This is the second or third time you've run this post about your 10t's for which you've received all sorts of advice. You now state that you do not really listen to music that loud and only want to know the limits of your system. So now it would seem, for whatever reasons, that you have met your limit and if you don't plan to listen that loud anyway what is the problem? It was also suggested by myself and others that you contact Michael Kelly at Aerial, but it seems you have not done so. He will be able to help you more than any of us. As you've no doubt noticed from all the posts you've received, none of the rest of us 10t owners seem to be having any problems. Suggest you call Mr. Kelly first thing Monday morning.
I give UP Aerial 10Ts and Power Amps
Ok, about 30 days ago, I ran a post stating my Citation 7.1, a 4 channel 210 x 4 (biamping my speakers) started cutting in and out at VERY loud levels, probably +100db, give or take. Everyone pointed to larger amps, that the speaker, a 4 ohms load, could take anything I threw at it.
Well, I took that word, while keeping my Citations, and threw a set of Jeff Rowland monoblock 7III's at them!
The babies, definitely high current, 350 into 8 ohms, 700 into 4 ohms, and a whopping 1100 into 2 (not that we are going to 2, but I suppose it could drop) ohms. That said, it happened again! WHAT GIVES?
It did this with the Casablanca, the Citation 5.0, and tomorrow I will be with the keeper, the Proceed PAV/PDSD combo. NOW, what is causing this? Could it be the speaker has a cut off to prevent any clipping, could it be the power in the house hits a wall and can't go anymore, could it be cables, power cords, what?
Or, dare I say, could I have just hit the limits of volume for a home and this set of speakers?
For what it is worth, I do not listen to things this loud, ever, or RARELY, but when changing pieces, I do PUSH to know the limits.
HELP!!!!!
