Kevin's "I Want a Phase Linear 700 B White Oaked" thread

[ksrigg]

Which do you like better...the 400 or the 700B? I think you have a Rev A board in your 400 and a Rev C board in the 700B? Obviously 1000 watts is louder than 550, but what about the overall sound from each. Do you hear differences in the tonal qualities of each amp? Lee also had his new analyzer by the time he did your 700B and probably was able to perhaps "dial it in", but Lee may want to speak to this as well. Thoughts ?

Yea.... Im not gonna even try and describe the difference...... Love them both. I couldnt touch what Mark said about them in a eariley post !!! He said it best !!!!!!!

Quoted from an earlier post:

"Kevin is going to have a hard time contrasting the WOPL 550 and the PL 1000. He has a hot PL 400 that sounds so sweet, really a case of all the right components coming together in perfect structural and electronic harmony - and the PL 700B, a brute powerhouse with mountains of reserve power that just begs to be opened up and blast the room with tidal waves of sound that insults your physical body while soothing an inner feeling that results when you finally know you "might" have enough power."

I don't know, Mark was a lot more descriptive when he got his running.

 

[ksrigg]

Yup.....my thoughts exactly. come on Kevin......you gotta have a story to tell about these amps and their sound compared to the Haflers...
