| Help needed for isolation under the power amps Home Depot, large thick chunk of granite. On top of that a nice thick (3inch) cutting board, and tennis balls cut in halves. Works great, and inexpensive for my standards. | |

| Choice: ATI 3000 or ODYSSEY STRATOS PLUS ? I just bought a 14 year old pair of stratos monos. Plugged em in, left on for a week or so, for the basic as they are, they are not too bad honestly, driving a pair of modded vega d-9's. For their stated power rating, I'm shocked at their power/au... | |

| New preamp, loss of low freq.? I will hook up my onkyo eq-540 equalizer, keep everything at 0 and just lightly boost the lower freq, just a little bit. Hate using an equalizer, but I don't have a choice, the sound I'm getting from the preamp is remarkable to say the least. Mid... | |
| New preamp, loss of low freq.? I always had all buttons off!, no contra bass was ever used. Even with all the extras off, I had more boomy bottom end with onkyo. Strange. Will output put volts have something to do w it? Sanders is only 10 volts. Onkyo and B&K were min ... |
