| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones You're funny Dave_b but accurate about the 39 bucks. I think the last time my wife and I grabbed Pizza and a couple of glasses of red wine it was closer to 50 bucks.The next day the Pizza and wine were in a place no one wants to go, but the fuse w... | |
| EMI FIELDS Musicnoise, exactly correct on all points. | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Ken Stevens is a quality and resolution freak, and his CAT gear proves he knows what he's doing.I've owned amps that had only resistors and breakers (no fuses) but no way to compare to identical design with and without.I've done my share of flippi... | |
| EMI FIELDS Not sure it would help with static but might help screen RF and EMI if the cage you propose building is grounded. Here's some good info and it's correct:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Pubul57 Of course, I have no idea of fuses making a difference in sound is or isn't grounded in sound engineering.There is no free ride, a fuse represents a bottle neck in the otherwise fairly substantial network of electron flow that's necessary ... | |
| Is break in quicker with Planars and Stats? Sure, we can all learn to cope but that is very different than spreading information as truth that is not.There is not nearly the network of dealers and support as when I first got into this business and lots of people use the internet for all the... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones I just got confirmation that my 24 HiFi Tuning Fuses have been shipped.I already have Isoclean fuses in my front end components and got a nice upgrade. It will be interesting to hear the effect of 24 HiFi Tuning brand going into my amps all at one... | |
| Is break in quicker with Planars and Stats? It's a shame that the information Musicnoise typed out gets run at Audiogon. Invariably there will be newbees that believe what he said and possibly sell a good pair of speakers before ever knowing what they really sound like.Lightminer is correct... | |
| "Audiophile" Printer - But Interfering with AC? Cwlondon, that printer uses a two lamp system to heat and set the toner, it might be the power required for both lamps to start up draw enough current to disturb your stereo components. | |
| LoJack for audio equipment? ViridianBut no burglar is going to take LPs; they would steal the cat food first.Only if it were a cat burglar. | |
| Is break in quicker with Planars and Stats? I agree with Philjolet. When I owned Sound-Lab speakers they required several months and so did my Dali Megalines which are cone plus ribbons. I think this is true for all speakers. Typically, the higher resolution the speaker (and the system it's... | |
| Roger Waters Amused to Death LP what is it worth$ Kgturner and this thread only helps to reinforce why i can't afford to get into vinyl. Sure, i could buy an awesome turntable/tonearm/cart and phono pre, but once i had to start buying albums..... :(There have been many threads at Audiogon where p... | |
| Man Cave or No? My listening room is the family (living) room. I keep everything as tidy as possible so my wife and kid are comfortable there, as well as those that come to listen to music. | |
| Roger Waters Amused to Death LP what is it worth$ Mary,Just posting here you should get offers for it. I don't need three copies but there are a lot of people with no copies that would like to have one. | |
| Autos with stock awsome sound systems; Recomend? Albertporter, I am shocked. I heard the BMW system in a new M5 earlier this year and thought it as TERRIBLE. Maybe the one you heard was significantly differentMy 4.4 X5 is not new, I can't afford $70K for a new one. Maybe they changed them in the... |
