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. Hi Zee9! Yes, it is slightly detrimental to the sound quality of Boazu to add ...

My sincere apologies for the terrible response times, which have only gotten worse during this week.

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

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). The long answer is: Boazu 2 will, like Tundra Mono 3, be built and tuned in Sweden. That means a new case with integrated pil...

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

Thank you both for your inputs! Sagatun, Kikkin, Superkikkin and Boazu all sound better after the volume indicator has faded out. This is because not only does the LED stop drawing current, the whole digital section including the clock is stopped and put to sleep. It doesn’t start again until either...

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

Couldn’t the volume control be set up to max out at 100 whilst limiting the voltage output to ensure the amplifier stays within its optimal operating range? This is an interesting thought. The way it could be done is that a sensor checks the output stage, which is driving the loudspeakers, and as s...

Ha ha!

The Child Lock feature is activated by pressing both VOL- and VOL+ buttons. It disables all front panel buttons until you press and hold those two again.

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

With the Tundra Mono 3 and their permanently lit LEDs, I would go one step further and have the Sagatun LEDs also light up in the color of the set volume. Do you mean that you would prefer that the volume indicator is permanently lit? Instead of fading out 3 seconds after the last volume change, as...

Thank you all for your input! Much appreciated!

Thank you Pete! Boazu 2 is in the works. This time it will be made entirely in Sweden, which has required a lot of details to be redesigned. A while back I tested adding some extra features, just like I did when the original was designed. But this time I thought I’d do it smarter, so that there woul...

I am torn between A and B.

A feels tighter. B is very melodic but seems to smear the notes a bit. C smears them even more and I have trouble enjoying it.

Yes. You can expect the short wall to be more bass heavy, but perhaps not the same boom as before. Stay away from the corners if possible.

Yes that seems correct.

Re: Boazu vs Tundra 2.2 (with various preamps)

Hi Zee9! You get the “child protection” back if you reboot Boazu. So every time it starts up, you either leave it be - and then the max volume will be 78 - or you decide to override it by pressing VOL+ during the startup sequence (when it blinks red). As so few people read the manual these days, I w...

Apple TV to Källa is addictive. Everyone I've spoken to that's tried it says they get sucked right in.

Re: Boazu vs Tundra 2.2 (with various preamps)

I don't know exactly what you're experiencing, Zee9 and ljknewbie, but I'd like to point out a few things: 1. Most digital sources have an output of 2 Vrms, which makes the loudest volume setting on the preamp 78 when using one of my power amps (or the integrated amp Boazu). Volume 78 is two steps d...
