Anyone heard Christian Scott, new trumpeter? After seeing your post I ordered his CD "Anthem". It was delivered last week and I listened to it for the first time over the weekend. I really like Trumpet led jazz and have a big collection of releases by Miles Davis, Wynton Marsalis, Kenny Whee... | |
Top 5 guitar jams I'm not sure what I'd put in positions 2-5, but my all time fav is Duane Allman (with Boz Scaggs on rythm - "Loan Me a Dime" from Boz Scaggs fist album.After that, probably "Layla" and "Stairway to Heaven". | |
Highly Recommended CHILL OUT CDs??? Here's a new one:Klaus Schulze and Lisa Gerrard - "Farscape"It's a new release (August 2008) 2 disc CD and amazing. I just got mine yesterday and have only had a chance to listen to disc I, but it alone is worth the $14.99 I paid. It has those gre... | |
Different ways to Biwire speakers the VR4 Geniii manual says you should use a jumper only as a temporary solution. Bi-wiring them is the correct connection. Further, TVAD's recollection is correct, you should connect the wire to the mid/tweeter module, and the jumper down from that. | |
Highly Recommended CHILL OUT CDs??? "Electronic Realizations for Rock Orchestra" - Synergy good call . . . Larry Fast (aka Synergy) recorded multiple albums and they are all great, though a little higher energy than the reference recording. | |
Shorting plugs.... well . . . I have multiple inputs on my preamp because I routinely switch between CD and Phono (I actually only need 2 inputs, but my pre has 4, so I short the unused 2). I'm just not willing to go to the inconvenience of unplugging my phono when ... | |

Shorting plugs.... I've tried RCA shorting plugs as well as non-shorting caps on the open inputs of one preamp I was having noise floor problems with. Note, you don't want to short open output connectors, only inputs. I noticed very little though some improvement. I... | |
Dynaco/SS Bi-amp w/ Von Schweikert query I have the VR4geniii's and tried to biamp in a similar way. I used a SS amp on the bass units, and a TAD 60 on the mid/tweets. The TAD 60 has a volume pot and when wide open it's more sensitive (ie louder) than my SS amp (Eagle 4). It seemed like ... | |
I need an economical but good phono preamp? I recently picked up a Musical Fidelity X-LPS and am very impressed. I paid <$200, and have seen several sell for under that value. I've tried other <$200 phono and none compare. | |
What connectors for DIY cable? These Belkins are great for DIY. They use a set screw to attach, and will take a 12 gauge cable. Also, if you buy one of these sets, the Spade connectors unscrew from the ends and you can change them to these BFA Banana connector which is convenie... | |
Blues from the 50s/60s/70s If I were to pick one to start with, I would go for Muddy Waters 'Folk Singer.'I agree, and the Chess records version has amazing sonics, better than most MFSL records I have (from other artists). Sadly, a lot of great early performer's recordings... | |
Rega Hal - preamp outs if you flip your preamp over (bottom up) you'll see 4 hex key cap screws. You need to remove them, then flip the pre back over and lift the top half of the die-cast shell off (it separates at the middle seam). Do this carefully so you don't scratc... | |
Can a sub be hooked up to speaker posts? When hooked up this way with rels how much of a load will be put on the amp.virtually no load. The Rel has a very high impedance, and it has its own power amp and not using the amp for power, so its its effect on the amp is negligible. |
