Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

I think I have now nailed it. Boazu 2 is finally going into production. Boazu 2 will be demonstrated on the jazz evening at Authentic the 3rd of May in Brussels, Belgium. On the 4th of May I will visit Sound Odyssey in Buggenhout, Belgium, together with Marco of Hexagon Audio. We will be there durin...

Re: How to: add a RELt5i to the tundra 2.2 Tarandus via hi-level connection

Don’t worry, it won’t cause any damage.

Tundra doesn’t care if the inputs are shorted.
The preamp is where the loading down happens, as the outputs are “playing into each other”. But that shouldn’t cause any damage either.

Re: The death of K400

I like them. And I definitely prefer the raw PVC to a cover in mesh. Mesh feels cheap to me, because all the cable-scam companies out there use it.

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises

I’m going to go against the grain here and say that although the A’s are a bit messy and the B’s more in control, there’s something about the A clips that I like. Initially I preferred 1B to 1A, but on the second track I started getting that feeling that A had something that B was missing. And I fel...

Re: How to: add a RELt5i to the tundra 2.2 Tarandus via hi-level connection

Zee, as I wrote above: You can NOT connect an Y-cable to the two line outputs of a Tundra stereo.

What happens is that the signals are shorted against each other. Yes, the level drops. And it sounds worse. And you no longer have a stereo signal.

Re: How to: add a RELt5i to the tundra 2.2 Tarandus via hi-level connection

You can’t join the left and right channel outputs with a Y-cable without them shorting each other. So that’s a no-go. However, if the Y-cable has a resistor in the region of 100k ohms on each of the signal conductors, the left and right won’t short and you’d get a mono signal reaching your subwoofer...

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

A brief update on Boazu 2: I remember I once wrote that some designs just fall into place and become great without much effort. Gaio was one of them. Boazu 2 is not one of them. And I remember the original Boazu required lots of tuning as well to find its balance. I thought I was done a few weeks ag...

Re: Broken Speaker Plug Socket on Boazu

Hi Pete! I'm sorry to hear your speaker socket broke. It's happened a couple of times since I started using them in 2012 and the main reason seems to be that they've been tightened too hard with the inside nut during the assembly of the unit. This has caused stress on the outer plastic ring and with...

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

is it detrimental (sound quality)to the integrated amp to have a pre-out? i ask because Boazu 1.0 does not have it but having a preout would allow buyers to upgrade easily by adding a tundra to their Boazu via a Pre out.

Hello tby! The short answer is: No, not to 2.0. But there will hopefully be an upgrade available from the current version 1.3 to version 1.x (x being a higher number than 3).
