    Ok, so...............

    i decided that although the PSS 1200 is tooooo much power for my six little JBL 2395,s with 2441J,s, that the PSS 600 does fit that bill. So I am endeavoring with Yuri to PURCHASE a customized PSS 600, optimized for my mid frequency application!

    Valve like sounding amps are not a bad thing, especially through the mid band!

    So I guess my deciding to have Yuri tweak an amp to my specification, and BUY it to use in MY bumper car system about says it all, dont ya think!

    Underneath the 2395,s are Altec VOTT cabinets, that Im loading with Eighteensound 15MB700,s!

    I have just been really busy, and even last night, which was slow, I didnt get out of here till 2:30AM, having been here from 11AM, and having to be back here by 10AM today!

    So you can see why I havent been online so much lately, and also why I havent finished with my system upgrades either.

    ...can't happen. Never will, irrespective of other "work" loads or other counter activity. This never dies down...

    Not only did the URGE hit YOU today, it bit me again, TODAY, as well! Yuri is making me a custom PSS 600 for my mid application! Monday the financials will be taken care of, and I should have something within a few weeks to rave about!

    This I have very good feelings about, because I already know the tonality of his amp through the mids! And the amp will be optimized for exactly what i am doing with it! His amp has that smoooooooooth tone through the mid band!

    Now Bo, Ill have to admit, I am an Audio Junkie as its 4AM here and here I am posting about audio! Anybody know of a 12 step program for Audioholics?

    This custom amplifier is an evolution of one of the studio amplifiers I am working on since 3 years time from now; all our “regular” power amplifiers taking benefit of all my investigation.

    This amplifier has the following characteristics:

    Same box and PCB (MKII +; Scott received an MKII one) that a PSS600 or 1200,

    2x150W at 4 ohms
    2x120W at 6 ohms (as it will be loaded by 3 2441)
    2x100W at 8 ohms

    40 000MF per channel
    2x 400VA round transformer (same VA used for a PSS600).

    Upon Scott’s request we will add binding posts, set the input sensitivity at 1V and remove the balanced IC (it can be placed back when ever you want, you will have to remove a wire link bypassing the balanced input stage).

    I am happy that the PSS1200 Scott is testing is very smooth, as Scott says it is smoooooooooooooooooooooooooooth.

    I intended such a warm sound as almost all amplifiers you can hear today (transistorised amplifiers) not only gives you pain in the neck listening at them for more than 10 minutes!

    Unless the recording is bad, you can listen at high SPL PSS amplifiers, never will your ear get tired and damaged in any case.

    And they have a lot of personality too, they sound well with the right tonality!

    MKII+ vs MKII:

    Deeper and more defined bass (perhaps what Scott was complaining a little);
    Warmer low mids;
    Mids more precise and even more present;
    Mids less shinny, if ever they were with the MKII board: I would say more graceful;
    A greater stereophonic image where sound is not only coming from the speaker area only: imagine that the stage is located between Los Angeles and new York and goes as far Alaska and of course up to the sky!

    Different words, same thing!

    You say the mids are less shiny, and more Graceful! Thats what I meant by Polite sounding! The musical notes are there minus the harshness associated with certain amps!

    I honestly feel this PSS 600 Special will do wonders with todays music, or any music for that matter! But I am fairly sure this will be great!
