“Yes,as I spoke to you before some period that unit should be replaced with new one or to recycle! To repeat - due to lack of specific material it is imposible to repair it! All the best, Dejan - NAT” This was the last mail from him , after that I had two calls … better no repeating what he said …this thing sounds great , when it works, but if not …. This Guy No Way And that’s the only reason why I wrote this , It is not style too … this is how I understand you and one of the reasons I like what you do. Cheers from Germany

I know that at one point there was a change of engineer and the designs changed. My personal feeling is that the earlier designs were OVERengineered. Far too ambitious to simply play music in my opinion. The new designs have taken a different approach and are simpler and more robust. No more complex logic chips, etc., shipped in flight cases, etc.. Thats why this $8K amp went to my repair guy and was fully tested and calibrated then it was sold for $2500.. I gave $3500 trade in for it and paid $500 for the tune, so its a very worth it purchase. The buyer has already called me to tell me how great the amp is. Now if there is a problem and he cant fix it , its the dealers job to make it good for him, NOT the manufacturer. So as the seller, I make sure the buyer does not get shit out of luck.. I would then offer him something else. Clearly you had no reputable dealer that you bought your NAT from, or that guy would be offering you something else.. Thanks for watching !

Brilliant vid as usual, you pick some great music to play also, love fink 👌

Have had this one ! Great , but it produces shorts when using volume control. Asking NAT CEO for Repair - he said , no repair and recommended throwing it in thrash... 8 years old amplifier I bring it back to the seller - NAT - good sound but for me Never Again Thrash Now a Rike Audio Romy 20Se plays - not that power but more of everything else ;-)

I know the CEO. He is the founder. There is NO WAY he said throw it out. That is a LIE. He is VERY GOOD about helping us with any repairs.. I've been selling them for 5 years. Only had one preamp with shorts from the old design. Dejan sent a brand new updated volume control board and we replaced it. No more problems...

Not that it doesn't sound great but zero box coloration (the closest today) is the Rockport Lyra ( or my diy one, perhaps even more). No single cell loudspeaker is free from vibration.

@OCDHIFiGuy

11 күн бұрын

Thanks for your opinion. Rockport uses sheets of mdf sandwich material with viscoelastic (goop) in the middle then spray paints the box. 100% synthetic materials. Fischer&Fischer uses sheets of natural Slate. 100% natural material. When making love to a sex robot rather than a natural woman, the physical orgasm is the same. Some people prefer organic build structure. I am one of them.

@fullranger3435

@@OCDHIFiGuy the lyra is double, cast-aluminum cabinet with special viscoelastic inbetween. The concept works very well also with mdf. You heard it. Single slate almost catches up with double mdf because of greater mass and a little better innate "damping" compared to granite and marble, for instance. With double cabinets, we just change league. Of course, single can get close or even surpass a poor or cheap double built. Exception are speaker builts which are neither single, nor double cabinet. One of them is the "no cabinet", planars. Nothing can beat "no cabinet" in its working range and in the proper room. All other designs are there to address planar or dipole disadvantages, while maintaining their lack of cabinet colorations. Fischer x2, are great, uncolored loudspeakers, no question, I almost said that. Looks aside, perhaps they're even better than Acoras and at a much lower price. They're not better than Rockport Lyras, imho. ( As for "natural vs artificial" look at the cones, this is what you hear, the slate is of negligible acoustic presence. I disagree with this approach, of course, even though I listen to paper, instead of plastic).

2 different things. No class D can do what a SET does in terms of ethereal flotation. Class D is lower distortion and far better efficiency.

Mikey I hear conflicting philosophies that it is the speakers you should spend the majority of your money on first then the poweramp and other people say the opposite what do you say?

@OCDHIFiGuy

My ratio is 33% speakers, 33% DAC, 20% Amp, rest on streamer and cables. This ratio can change depending on overall budget.. far more important than how much money is the quality of what you are buying. Spend a lot on the wrong speaker and you will yield bupkis
