| Take up drums at age 56? I say go for it. I did a similar thing . . . took up guitar in my 50's. I started teaching myself with books, online lessons, etc. In my case focusing on playing songs was key to keeping me going. After a couple of years of this I found a kid fres... | |
| Lexicon DC-2 power supply Here's the url for that old thread:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/lexicon-mc-1-dc-1-power-supplies?highlight=Lexicon%2Bpower%2B... | |
| Lexicon DC-2 power supply It's several screws and a couple of electrical connectors. No adjustments.you really should search for that old thread . . . There's a lot of info in it. | |
| Repair Shop In VA / Washington DC - Rec Please Bill Thalman at Music Technology is the best. | |
| Lexicon DC-2 power supply I have a MC-1. It's been fine since. The original psu's in these (DC-1, 2, and MC-1) failed often as you can see in the thread I referenced. The replacement psu is an upgrade. I don't have contact info, I would just google them. | |
| Lexicon DC-2 power supply Search search the archives and you'll find a discussion on the topic. You can buy a new psu from lexicon. (was ~$120) but they are also available from Mouser for less $. (The part number is in the thread).Installation isn't hard if you're handy. | |
| Any one using 2 separate amps using a/b switch to same speakers? You're likely seeing mono block setups or biamping configuration when you see multiple amps. Every time I thought about swapping in a tube amp with a SS amp using a switch I had visions of blowing something up. | |
| Music similar to Mike Oldfield There aren’t many artists a lot like Mike Oldfield. The general genre of instrumental synth (including shadorne’s) suggestions) gets you the closest. Another suggestion is Larry Fast/Synergy. Some of Steve Hacket’s solo work. Some of Tangerine Dre... | |
| Monoblock amps and REL Series R Sub-Base Systems, Revisisted I run run a Rel Storm III with 2 mono blocks. It works great. This discussion came up earlier this year. You may want to search for that thread. | |
| Bluetooth Digital output to Lexicon MC-1 Pre-Pro followup . . . I found out that my optical will not work with the MC-1, but there's an ARC(HDMI) connector which is an HDMI out, so I will get the digital extractor you suggested and try it that way . . . | |
| Bluetooth Digital output to Lexicon MC-1 Pre-Pro Thanks, but my primary problem is getting audio for content that originates in the tv (smart tv). For other sources like dvd I can take digital directly from them. I’m still trying to debug my tv digital out, and may get it to work, but I thought ... | |
| Great Experience with Bill Thalmann @ Musical Technology (equipment repair) I’ve had Bill work on a few components. He’s the best in every way. | |
| Parasound HCA-2200 - Should I repair, or sell? I would be inclined to repair it. They sell for $600+, sometimes over $700, and that's the original, not the II. | |
| How to connect a subwoofer into a mono block system I have a Rel Storm III and run it off my mono blocks with fantastic results. I had to build a harness to connect to the amps which sit on the floor next to each speaker. That harness links to the speakon connector at a junction strip. It integrate... | |
| Displaying your stereo on Facebook Well, I don't do it because no one I know would be interested and many I know would roll their eyeballs.That said, If Audiogon didn't exist, Facebook would be a viable platform to share with audiophiles, and Facebook is far more private than Audio... |
