| Paypal Article of Interest Well written article for all you buyer's who assumed you were somehow "protected" paying with PayPal. Pal to the seller (only). Reinforces the need to carefully read (and understand) all user agreements. | |
| PC s and/or conditioners etc for BAT I'm using an older version Kimber PowerKord on my D5. It easily was better then the stock cord. Plugs directly into the systems dedicated iso ground line. Haven't tried anything more exotic.Streetdaddy, if it helps, the BAT literature lists VK-5i ... | |
| Adding a Second Sub Haven't experimented with multiple subs myself, but an interesting article you may want to copy for insight was written by Tom Nousaine and appeared in the June 96 issue of Audio magazine. Don't scoff at the date. The article is an excellent discu... | |
| BAT POLL... Kind of guessing as to what your dissatisfaction might be with the 1000's. If it is bass problems, my experience is that the N801's can easily overwhelm even a 5000 cubic foot room. No amp will be able to compensate for too small a room for these ... | |
| Dedicated power circuit Evo & Bob b, more details please. Are the fuses you are using standard cartridge type or edison base screw ins? Is there manufacturer or model number listed on the fuse box? Also please detail how the fuses are connected to the main supply. Is... | |
| best integrated for kef105.3 4ohm KEF 105/III's are a tough load to drive. 2.9 ohm impedance in the bass. A lot of amps will not be happy driving this speaker. Tried a Classe integrated on mine and quickly blew out the fuses. Gave up on integrateds after that and stayed with seper... | |
| Shipping amps upside down? For peace of mind you might want to talk with the manufacturer's packaging engineer or designer to get their take on potential problems. I would expect that if the unit was shipped in factory packaging and the packaging and amp have passed standar... | |
| My 4B-ST runs Hot Argent, have you tried swapping the amps input cables left for right to see whether their are any sources issues? Ie now the left side is hotter than the right. Similiar experiment would be to swap left for right speaker leads (with source correct... | |
| Why pay "more" for USED?? Check out the auction today and you'll see the high bidder now listed as "not a registered user". Maybe it was a recreational bidder (the type that like to jake up auction bids) and finally trapped himself as high bidder. No history (within 6 mont... | |
| BAT VK D5SE vs WADIA 861 Try well recorded harpsicord music on both. I think you'll find a clear winner. | |
| Suggestions for filling speakers stands? Steel shot. Check yellow pages for Industrial Abrasives Suppliers. Inexpensive & doesn't hold moisture like sand. CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE EXPOSED TO LEAD PRODUCTS! | |
| High ceilings and hardwood floors You have a 16 x 16 "shoe box" which will have a nasty double reinforcement at whatever frequency has a 16 foot wavelength. Invest in acoustic treatments, especially bass traps to tame that resonance. Other above advice about rugs, curtains, and ot... | |
| Cardas Golden VS AQ Diamondx3. anybody? J k, you bring up an interesting alternative with the AQ Anaconda. What did you find to be it's strengths over the GR (Cardas)? Anything you felt the GR did better? | |
| What type of breakers are best for audio You really don't have too many options. Each panel manufacturer uses different breakers (their own) which are not interchangeable. Breakers also must be sized so as to not allow too much current to a specific wire gage. I'd stay away from GFI (gro... | |
| dedicated power circuit for amp My idea (I'm not a metalurgist and I didn't design your breakers)of why your 100 amp breaker sounds better is due to the construction of the breaker with it's bimetallic strip and contact surfaces both of which would be larger in a 100 amp breaker... |
