Anyone else constantly curious about amps?
@hilde45 great info on some of your amps, especially the LTA. Been very curious about their pieces!  Can you speak a bit more about these amps specifically? I've been super curious about the Hypex and the Benchmark specifically; I already own and ... 
Chronos tweak at Axpona
@jeffbij  NAILED IT!!  I have yet to see a single photo or video of the actual product, being used, a measurement, anything OTHER than platitudes and bloviating marketing speak.  
Soeaker cables technologic dilema…
@unsound I guess if there is no sonic impacts, you are likely very right in suggesting getting the zobel included: can't hurt and never have to worry about what amp it's hooked to.  I'm using a full refurb Hoppes Brain Adcom GFA 555 Dual Mono.  6'... 
Soeaker cables technologic dilema…
@mitch2 I still have a browser tab open from Apha Core Goertz speaker ....ribbons? Cables? Wires?! I don't know why but of all the speaker hook up wires, these intrigue me the most. My runs are only 6' max so I wouldn't need a Zobel, and my amp ha... 
Standmount speaker suggestion
Throwing in my suggestion for Legacy Audio "Studio HD" stand mount speakers. I haven't heard the more expensive Calibre, but the Studio's I have are amazing for the size.  Legacy Audio Studio HD Bookshelf  
AC Power
@erik_squires Aaahhhh I -KNEW IT-!!!  I guess one thing that could also be done is placing it vertically.  In my case, I could easily cut a block of wood to 'fill' the rack ear, and simply mount it vertically OUTSIDE the wood low-boy cabinet the e... 
AC Power
@erik_squires GREAT info, as always!!! The OP mentioned early that he has limited space for additional pieces of kit.  I have a similar issue with space.  The Furman unit you recommended (one you have always stood by and recommened before to other... 
Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers
Oh my gosh I was just thinking about your set up yesterday!  My subwoofer sort of buzzes the floor under it's square feet and I remembered Herbies Dots and thought "I need to just get some fat dots.....oh wait what ever happened to that guy and hi... 
New remastering of Steely Dan's Katy Lied review by Fremer
There was always something about how NOT perfect Katy Lied quality was that I for some reason always liked.  A huge chunk of that is absolutely contextual though: like, in the basement with step dad while working on the wood stove, or building cab... 
Impedance - The most ignored and useful measurement tool
YES @erik_squires !!!!!!!  Been reading thru fathers electronics text books on impedance, and studying in regard to speakers, wire, input/output, etc.  Your post is perfectly timed and really well stated!!!   
Power supply for ethernet switch?
@mclinnguy yea I don't tolerate people coming at me with attitude and talking to me like I said or did something idiotic, like ignorantly ask if an 'audio engineer' is like a "sanitation engineer".   
Does your system "rock"?!?! NO? ADD MORE ROCKS!!
@kerrybh there's another fellow that is VERY into tweakery too: some legit to an extent, some....just....well if it's a fun hobby for him, then cool I guess.  I think there's something about seeing people who expend great time and energy and resou... 
Does your system "rock"?!?! NO? ADD MORE ROCKS!!
@kerrybh I subscribed....how could you NOT?!?!  I wanna see where this all goes man, like, you know at some point essential oils are coming into play!!!    
Does your system "rock"?!?! NO? ADD MORE ROCKS!!
@roxy54 his system is that DAC and a bluetooth JBL party speaker.  Just teasing.  The guy is very passionate.  Gotta give him that!    
Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers
Just wanted to add to the thoughts of Adcom GFA-555 amps. As stated, they are old, but they can be easily and affordably modernized.  I did exactly this with my old Musical Concepts 555, (dual mono), and it is a world better. I would think for the...
