Cary 805B without bias pot
My 805B monos do not have the bias pot or the aux plug hole to plug in a meter.  I've seen no literature that talks about an autobiasing amp.The previous owner (and original owner, I think) said the amps were an upgraded autobiasing set of monos.I... 
Morel MDT-33 soft dome tweeter
Thanks, everyone for the info and suggestions.Performing surgery scares me a bit as I tried once before on a different tweeter and screwed things pretty royally.I saw today they sell replacement domes (Morel R-33) at Parts Express.  Is a dome repl... 
Morel MDT-33 soft dome tweeter
Tried.Discontinued.The only ones I've come across are used.  The ones in my speakers sound fine, but they're dimpled up a bit and was hoping to find a new pair somewhere.When I bought the speakers the tweeters were both pushed in.  Did the vacuum ... 
What does feedback control on Cary 805 do?
Thanks, guys.So if I'm understanding:  It's used to better match the amps to any given speaker?Am I tracking? 
Opening Record Store
In my hometown, growing up, there was a restaurant on the corner of main street.  Every few years there would be a new restaurant at the same location.  None of them ever made it.Clearly, the previous owner isn't getting out of the record selling ...

Do expensive cables/wires REALLY make a difference
Wow, I'm going to respond to a 7 year old thread...Hopefully, the OP has come to his own conclusions about cables by now.Here's my $.02:  Cables make the least difference in sound of any component change or upgrade.  I think speakers offer (obviou... 
Chinese fake cables How fake, how good?
I read the op and decided to give some Odins cables a try (one spade and the other a biwire bananas) since I've been looking for some cables, anyway.How will they compare to the originals?  No clue; will never know as those things crazy expensive.... 
Speakers that sound great in terrible rooms
I'll get crapped on here but...The best speakers for bad rooms IMO are the Bose 901's.  Those things can be set up darn near anywhere and still sound pretty good.  At one time I had them on top of my Dunlavy SC-IV's and they still sounded nice.  G...
