| Running dedicated AC where do I start PleaseHelp Start by doing a search of dedicated lines using the Audiogon archive search engine. There are hours of reading already posted on this subject. | |
| I have dedicated lines, but why is this happening? It may be time to look at the A/C unit as the source of the popping. Areas I would look at include making sure all the electrical connections are tight and corrosion free. Obviously do this with A/C breaker off. Don't overlook the exterior disconn... | |
| Will dedicated power lines eliminate ground loops Glen: Am I reading this right? That your I.G. recepticles are "star grounded" to an isolated ground bar that is not (currently) referenced to ground? | |
| I am confused about 15A and 20A current. Unless your wiring is a minimun of 12 gauge (14 gauge is smaller) you cannot just change the breaker to a larger size. If you have 14 gauge wiring on that circuit try replacing the existing breaker with the same brand 15 amp breaker as breakers ca... | |
| Yamaha M & MX Amps The MX 1000U (U = United States) is the only one on your list I have info on. The MX-1000 is very similiar, but had the ability to be switched for differing operating voltages.Minimum RMS Output Power per Channel:8 ohms 260 watts6 ohms 295 watts4 ... | |
| How should I go about adding a dedicated ground? Your electrician, if he is licensed, should know that ground (rod) lines interconnected to the main panel as required by code have minimun (6 guage or larger) sizing requirements dependent upon the amp capacity of the main panel. He will also be f... | |
| Electrical problem associated with all of my amps Time to invest in a digital voltmeter and try to identify where the apparent low voltage condition is originating. Potential problem areas: Utility problems such as defective or overloaded transformer. Corroded or defective incoming cabling (espec... | |
| Todays Raido Stations suck Twin Cities radio just as bad. 1 & 1/2 hour repeat on Plop 40 all sHIT stations. Total dumbing down by media conglomerates buying up too many stations in one market area.CD Company Executives complaining of poor CD sales: Guess what? For sHIT ... | |
| Do Audioquest Anacondas really make a difference? Upgraded from Python to Anaconda. Same tonal balance but the Anacondas had the detail that was missing from the Pythons. Dollar wise the Anacondas cost about 10% of the two components they are connecting. | |
| Audiophile pre-amps with home theater pass through Krell KRC-3, the S-3 input can be configured for unity gain. | |
| Audioquest is bright?? Another vote to allow more break in time. Some AQ Pythons I once purchased displayed a really obnoxious midrange at about 50 hours use which then disappated with extended use. Up to this experience, I was sceptical of break in claims. | |
| How long is too long to wait for shipping? Are you paying by personal check? Many sellers require a 10 business day period for checks to remain cleared. Also some sellers verify that money orders and/or certified checks are legit, since there have been some cases of fraud with them as well... | |
| Loading times / problems on Agon ??? This morning home page was unavailable. Clicked on the new today page via my history list an got it to load ok. New today page has been slow to load with the very annoying dynamic picture ads certain advertisers seem to find necessary. | |
| Up on the roof On one house I actually got very good results putting the antenna in the attic. Benefits included easy reorienting and lack of weather related problems.If you are mounting outside, pay very good attention to grounding requirements that are require... | |
| Ground loop hum You may want to look at the various connection points on your elctrical panel and water pipes for corrosion. Easy fix to brighten them up with emory sandpaper so they are nice and shiny so they make the best contact. Also make sure that there is a... |
