Phase Linear 700B Amplifier!

Vintage Vibe review of Phase Linear’s first amplifier.

Beast of an amp...Bob Carver is a genius. His Carver, Carver Research, and Sunfire lines were beasts as well. Thx for posting

[@1JGP1]

I'd love to try one of the Sunfires. Seriously, I have got really close to pulling the trigger at least once :)

[@jb.2986]

@@1JGP1 you should my friend. We have a Sunfire Signature Seven, a Carver Research Lightstar 2.0, and two A760x amps. Powerful and accurate. No regrets.

I had an Audire pre amplifier and matching main amp. The first generation all solid state amp. No muscle, yet no line noise, so the filter caps were still wet. Beautiful craftsmanship.

I have the PL-700 Series 2; recapped and customized to put out 400 WPC. Its an absolute menace when paired with my ADS 1290 speakers. Being able to play studio recordings at a level comprable to a live rock show is quite an experience.

[@1JGP1]

Very cool indeed. Thanks for sharing!

I have the same model 700b.....and i agreed with you.....this amp is a muscle amp and the quality of sound amazing.....never give me any problem.....

They are now trading for 2000+ CAD. (in pristine shape)

[@MrCharlesray]

Just got one of this, I am hooking it up with a Vandersteen 3A. :)

I ran lots of phase linear 400 and 200s...I love those meters!!

[@1JGP1]

I know, right?! The meters are awesome!

I have this one along w 4 other Sherwoods. Remind me, the brand of that white flat speaker wire? I had that solid core wire too. Audio quest? Nice series of videos.

[@1JGP1]

Oh boy, I don't remember...I'll have to take a peek at that video again and get back to you! Thanks for the input on the videos, appreciate it.

Hey this is a kool channel im looking at hafler D500 amps you ever run them ?

[@1JGP1]

No, I haven't; However, I suspect they are pretty decent sounding. David Hafler made some good stuff. The D500's are his earlier efforts...Solid Amps.

[@sarahconner9433]

All hafler amps kick ass!! I installed many stadium systems with them never a failure!!! Clean...

[@DeanMichaelDorman]

Where can I get replacement knobs for these amps?

[@1JGP1]

Unfortunately, your probably stuck hunting for them on Ebay :( You can try a "parts supply" store as well, for example: partsconnexion.com You may find various knobs (of different styles & sizes) that might work. Good Luck!
