| Krell and CJ? Yes, XLR to RCA adapters were used in what I described. I can't understand why CJ won't go with XLR. Impedance mismatch may have been the problem in what I described above, in which case one of them would have had to go anyway. | |
| Burning a CD I looked for Yamaha blanks too but to no avail. I read perhaps the same thing you did, stating Yamaha was the best. I think Fujifilm was #2 or so and you can only find those at CVS(!?). Easy CD creator is what I also use and never have any problem... | |
| Krell and CJ? Funny you ask because a friend has a CJ PV10 and got a great deal on a Krell KSA200 and paired them up for a while. It sounded pretty good but not nearly as good as with his usual Classe CA300 so he sold the Krell. The soundstage seemed constricte... | |
| Burning a CD Imation has been lots of problems for me. I use the audio TDKs now without any problems whatsoever - and at 8x speed. Arthur | |
| MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em Obviously Maxgain was right and it is good riddence. | |
| Mcintosh mc2505 has a hum on the transformer...... I still think you have something wrong. Get it checked out by someone reputable. Arthur | |
| Mcintosh mc2505 has a hum on the transformer...... sounds like something is wrong. All the Mcs I have had never made any noise no matter how hard you listened. It may need to be checked out. Arthur | |
| any audio buffs in SW VA? Grim indeed! I will keep Raleigh in mind but for now, time is too limited. Thanks for the thoughts.Arthur | |
| MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em Kennyb - I agree 110% as I have listened to a Spectral/MIT/Wilson Sophia setup at Sound Decision in Maryland - the most detail I have ever heard. However, despite loving the sound of my MITs in my system, it was too much for me. I pulled out one o... | |
| Seasoned Mcintosh Fans lend me your ears & advise Hey Jalen - I know what you are going through. I became an instant Mc fan after auditioning the MC352 and C41. Suddenly my Krell equip didn't seem to do it anymore. I have since auditioned or borrowed the MC6200, MC6500, Mc6900, MC2205, Mc240(tube... | |
| MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em I hate to tell "unclecrusty" that he is wrong due to his seeming all-knowingness in his story but here it is: If you read the MIT white papers, you will discover that there is no filtering involved in the MIT speaker cables. It is funny to see wha... | |
| MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em I went from Kimber to MIT and am just amazed. At first they did not sound too different but after a few hundred hours, a very special sound creeped up and it impresses me very much. The imaging, soundstage, and bass are incredible. I just love min... | |
| How long it take to run in brand new loudspeaker? My experience was the same as Bufus and I have found that a few hundred hours are needed before reaching steady-state sound no matter what low number the manufacturer gives for break-in. You may just have bought what are laid back speakers to your... | |
| Should Class A Amps be left on?? From a lifespan viewpoint, any heat is bad. Thermal cyclic failure is logrithmically dependant on power (half the power = 100 times more cycles before failure) so especially high power amps should not be turned on and off too often. But, if it is ... | |
| Am I the only one who thinks B&W is mid-fi? For my $0.005 I agree that they seem bright and not too involving. I had N802s for a while and was glad to get rid of them (now I know why I got such a good deal on them from the last guy!). For their retail price, they were not good. For the used... |
