| Greatest debut album Well, yeah simao. What would you expect? That’s who audiophiles are. | |
| Nature of the current used speaker market @ihasaguy, Assuming you meant to say 20.7, there are a pair on Audiogon right now with an asking price of $6995, I believe it is. | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect Maybe it's price is partially a result of the wire being non-directional. Drawn reeeaaal slowly through the die. Time is money, after all. ;-). I have trouble thinking of even a single pair being sold, but Bond has been at this a long time. I stil... | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect I need ten pair, so I'm gonna do a reverse mortgage. | |
| Stacked Quads wiring question The problem with running a pair in parallel with a single stereo amp is that their combined impedance at very high frequencies is less than 1 ohm! And wired in series about 100 ohms in the midbass and lower. Neither a good situation, especially wh... | |
| Nature of the current used speaker market A pair of brand new Magnepan MG 3.7i can be had for $6,000. | |
| Pop Sound in my speakers when driven loud from studio recorded CD sources. Sure sounds like amp clipping, which can fry tweeters. It happened to me one time. | |
| Could I be a Retail Wretch? There was a good independent musical instrument store on Santa Monica Blvd. in W. Los Angeles named West L.A. Music, which everyone preferred to the Guitar Center on Sunset in Hollywood. They did a good business, and thrived. But the owner finally... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. Along with VAC, Music Reference amps provide multiple impedance (transformer winding) taps; in the RM-200 Mk.2: 1, 2, 4, and 8 ohms; in the RM-10 Mk.2: 4 and 8 ohms; in the discontinued RM-9: 4, 8, and 16 ohms. | |
| Stacked Quads wiring question Your confusion appears to be arising from the thought that, should the second set of Quads receive their signal off the speaker terminals of the first pair (as is the case in series wiring), they will see a signal filtered from the x/o in that fir... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning The VERY interesting Degritter brand Ultrasonic cleaner is scheduled to become available in January 2019, at what retail price I don’t know (last I heard, a little over $2,000). It operates at 120kHz, for reasons explained on the company’s website... | |
| RMS Power? @almarg, Al, as you can’t attend any of Roger’s presentations, have you watched the two videos on You Tube of his seminars at The Burning Amp Festival? His and Nelson Pass’, that is. Great stuff! It's a pleasure to own products by both these great... | |
| Is the Last Record Preservative system a worthwhile investment? @french_fries, are you sure it is Last Record Preservative you are using? How much did you pay for the pint bottle? A pint of Last is not cheap!@harrylavo, you either have the year wrong, or it is not Last you are using. It was not introduced unti... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. I couldn't agree more with both clio09 and gpgr4blu. Thanks guys. | |
| Is the Last Record Preservative system a worthwhile investment? @rshak, First was made by Nitty Gritty, but was discontinued because some chemical it contained was banned by the EPA. It was as you said, a heavy-duty pre-cleaner, made to remove mold release from new LP's before they were cleaned with regular cl... |
