Jag sörjer inte längre varken Adcom-steget eller någon annan förstärkare. Vill återigen betona att HCA-tvåans kvaliteter är av ett sådant slag att jag numera "lider" av ett svårartat hifi-lyckorus! För att dela med mig av detta bjuder jag en länk och ett citat ur ännu en lyrisk (förstås) recension, nyligen publicerad av Positive Feedback:
The Right Tool for the Job
Let's get something straight. This is a special product. A completely new design. Not something that's been around the block, had some new parts, wire, or a bit of circuitry changed.
This is a new technology that I believe will become the basis of the future of solid state amplification.
Want an amplifier that is easy to listen to, an amp with gobs of detail, smooth highs, most natural mids, slamming bass, and most of all accuracy? An amp that sounds at home with every type of music? Have low sensitivity speakers, first order crossovers, planars, or electrostatics? Don't want to take out a second mortgage to drive your system? Well then, let the transistors in the PS Audio HCA-2 do what they were designed to do. Switch.
You owe it to yourself to try this amp. Is it perfect? No. Am I going to pay the shipping price to send it back? Not a chance. The HCA-2 performs like one that costs much, much more. This is a very unique component, one I predict that will be much imitated.
One of the very best amplifiers I've heard at any price.
