| Easy tonearm replacement for Empire 598? I have an AR (Jelco made) arm on a 598. You are limited in arm choices since the arm has to work in the mount provided- unless you resort to some clever machining. Good Luck! | |
| Tubes on top and Class D on the bottom FWIW there are tube amps that go full power to 2Hz...20Hz response with zero squarewave tilt is thus possible. So I would not use the 'response to 20Hz' issue as an argument against tubes, just say'n... | |
| Experienced audiophiles best speaker Weseixas, I expect to see the T-3.3 at RMAF.Mapman, I may not have made myself clear- I did not find the mbls to be bright. IOW although I have heard mbl systems sound bright a number of times, under controlled circumstances I have found that it s... | |
| Experienced audiophiles best speaker The Model T-1.3, although he has a new T-3.3 that I have not heard yet, but will be at RMAF. | |
| Experienced audiophiles best speaker Jim, the reason you might have to wait a while before calling Tvad or Paul is that when you mention your gear that way in your threads it degrades your credibility.IMO its OK to steer the conversation into an area where you can offer correct and i... | |
| 45's in George Wright 2A3 3.5's? Yes, it should. | |
| Reel to Reel decks Orpheus10, FWIW, they finally did figure out where they went wrong with the math on bumblebees, about 20-25 years ago- the Reynolds number was wrong. | |
| Reel to Reel decks Assuming one's source is vinyl, or CD, or cassette, or 8-track, or me playing the piano... will the tape (recorded with the speakers off) playback sound better than the original source did when it was played back by itself (or played)?Maybe. My co... | |
| 45's in George Wright 2A3 3.5's? 2A3s like to see a load of about 3K. 45s OTOH like to see a load of about 8K. So you *can* do it, but to do it *right* you would need to replace the output transformer... | |
| Need help fast - Unbalanced Preamp to Balanced Amp With regard to Al's comment immediately above, you could set up the cable so that only pin 2 of the XLR at the preamp end is used. That way the inverting out would not be grounded and possibly damaged.FWIW in the case of our preamps they are compl... | |
| Need help fast - Unbalanced Preamp to Balanced Amp If you use an adapter, sometimes you can wind up with a hum because the adapter is not grounding the unused input.With a balanced amp you have a non-inverted input and an inverted input that is part of the XLR connection. If the RCA to XLR adapter... | |
| How to accomodate a balanced only phono stage ? Dgarretson has got it pretty close. The gain of the preamp is unaffected by using only one input single-ended; the problem with that is noise that is now available at the input of the preamp, whereas if you use the signal balanced, the noise can b... | |
| rumble issues - see old thread update I usually run the ZYX a little more than 1.75 grams FWIW, more like 1.85-2.0. | |
| rumble issues - see old thread update Audiotomb, I responded to this on the other thread. I run the Triplanar and ZYX and have used a variety of speakers, a good number of them ported. In addition, our preamp has phono bandwidth flat to 2 Hz. We get no pumping. IOW the bandwidth the o... | |
