Title: Some questions about CSP2 Post by Steve Deckert on 12/07/09 at 18:01:12 Quote:
Hi Thomas, Yes, you would have to send it back and have us re-wire it. Alternately, you can take it to a local repair tech and have them call me directly for directions on how to do it. It will drive both the DT48E and the AKG K701's although you'll have more air and detail with the AKG and other higher impedance phones. The 6N1P's that I ship it in the amp are the warmest and smoothest. You can also use 6922's which are more dynamic and a little better focused, or 6DJ8's that have a touch less weight and usually the best air and detail. Rectifier tubes also effect the sound but with those you just have to have a couple different ones to try as it changes from system to system. All the tubes this unit uses are available in current production by several manufactures except the 6N1P which is Russian NOS. Still plenty of those around too so no foreseeable issues. Big advantage is no negative feedback, superior transparency, no dryness or grain, no fatigue. - Steve Deckert |

Title: Re: Some questions about CSP2 Post by CRESCENDOPOWER on 12/26/09 at 15:44:39 Please read the designer’s notes. The true test of any designer is his, or her ability to adjust. One would be lucky to find 3 other manufacturers at this time that had the ability to put their arrogance aside, and make a headphone amplifier on the same plane as the CSP-2 for the money. The funny thing is 2 of them specialize mostly in lower impedances. Since owning the CSP-2 for over 2.5 years my search for a headphone amplifier has come to a standstill. As far as headphone amplifiers are concerned the CSP-2 is not an amplifier for today, but an amplifier for life. It is without question one of the top 3 audiophile products I have ever owned. |
