T+A R 2500 R Amplifier: The Most Features and the Highest Sound Quality?

[@dougschneider8243]

I'm happy to say that at this moment, an R 2500 R is powering my big speakers. I'm going to be writing something about it fairly soon.

Another high end amplifier with Meters. ❤️

[@dougschneider8243]

And if it's of any interest, they seem like good-quality meters that add quite a bit of visual flair to this unit.

Indeed!

[@uprajsingh]

if speaker b is closer to the listening position and speaker A are far away. And I want to run both Speaker A+B - is there a way to control the gain of Speaker B just like we have such gain control in AVR's?

[@soundstagenetwork]

No. The same output is simply sent to both sets of speakers.

Lifeless 1 bit sounds.

[@dougschneider8243]

It does have a 1-bit DAC section, but that's only part of the whole -- it has a PCM DAC section with selectable filters for PCM material, which is what most people are going to use.

R2R DAC sounds musical, i have many of delta zigma DAC . Not organic sound. ​@@dougschneider8243

German audio is overpriced and very average soundstage.

[@dougschneider8243]

If you look at the build quality and the engineering involved, I'd never call T+A's products overpriced. I've been there three times, I've seen the effort that goes in. These aren't mass-produced goods made overseas.
