| Kimber 4TC vs 8TC I don’t I don’t think your equipment is gonna let you hear any difference on midfi gear | |

| How do you properly set up a horn speaker I’m assuming you like the dynamics of these speakers, I would suggest starting with them 7 feet apart and slightly towed in and close to the wall. In Reality I would suggest moving them as in selling and starting with a better speaker , they ho... | |
| Dunlavy speaker experts I’ll try to help. Have been using the sciv since the 80s. The ivA model used different bass drivers . But are pretty much the same speaker What issue are you having? The Vs are a totally different animal | |
| Miss my Dunlavy Speakers, Were to go... My reference pair is some SC-IVs since the late 80s Those stay put and have probably owned 30 plus other Hifi speakers ever since. The only speakers Modern speakers I’ve heard that wowed me are evolution acoustics which excell in the sa... | |
| Krell KAV 400 xi for Magnepan 20.7's? I ran my 20.1 with boulder amps and odyssey amps , the boulders were really capable of driving them well and even loud which is rare with Maggie’s. I could not imagine being happy with any integrated bottom of the line Krell running them . Unl... | |
| Ayre V5-Xe or Jeff Rowland 201 Mono Blocks? I would not even think twice. The 201 were sluggish imo. | |
| why a high end phono preamp? You might be just fine with that 49 dollar phono stage if you don’t have a good stylus it’s all down hill from there in the chain. | |
| Spectral and Apogee owners only please with full respect pertaining to this request I’ve ran the 200s on Dunlavy SC-IVA since 1988 give or take. I also swap out my odyssey amps and go back and forth a lot. In the late 80s I worked in a Hifi shop, mostly what I did was sold Denon and nad and reconed jbl woofers, but we carrie... | |
| Am I asking too much? What’s the s/n ratings on your components. If they are not close that could cause your issue. Also have you biased the amp? If not you might want to start there | |
| Class D vs Class AB - Looking for best used budget amplifier for Magnepan MG12 Those crowns are industrial sounding. If you listen to speed metal you might like them. If you listen to any other kind of music it will sound like a PA amplifier. The paramount or rotel or adcom amps of the 90s should be in your budget m... | |
| Latest Psvane WE300B-Plus Tubes - Any Feedback? I’m curious. It’s a bit much to guess wrong on a pair of 300b for 1500. Im fond of taks. Please share if you pull the trigger on these | |
| 2 Stereo amps to be used in Mono...hookup? Soundcraftsman used to make an external bridging circuit called the “auto Bridge”. It would do what your asking if the amps are stable. Remember if bridged the resistance drops by a factor of 2 and your amps better have high dampening factor for... | |
| This question is aimed to TRUE Elec Engineers, not fuse or wire directionality believers. I would recommend getting any older full sized soundcraftsman amp And take it apart. if your goal is to kill the dc at the rails before it reaches the speakers they did this back in the 80s | |
