In Reply to: I think Pro Amps are as good as Audiophile Amps... posted by Chris on May 30, 2004 at 14:44:35:
hello,As a former owner of a Crown Macro Reference, and two fully balanced, monoblock, no negative feedback, Monarchy Audio SM-70 (pretty much the best there is in terms of Class AB, and Class A amplification, respectively), I can say that the $800 Carver ZR1000 pro-amp, outdoes both, hands done, no questions asked.
Moreover, pro-amps are ALWAYS more reliable, as they have to be. Also, they are ALWAYS a better value, as they have to be. Professionals don't have time, patience, or money, for bullshit claims and pretty faceplates.
I think the Carver ZR series is one of the best things to happen to the audiophile world in a long long time.
I laughed my ass off when I first heard it, due to the sheer musicality, sound quality, transparency, resolution, speed, and everything else that makes this amplifier so much better than just about everything else. And the fact that it costs 3 digits. New. With a warranty.
peace,
