thank you so much sir blue, sa totoo lang, its been quile a while na, i think around 5 years na nawala ako dito... napunta kase ako sa car audio, pero after spending much or so much on car audio plus yung pagod ko, i was not satisfied as compared to my home setup before, kaya nag decide ako mag go back, buhayin yung HT ko dati and plan na for my stereo setup... wala pa naman ako right budget for the complete set ngayon so sourcing out information muna sa mga current lines available...

I'm about to set up my HT. I'm a newbie who learned a lot from this forum. My question is, I have an Onkyo 1009 with Paradigm Studio Series as speakers (all are not yet installed. I'm still waiting to finish my room construction). I also have a 5 channel BADA amplifier. Is it better to use the BADA amp on this setup or just hook the speakers directly to the Onkyo receiver? Thanks a lot

Try connecting the onkyo to the bada ext power amp. You might like it ;D

sometimes, the shorter the route of the signal from the source to your speakers the better for the sound...but YMMV..... ;D
That's OK, you can like or dislike anything you choose. That's the wonderful thing about the freedom

Significant ba yung power output difference ng BADA power amp and the Onkyo 1009 at all channels driven?

Yeah, yung main speakers mo kabit mo sa BADA tapos yung surrounds at center sa onkyo. ;D

Para spread ang work hehe!!!

Medyo natawa lang ako ng maisip ko to:

PARANG BAGAY ANG JAMO speakers sa BADA amps  ;D

Ano JAMO? BADA???  :D

I would try using the bada in all 5 channels or at least all the fronts L,C and R and then the Rears sa AVR and see which is better.

This thread discussed a lot of humming issues way back 2009, do the new users or the newly acquired units still exhibit that humming sound? I must admit, BADA is a very affordable power amp and it would be tempting for anyone to purchase it.

At all channels driven sir Louie parang mas malakas ang BADA, 135w @2 channels driven yung 1009, the BADA is 120w L&R channel + 110w center & surrounds.

Magkaiba lang sila ng design. Both have general advantages and disadvantages. Saka may magandang Class D amp and may maganda ding Class AB amp, may panget na Class D amp and may panget din na Class AB amp.

A decade ago, Class AB ang default choice for sound quality tapos Class D ang choice for power and efficiency. Because of the development in Class D amplification, good designs can now post performance numbers comparable to high end Class AB amplification. Switching noise, bandwidth and HF interaction issues had been largely addressed. Dumadami na ang Class D amplifiers sa high end audio because of this.

Simpler and well-understood ang usual causes ng poor performance ng Class AB amps, so most amp makers build their own discrete Class AB circuitry. Dahil mas maselan ang Class D design (saka most of the time ICs ang gamit), the majority of makers end up sourcing proven modules na lang from suppliers which they integrate into their design.

Andyan din ang less common Class A, Class B, Class G and Class H designs. Di sila common kasi Class A masyado wasteful sa kuryente at mainit, Class B efficient sana pero madalas medyo mataas ang distortion, Class G and Class H hindi ganun kaworthwhile kung di naman high power application (like sa pro audio and subwoofers).

You're welcome, Master Jamy. Hahakot ka na naman.

Wala ako nyan. Sa CD-R King speakers lang ako nakikinig.



Pero madami talaga amps ngayon. Wyred4Sound meron na locally kung gusto mo ng Class D na maganda. They use the same modules as far more expensive brands. Separate ang power supply per module kaya halos walang IMD maski isagad mo ang load sa lahat ng channels.



Baryang barya lang sayo. Teka, OT na tayo.

maganda yun explanation ni bro Ivan, pero think of it this way... most technologies in the automotive industries are tried and tested in races, then adopted to commercial applications. Yan Class D matagal na yan, although in the industry it is still considered as a young technology that still needs to prove a lot and improve a lot.

ang maganda lang, QSC, Crown and other pro audio amps are making use of the Class D, and these companies are very well funded, meaning better research so in a short span of time reliability should not be a problem anymore.
