Transcendent T-16 OTL with Fostex 207? anyone tried it?

OzMikeH · 29th January 2008, 07:05 AM

Has anyone used one?
Looks like an interesting amp but the low output impedance might cause a lack of bass with the 207. There's plenty of power there, 15 watts into 8 ohms and even more into 16 ohms. Will this cause rising high freq response with the 207's rising impedance curve?
I'm having trouble getting my head around it.

The price is very good to Australia with the current exchange rate. The monoblock version looks tempting since it's so much cheaper than it used to be.

either the 15W stereo or the 40W monoblock if power is marginal.
Both with low noise supply option.

Fortunately my airconditioning is free so all of those filaments arent a problem.
