| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music Well obviously this is your opinion and your room with your speakers. It may work for your system but that in no way guarantees the dame result for someone else. Lately I have been reading too many opinions, etc., that are somewhat useless for o... | |
| Primaluna? Auto bias is a nice feature but adds another thing into the design. Biasing is usually as simple as turning a knob and centering the needle in the middle of the meter. | |
| Integrated Amplifiers - Luxman vs Pass Labs It does not matter what other people’s opinions are. Your system is not the same as theirs so nothing they say will make a difference. The only thing that matters is how it works in your system. We have a listening room with probably close to 30 d... | |
| Help with McIntosh Repair Facility I'm in New Jersey if you want to communicate with me - PM me. I have rebuilt entire amps for $2500! | |
| amplifier longevity @johnsonwu as you know, like you I have been repairing Counterpoint components for some time now. While it was a common practice and there for a reason, I have also seen many covers with holes so the heat does not get trapped. While it may not ... | |
| Power Cables on Subwoofers do Matter As always, each amplifier is different and obviously may not produce the same results as yours. Upgraded the capacitors and resistors would probably make a bigger improvement then the power cable. Happy Listening | |
| amplifier longevity Comes down to design, parts quality, and heat. Many amplifiers that we have repaired just were not that well designed and or did not have the proper design to remove the heat. Think Counterpoint - mosfets back then were not that great and they w... | |
| flabbergasted with reviews on speakers As a manufacturer or audio components (we don't offer speakers for sale), we get to hear and pair speakers with our equipment. We also have to adjust to the speaker as you cannot just get the best sound out of a speaker just because the equipment... | |
| Help with Cartridge choice Buy a Denon and have get wood body for it. As close to the Gold Bug for $300 as you will get. Happy Listening. | |
| How to identify my weakest link? Start with your source. I would upgrade my phono stage before the cartridge. Cables make a difference sure but nothing like a reference source like the phono or DAC first. | |
| When choosing new Speakers, what matters most to you? I never purchased any piece of equipment by looking at the measurements. It either sounds good or it doesn't. BUT you have to know what makes sound, sound good. For example, I would not use a digital amp on efficient horns. I would use an 845 o... | |
| Comparing Speaker Cables if the changes are subtle then you don't need to bother or pick out special notes to listen for. Wither you hear an improvement right off or you don't. It is that simple. | |
| Thank you millercarbon Congrats on your cables. IMO, cables are so system dependent for example, in our listening room we have Class A tube mono blocks, VTL mono blocks and VAC mono blocks. Each of the amps need adjustment in specific areas to bring out the best so wh... | |
| How to tame a bright system? Fix your source first that is where you issue is coming from. | |
| A decent integrated amp under 2K ... @alaindexe - I had to re-read your post so my bad. I have no suggestions for you for a SS amp for your speakers then. 😀 Happy Listening |
