1: General Asylum, RE: Plinius 9200- Very Poor Review in Hi-Fi News (0.00)
Posted by Leo loves music on 2022-07-11, 17:05:40 (174.44.130.241)
I am 100% sure that the wall voltage in Mr Martin Colloms's house was too high (244V) for this AMP to sound its best. If Mr Martin Colloms could supply the voltage as on the sticker on the back of the .......

It is not a simple tweak. I have been working on the proof of concept prototype for many years. I completed it may be two years ago? .......

Sure the Plinius 9200 likes Dynaudio speakers. I also used it to drive Sonus Faber and Proac speakers. The result was acceptable, just OK. However when I used the AMP to drive a pair B&W 801s, it was .......

A refurbished V2 is $349 and V1 is $299. The difference between V2 and V1 is only cosmetic. I first got a V1. It has scratches on the case. It won't power on so I had to return it. The V2 I got looks .......

A Cambridge CXC is much much better. You can get a refurbished one from their ebay store. ===== I hooked up the Cambridge CXC V2 in my system. It sounds a little more refined and offers a little mo .......

CD player as transport is usually better than DVD/SACD player as transport. A refurbished Cambridge CXC at $299 is a good choice. They have a store on ebay. Or you can look for an used earlier Sony CD .......

The coax SPDIF circuit on this machine is cheaply and poorly designed. I will probably do a surgery on it to avoid throw the whole machine away. .......

I don't understand why Stereophile recommended Tascam CD-200. It sounds quite poor as a transport. I have a Sony X229ES. It originally only has an optical SPDIF output. I added a coax SPDIF output .......

Plinius 9200 is very sensitive to wall voltage. At +/-5%, it will sound very differently. From a warm sound to a bright sound. From a relax sound to a nervous sound. Whether you want to call this a de .......

I just want to explain why Mr Martin Colloms from Hi-Fi News gave Plinius 9200 a very bad review 15 years ago. If everyone has moved on and doesn't care about that review any more that is fine. ::: TO .......

I understand this thread is more than 15 years old. However I would like to share my experience with Plinius 9200. The manufacture is right that the AMP is very sensitive to wall voltage. The AMP will .......
