| Old SS amps I have a Mark Levinson No.23 and a No.27.5 which I acquired used about twenty years ago. Although they have not in in use for several years now, I am confident that I can plug either one into my system and they will do just fine. | |
| Help with cartridge choice for Linn LP-12, Ittok turntable I'm using a Grado AEON3 cartridge with very pleasant results on my LP12/Ekos table. Prior to the Grado, I had my Transfiguration Proteus D on the table which also sounded wonderful The only reason I changed to the Grado was out of curiosity only a... | |
| Which amp with Wilson watt puppy 8 Something is certainly wrong. I drive my Wilson Alexia's with a pair of Conrad Johnson's big LP275M tube mono blocks (eight ST120 tubes in each one) with fabulous results. I can play Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon, or AC/DC Thunderstruck at le... | |
| What decibel level do you listen at? What is ideal? I have no idea what decibel level I listen to music at. I simply adjust the volume to be suitable to how I feel at that moment and what genre of music I am listening to at the time. | |
| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! Invalid, If we can hear sound emanating from a video or GPS cca there is indeed a problem. Actually, if you can hear sound coming from any cca, I would estimate that a problem exists. Most of the cards we build go through a final, full functional... | |
| 15 amp vs 20 amp Your welcome ghdprentice, What I can't tell is if the improvement is manifested via the amps being on their own electrical line, or if the improvement is from removing the amps from my power conditioner and thus allowing my source equipment to no... | |
| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! The thread premise question is with regards to the CCA's, not the piece of equipment it goes into. I would absolutely agree that transformers, relays, vacuum tubes, and other non-CCA items are indeed sensitive to vibrations. Again, the question wa... | |
| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! Being in the profession I am in, I find this thread to be somewhat amusing. I started my career in the early 80's as a PWB (printed wiring board designer) then into Engineering Manager, then Director, and then finally where I'm at as a VP/GM of an... | |
| 15 amp vs 20 amp ghdprentice, yes I have noticed that after putting my monoblocks on their own 20 amp line that there seems to be more weight to the overall presentation. It was a relatively easy and not very expensive upgrade to my system which I regret not makin... | |
| Should I upgrade from REL/510 subwoofer to REL/812 subwoofer? For many years I ran a pair of Martin Logan Grotto subs in concert with with either my Snell Type A5 Reference speakers, or my Avalon Opus speakers. I put the subs aside once I acquired y Wilson Alexias. However, a few months ago I decided to add ... | |

| 15 amp vs 20 amp A couple of months ago I updated my listening room to include a 20amp line specifically for my big CJ monoblocks. They are plugged directly in to the outlets (one behind each amp). All other components are plugged into a PS Audio power center on a... | |
| I need help with initial setup on my recently acquired used Naim Uniti Nova I had the same happen to me while setting up my new Naim ND555 and 555DR PS. After updating the firmware, I then rebooted both the Naim ND555 and my IPad. It all worked from there on out. | |
| Why the huge increase in the price of Sonus Farber Amanti G5 speakers. Sonus Faber will find out if their pricing decision was proper, or not. As with any company, from a marketing perspective they should be pricing their products based on research into what the market will accept. If they price it too low, they leav... | |
| Kef Blade or Wilson Audio Alexia? I have Wilson Alexias driven by modern CJ tube components and I am completely in awe with every listening session. I had auditioned Kef Blades, Magico M5's, and Focal Utopias prior to acquiring the Wilsons. All three were very nice, but the Wilson... |
