Benchmark says they can achieve the same result with the Class A controlling amp and high frequency switching power supply. The Emitter is loaded with capacitors – some 1 million micro-Farad worth. "I compared the AHB2 with my ASR Emitter I Exclusive Blue, which is a traditional Class AB amplifier design with an out-board transformer and battery for the pre-amp section. Luckily I found a comparison on Dagogo, though subjective: Which pair will be better? I will also drop from 8 ohm X 160w power to 8 ohmX100w. I don't want to go back on the source / pre side when I am going forward technically in the amp. When it comes to DAC, I am very confused because Benchmark DACs are not as good as Qutest in the measurements here, and there is no review of DAC2 HGC. Also the model that i have is the less powerful Emitter 1 model) The technical comparisons of both amps are below: I am afraid to make such a big changes because of I am happy with the current sound. I do not have as much technical knowledge as you do, so I would be glad if you could guide me again to make right decision.Īt first I thought of replacing my Chord Qutest DAC with SMSL SU9, but listed very cheap Benchmark AHB2 and DAC2 HGC duo in the second-hand website in my city. Then, based on the reviews and comments here, I replaced my expensive Dynaudio Special Forty speaker with the KEF R7 and I am very happy with the improvement that I got.Īctually, I am very happy with the current sound, but if there is a better for cheaper, I think why not replace. But even in this short time, you made me that i had very pleased decisions.Īt first I invested in acoustic treatment by selling my expensive audiophile cables.
