BHK Pre and BHK300
Hi all,
I am seriously considering moving on from my long owned and faithful McIntosh C2200 and MC501 amps and upgrading to the BHK Pre and BHK 300 amps. I also may go all in and get the new Power Plant P15 regenerator. I have a PS DirectStream DAC and it is superb. I use Raidho D1 speakers with a pair of JL f113 subs and the JL CR-1 crossover. My current system sounds wonderful but I’m ready to move up to the next level. I’ve become a huge Paul fan and I think both the engineering and service at his company are outstanding. Are there forum members that have switched from McIntosh to PS? How would you compare them? Any feedback from BHK owners on your experience? Anyone hear PS with Raidho speakers? Thanks! |

I moved to the direct stream dac and direct streammemory player from accuphase 900 and 901 and am glad every day that I did. Better service, better sound, and much lower prices.

Ever consider the BHK amps?
BTW, I love TAD CR-1s (Andrew Jones is awesome) and that’s a terrific kitchen system! |

I haven’t been able to give up the accuphase a-200s for anything as of yet. There are many great amps out there, but I’m holding tight with those right now.

I know the feeling!

I pulled the trigger and ordered the amps and a P15 Power Plant. I am so psyched!

Enjoy. On top of the great equipment, I enjoy working with the company. Paul is opinionated, but at least he’s willing to say something and put himself on the line a bit.
Great $$ to value ratio too. |

I recently upgraded my P10 to a P15 and immediately noticed better bass, improved detail from my DirectStream and Brooklyn DACs and more musicality.
I too enjoy a McIntosh preamp and power amp, but they have such synergy with my Focal speakers, no thoughts on changing those. But if I did, those PS Audio BHK units would be at the top of my list.

No I don't have a crossover. I bought a miniDSP calibration microphone and Room EQ Wizard (REW) software, and got the Focals & JL Audios working well together.
My room had this obnoxious quality of adding a single bass note, regardless of what was in the musical source, had to place 10 bass traps in my "man cave", eventually getting that under control.
