Great review. ..You have a great way of getting the product you're reviewing essential character /details across with out being nerdy or long winded.Bravo!
Hii, it should handle them well. It struggles with 2 OHMs speakers though, very low impedance can cause it to go into overheating, it is almost like shorting its circuit, 6 OHMs should be okay, 4 too.
Recently switched from the Kandy K2 to the Caspian M2 the K2 was an excellent amp but the M2 betters it in every way especially in the arrangement of the music and the way it gives everything in a piece of music its own space, It has exquisite detail retrieval and lots of dynamic range with plenty of power, just want to listen to it more and more.
Hi. I'm actually not sure (?) I don't think they have any official way of checking except for serial numbers , but you'd have to know what SN new units have and that I'm not absolutely sure either
Hello. I am curious, are you still digging amp? I am looking to upgrade an old Roksan Kandy mk3 amp to this. But not sure if it's dated or if I should for the moon 240i instead. So thought I would reach out to you.
Hiii, I actually still like it, but I haven't tried the moon 240i to be sure if it isn't by chance a bit better (?) The roksab is not new nor the best, but for the price you can find it, it is great!
@@AudiophileHeaven Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated. So I guess I am asking if you are still very happy with it? In the video you said you don't see yourself wanting to upgrade for a while. So I was curious. After much research last night I was put off by the moon 240i actually. So that is no longer an option.
@@booradley3146 oh, I see If you can find this one for a good price, you can go for it. It is solid, and lasted a good few years. Plus, great, bright and detailed sound . Not recommended if you need something warm and musical rho
@@AudiophileHeaven I have Marantz pm7005 and yes its not that harsh but it lacks the sense of rhythm and punch. I might go for roksan attessa or arcam sa20
hello! thank you for the review! I'm looking for something warm to balance out my KEF LS50's, as I understood from the comments below the caspian will be to bright. I was looking at a second hand Rokshan A39, would that be warmer than the caspian? Any insights are welcome! : - )
@@AudiophileHeaven Greatful for your reply! Though I have made a mistake in my earlier post, I didn't mean 'Rokshan'. I ment 'Arcam A19 or A39. Any experience with their sound? Warm/cold/bright/... (Considering the LS50's as speakers :-) ).
Do you have any experience with the Arcam A39? Would you consider that amp. suiting for the LS50's? If you would compare a Cambridge Audio Azur 840A V2 with the Arcam A39fmj. Which one is the better match with the KEF's? / is their sound quality of the same 'rank'? Sorry for overflowing you with questions : - )

Thanks a lot, friend!!!
O melhor amplificador que ouvi até hoje! Magistral.
Happy to hear!
I had one for very long time it is excellent in SQ and pairing with SCM 11 or 19 is match made in heaven.
Woah, happy to hear you've been having an awesome time with it!
Best reviewer in all of TH-cam. You deserve your own TV show - you're a true star. So different yet so informative. Kudos George!
Thank you very much!
How will Caspian behave with 6 ohm speakers, I have a quad 22L ???

Super nice to hear you're having fun!
On Friday I became proud and happy owner of Caspian M2
I hope it brings tons of fun to you!!
@@AudiophileHeaven After getting high quality speaker cables music started to shine from the amplifier.
Have you tried with xlr
Hello, thank you for the video. How do you know you are getting the latest version of M2? Is there a way to check? thank you

I wonder if it is better than my Rega elex -r? Elex r is harsh with my MA silver 100 7g
I think it might be better, but it is also a bit harsh too, you might want to check something from MARANTZ for something a bit more relaxed in tuning

Hii there
Usually Roksan is bright, I would go with a diffet company like a second hand unico

@@WDpictures don't worry... I wish I could help, bit I never heard a39 or azur 840a ...
Roksan Caspian M2 + Elac Debut b5 ottimo suono!
Happy you found a nice combo to please your ears~!
Can it match with polk Signature s60 towers
Should be able to, the power is really good!
I have one (and CD Player) and never sell it ... one of best Amp. Fast and play music nice :)
Happy you are having fun !
@@AudiophileHeaven waiting for speakers to match
@@parkarlsson3833 There are a few. I've been pairing it with Buchardt S400 Speakers for now, they sound pretty nice together!
Today I have Guru QM 10 two. Are interested in the S400 when heard earlier that they sound good with Caspian. So fuck came up with a good video :)
Nice review Geoge. Roksan is always a very good make. The frequency response on this is very large. Just wish i had £1600 to buy it.
Thank you for your kind words XD
Only hackers rely on "frequency response" figures, intelligence people judge sound with their ears, not their eyes.
I have the Kandy K2 amplifier, Roksan make great products
Happy to hear that their other products are also good!
I have the Kandy K2 it's a brilliant amp really well made with great sound quality
The trumpet like speakers are called ‘Horn’ speakers
Yes
Parabéns
Thanks a lot!!
