Hlly Tamp-90 Ta2022 Chip "a True Pearl" - Page 3

I'm glad to hear your HLLY T90 is better! Good luck with your mods to the HLLY T20. Yes, it would be nice to have someone review all of those amps!

Actually, the intermittent struck again. We do have 120 volt service btw. Hopefully, Hlly will get back to me.

I really do like pretty much everything else about the amp and were it not for this issue I'd call it one of the best audio bargains I've ever seen. I paid $180 for an NAD 3020 30 years ago. The Hlly is way beyond that and I think it's arguably a much better deal than the Sonic Impact was given what you get. It's just that if non-audiophiles bought the thing and had to deal with the muting circuit going off all the time...they wouldn't go near the product.

Sorry to hear the problem is still bugging you. I agree that the HLLY T90 is one of the best bargins out there. I'll also mention the Sansui 8900ZDB as a great bargin under $250!

Well, it's not a bargain of any kind if a bunch of them can't be turned on and play music :}

It is possible that I do have issues with the AC in my house, though all other things you plug in at our house work consistently.

mfong,

I have been thinking about your power problems with your HLLY T90. I was thinking maybe you want to try the Monster Power HDP 2400 that I have. I have a second one now. It may be what you need to control the power into that amp? Just a thought.

thanks Tripath. I may do it, but I do have issues with hooking up a 129 dollar power stabilizer just to get a 150 dollar amp to work properly :}

fwiw, the Hlly continues to sound really good and I'm not even using a pre-amp in our living room. It's good enough that I'm hearing the limitations of the other equipment, as in I need to start thinking about dacs.

I can relate about spending the cash. I had to get a 2nd Monster HDP 2400 though for the Sansui system in my office. I only have my Toshiba DVD player's plugged into the Monster HDP 2400 in each system. It however makes a huge difference in both systems! Each system's sound is sweeter, wider, and more liquid sounding with more resolution / dynamic range.

I tried my NAD Pre-amp with the HLLY T90 for about 5 minutes. No good, it just clouded things up. The HLLY sounds great all by itself. I'm glad you feel the same way about it, it's nice to have someone else to compare things with. It is an outstanding amplifier!

The HLLY is starting to break in a little bit more also.

I've been listening to my latest generation HLLY T-Amp 90 for the past three days now and I must say that it is phenomenal. I have had TA2024 based T-Amps and the HLLY T-Amp 90 is a much better amplifier for less sensitive speakers and demanding music. There is simply more headroom and authority with the T-Amp 90 compared to the lower power T-Amps available.There have been complaints about the first generation models being noisy...In fairness, I can hear some hiss if I put my ears directly up to the tweeters, but from my listening seat, or when music is playing I can't hear any hiss. With that said, the T-Amp 90 is not as quiet as the other 12 volt T-amps, but it is no more noisy than any other amp I've used. The build quality is good, and the amp feels nice and solid...all in all, I am very happy with this amp.

I think there was a "fix" about that hiss but I can't seem to find the link now... I hope someone else can be more helpful!

Hello, everyone!

I am sales manager of HLLY Electronics, I am really glad that some people like TAMP-90, Yes, there is hiss problem with the first version, But the second version resolved the problem, Now it is the third version!!

HLLY will have TA3020 amplifier in the 2010 year, SO need the people here to offer HLLY some advice!

Also HLLY will sell the pre-amplifier for the TAMP-90, 4 inputs select,
CS3310 audio volume control, LCD display, remote control, use AD797 OP AMP
Hope you will like it!

Regards

David gao
