hanggang anong oras kayo bro??? tryo ko humabol kahit last full show :D

Bro pag kila akyat sigurado mga 1 pm ang start minsan umaabot ng pass 6pm kung matapos. Eto yung last na sumama ako sa session sa kanila but that was 4 sessions before.  Lately ata with the intro of AMX amps mas tumatagal ang session kila akyat.

Palagay ko sabay tumataas naman ang kunsumo ng kuryente ni akyat dito . . . .  Bro wala bang entrance fee sa session  O0

He he he peace to y'all

Round 1 in no particular order:

1. Yamaha AX-1200 - surplus
2. HK PM-645vxi - surplus
3. HK PM-6100 - surplus
4. Denon PMA-780D - surplus
5. Marantz PM-50 - surplus
6. Sansui AU-α707 - surplus
7. Gainclone dual-mono - DIY
8. Gainclone tube-buffered - DIY
9. Accuphase E-305 - pre-owned

whew!  ang daming amps.... masasabi ko lang wala kang itatapon, thats why its so hard to dispose of just 1 amp, pati yung kaisa-isang forsale ni bga was pulled out of the market dahil may tinatago palang tamis.... kung gaano kahirap pumili ng top 3 mas lalong mahirap pumili ng bottom 3.... kasi paiba-iba kami ng kanta at sources hehehehe.

there was a suggestion to include the top 3 of round 1 in the next session.... kasi baka tamad na tayo mag final round since narinig na natin lahat..... so parang "oldies & DIY" yung theme ng round 1, and then round 2 is "oldies/DIY vs. new production amps"...... what you guys think?

Round 2:

1. NAD C352 - new production
2. Rotel RA-971mk2 - new production
3. Rotel RA-02 - new production
4. Hafler XL-280 - 80's pre-owned

5. Round 1 top 1
6. Round 1 top 2
7. Round 1 top 3

?. Rotel RA-980BX - pre-owned
?. Sansui AU-D907 Decade - surplus
?. Sony TA-F333ESX - surplus
?. Luxman L510x - surplus

medyo kulang pa tayo ng variety sa new generation.

suggest a little variation...top 3 ng oldies and top 3 ng either new production or pre-owned basta hindi kasing tanda nung oldies...also ung hafler power amp  baka hindi parehas ang laban coz gagamitan pa to ng preamp...kargado kung baga ;D

salamat din po for bringing your gears, marami na naman tayong natutunan na pwede gastusan hehe.

raul, sir galing ng tube buffer mo very exotic, sayang di natin nakuhanan ng portrait.

guys, baka gusto niyo na rin lubusin ang shootout at isama na natin ang mga separates at hybrid, tutal nakasama na yung hybrid gainclone ni master jojo.... lagyan lang natin ng price ceiling, so yung [hafler + contodo] ay pasok na rin kasi nasa price range ng mga new production amps sa list..... kung ganon eh pasok din ang [kenwood/thx + contodo] ko bwehehehehe.

Mga sirs (who attanded the shoot- out),

Pwede po ba malaman who's the best or at least the top 3 performer or at least a review of the strenght or weaknesses of each amp. At least bahala na yung reader. Kasi iba iba naman ang taste sa music ng tao.

Request lang naman po. If somebody is kind enough to share their experience hearing all these amps played. Not everyone of us is lucky enough to be invited or joined the session. And even if the host wants us all to be there, hindi rin naman lalo pwede yun.

Thanks.

i think bgavi's yamaha ax-1200 stood out as expected..... it is remote-controlled (motorized), so it has all the features of new production amps; smooth silver finish and glossy side panels looks elegant; and most of all it sounds musical & muscular at the same time.

john's non-inverted dual-mono gainclone was the smallest and lightest amp, but it had incredible bass -- fast, deep and detailed.

jojo's hybrid gainclone and bgavi's denon 780D were musical in the mids and highs.

just my impressions from very short & informal listening.... we were using all kinds of combinations: 2 CD players, one external DAC, a tube buffer...... it is possible that my impressions were of the source and not of the amp.... plus we played songs on one amp and not on the other, so it was very informal.
