch on at all, so could be something as easy as a blown fuse. However, the fact it has happened twice in just over 12 months does not instill confidence in the unit. I...

    Thanks for that, which was the warmer out of the sugden and the abrahamsen? And do you know how much of the abrahamsen operates in class a before it goes class a/b?

    Another set of amplifiers to consider

    Anyone got any views on the 4 amps, I guess in terms of a warmth scale would be good?

    Another set of amplifiers to consider

    Yeah they are a bit off the radar but I really like that warmer sound so I think these are the best around the 1k mark. Don't think I'll be able to directly compare any really, my local dealer only does croft and the others involve a long commute out of cornwall! The LFD is a bit beyond my...

    Another set of amplifiers to consider

    Hi all I'm also nearly at a state where I can upgrade my amp - currently feeding some castle harclech S2's which can be a tad bright - so want a lovely, lush warm sounding amp that doesn't sound too slow with faster paced stuff. I think (!) my shortlist is:- Xindak PA-m ii class A (ex demo)...

    Abrahamsen audio amp v2.0

    Well I've heard the a21 and a21se and yes both sounded very much like my a100, so using my amazing powers of deduction the up should be comparable to the a100. I just love that class a warmth. Gotta start saving now.....

    Abrahamsen audio amp v2.0

    did you get it from iq or did you go direct to abrahamsen on their website? If dealing direct with them what's the sales process like and Is it correct voltage for the uk, do you get 3 pin plug? All very basic questions I'm sure, just curious myself, can't get these Amps out of my head! please...

    Abrahamsen v20 up versus xtz class a100 d3 opinions please

    Yeah did see them but couldn't see any uk retailers of the jungson. And yeah I've been reading with interest iq speakers experiences with the abrahamsenaudio kind of what got me hooked in the first place. I've heard the sugden and owned a mf a100 class a amp in the past, is the abrahamsenaudio...

Anyone heard both of them or got any strong opinions about either of them?also has anyone any advice...
