| Did Marconi invented radio...? In an episode of "Sopranos" they speak on this, and similar topics from the "Italian"point of view.....And the Warren Commission was right also.? | |
| JADIS DEFY 7 SPIT SPUTTER Got the 7mk4.Had a similar problem. Mine sounded like bacon frying w/o the aroma.Exchanged just the very front tube R/to/L.My center immage shifted.Not sure why that happened.Couldn't live with that. I re swapped back. While the amp was playing,I ... | |
| Theatre Bypass Mod for CJ Preamp? Not sure that I understand your sonic concerns.Any 1/2 decent 2 ch pre amp should KILL the sound from a proscessor's preamp.Do we have a decent 2 ch amp?/or are we using a 5ch affair? The 2 ch pre is only a 'half' of the equation;a good 2 ch amp,b... | |
| Quantum DAC and Cesium Transport I would like to state further-I had at the time Theta's pro basic2.(2K)The Quantum (3.4K) dac was on par with 'IT'.I kept the Rez.dac for about 3 weeks.I finally exchanged it for Gen5/+(450.00), before the a mod came out.Brand new with 2 day's bre... | |
| Theatre Bypass Mod for CJ Preamp? I for one, think the theater bypass is not necessary at all. I have a CAT w/o such feature.What I do is take a set of ics. Plug them from the "fronts-out" on the processor /into an input on the pre. My cdplayer goes into the cd input my HT fronts ... | |
| biwire question - 2 cables - 1 banana? Your in a tough position. Budget wire connectors,no soldering abilities,no room to work. I guess that is between two rocks and a hard place.I'm not to sure that if you actually paid someone to do all this there would be significant gains anyway.So... | |
| Quantum DAC and Cesium Transport I home demoed them say 7/8 years ago. Good stuff;but not to good at the price point of the time.Stereophile gave them a class B rating..Was my feeling also.It aint no giant killer by any means. | |
| "Bridging" an amp Yup,on Cornfed's advice. Many /most home theater multi ch. amps are set up for bridging.The instructions are frequently on the amp itself,or certianly in the manual. Beyond that, check with the MFG.Severe damage could occur. | |
| Where do you guys buy replacement tubes? Dekay,When I needed to retube my pre,I was told I wouldn't be able to buy any of the good brands because I didn't buy from him. Latter when it was time to retube my Jadis, I thought I would ask. I had no tube preference nor price in mind. I just a... | |
| Auditioning Audio Gear - The Music Used I would say things that you are most familar with that are good "pressings" /old vinyl term. I ain't into this--these speakers/this amp/ are best on that/ kind of music. Female vocal/piano/dynamics would be the things I'm looking for.If I have to ... | |
| Optical cable vs. Digital interconnect When you say "newer" you mean the stuff I bought today. I guess the stuff I bought last week is old huh? In audiophiledom you are the lone voice.There are BIG,BIG differences. Low,mid fi,maybe not. Go to a high end store, an ask for a demo.Ask to ... | |
| Guilty Pleasures Don't ya' just love it when one of your freinds/or visiting relatives is flipping thru the albums,picking some of those old ones,holding them up in a crowded living room,"What's this?"/"with no place to hide." | |
| How many different ways to bi-wire? Just 2. For this, lets assume spades.(#1) The speaker end has 2 spades the amp end has one spade naturally Xs 4 for L&R Xs two speakers. Most all amps have provisions for just the one set so it is easier to hook up.(#2) Is seprate hunks with s... | |
