Post Subject: Placette vs. the World.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 2/27/2007

Ronny,

I moved your post to the Placette thread. I hope you do not mind.

What I fine interesting in this subject is not that fact of Placette wonderful transparency - it a fact but that you (and I in past) were trying to challenge Placette with a tube preamp. Placette is juts one SS, discrete op-amp. It dos wonderful but I wonder if it even theoretical possible to have tube-based buffer that would even remotely approach the Placette transparency. With Placette Active in the chain it is absolutely not presented in system. I know, there are many preamps what would say it but so far I did not see any beside the Placette Active that really mean it and the can put the actual transparent performance behind the empty words. BTW, wait until you go to bi-amping world. Then the 8R of the Placette’s output impedance will be like God sent….
