But it doesn't detract from the fact he ordered A and got B instead. Even though i like to use spades as well.

Congrats on the cable. Keep us posted on your impressions of it. smile.gif

Oh shit. I just found out that I can only buy it from Perfect Hifi. Ah ha! I just found out that they have a dealer on Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui in Hong Kong. Hahahaha...I will be there next week. No more Alvin.

Might even get the Nordost "Sort Fut" and V2 interconnects there. Depends on the price though.

So excited for this. Proud to present the new PS Audio BHK Signature Stereo and Monoblock amplifiers.

QUOTE
The BHK Signature 250 and 300 power amplifiers are the culmination of one man’s half-century search for perfection in music’s reproduction. Bascom H. King has designed amplifiers for many companies, some selling in excess of $100,000, including: Constellation Audio, Marantz, Infinity, and Conrad Johnson. This is the first amplifier Bascom felt was good enough to lend his name to. It is his finest achievement in a lifetime of work.

The BHK Signature is a hybrid design enjoying performance benefits from multiple design techniques including, a balanced differential vacuum tube input, balanced differential MOSFET power outputs, and separate, isolated, analog power supplies feeding each.

When it comes to musically controlling and powering loudspeakers, the BHK Signature has no peer. The stereo Signature 250 produces 250 watts/per channel into an eight-Ohm loudspeaker, 500 watts/channel into four-Ohms, and stable into 2-Ohms; enough power to satisfy even the hungriest of loads. The Mono Signature 300 doubles the output current with half the impedance of the stereo model. Each Mono Signature produces 300 watts into an eight-Ohm loudspeaker, 600 watts into four-Ohms, and 1000 watts into 2-Ohms.

Both are on the way. The Stereo is Rm35K, while the mono is Rm70K.

Tube input...MOSFET output...interesting. Class AB?

Haven't received the final specs yet but should be class A/B, judging by King's work on the Constellation. First 15-20W is Class A, then after it's class AB.

Can or not ler these days (after the YouTube video showing our custom officers makan like hell)?
The reason why I am asking is because I might drive to Kiasuland to buy the Esoteric K-05X CD Player instead of ordering it here in KL.
I have in fact ordered it but cancelled the order before posting the 50% deposit.
The reason is because the price here in Bolehland is MYR27,560 (no discount given) whilst the price in Singapore is SGD8,500 (inclusive of GST & still can nego).
SGD8,500 at prevailing exchange rates of 2.70 equates MYR22,950. A savings of at least MYR4,610 (perhaps more after nego).
I thing 4K+ is worth the trip to Kiasuland/Kiasiland where BAD FOOD assaults our tastebuds

Place CD player in passenger seat. Make sure box is open and the inside is empty except for player, say transferring CD player from old house to new house. Done. tongue.gif

That's what my friend did once.

rclxms.gif  I might just as well ditch the box...too many boxes anyway.
However I think not so easy these days after the GST. I flew back from Europe last month and my bag was scanned for the 1st time. Never happened to me before...I usually just waltz past customs. Lucky, as a precautionary measure, I didn't exceed my quota of 1 carton of fags + 1 bottle of the yummy stuff. Usually I go to my "favourite" duty free shop and whack about 6 or 7 cartons of smokes (on 1 passport) and a few bottles of the holy water.

Nah they scanned only. This one is massive CD player. Can say it's old one from collection. Using new slim blu ray player. This one for parents old house to use.

Kaotim. If it works you owe me lunch. tongue.gif

The most innovative point is, it looks so weird, but people prefer the sound of it, and even compare it to dozens of multigrand speakers...hmm brows.gif

There are idiots out there who compare the over priced JH Layla IEM having bigger soundstage than the obviously miles better HD800 full sized headphone. Don't buy into the hype man. Try the damn things first, then only decide if you wanna buy it.

For that price you might be better off with the DALI Rubicon bookshelves.

Bros, I just checked out the Dynaudio Evidence speakers at CMY in Gurney Plaza and these are not small speakers ler but stand up over 6 feet in height and heavy as shit (over 110 kg). Didn't get to sample it as the salesgirl there thought someone wearing slippers was not capable of footing the MYR200K bill so she should not waste her precious time serving me. Maybe I'll get John from CMY Sg. Wang to set it up for me.

The one at Gurney was hooked up to a couple of Jeff Rowland amps.

What made you think it was small speakers in the first place. HAHAHAHA. Have fun testing. tongue.gif

Aiyah...last time my mother says study hard, I never listen but go after skirts hard mah, so always ponteng English class lah, so cannot read specs. Now koyak oredy lor... Alamak! Where got people look at specs one ler? Look at picture see nice or not first, then go testing sikit, if like then ask for the price, then later save for one century then got enuf to buy lah. 200K ler....GST alone also 12K (enuf to eat wanton mee everyday for almost 5 years!!!)

So big speakers maybe cannot buy lah cos my missus equates size with price. If she found out it cost 200K+, then surely die straight straight oredy.

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. Champion lah you. I posted this in a audiophile group the other day. I think it suits you. tongue.gif
