| Dedicated circuits @immatthewj In therory, there is nothing wrong with your argument. However, the building code clearly says you can't do it. There is a reason why a 20A receptacle will accept both a 20A plug and a 15A plug, but the reverse is not true. My gue... | |
| Dedicated circuits @immatthewj A 15A receptacle on a 20A breaker is not an issue as any 15A appliance will never exceed the wiring in the circut. The reverse of a 20A outlet on a 15A circut is where the potential of fire comes into play. We assume the breaker wi... | |
| Dedicated circuits @jea48 It's against building code to install 20A outlets on a 15A breaker. You may be correct that the 15A breaker would trip, but do you want to risk your home insurance not paying out after your house burns down? Just follow the code and be p... | |
| Dedicated circuits @dpop Wow!! That's a 30 amp plug alright. I'm confused by your comment. The specs on the crown amp show it's draws 0.75 amps at idle. My Hegel H30s put out the same power as the Crown. As I stated above, the entire system in operation draws a... | |
| Focal Sopra 2 or Sopra 3? I've just sold my Sopra 2s. Was running them with a 50 WPS Triode 845 Class A amp. It was a great combination and I liked the speakers very much. I also used a pair of Rel s/812 subs to give that extra bass "feel" that most speakers lack. I th... | |
| How much is about the recording I doubt anyone on this thread, or site, has a shite system, so yes, it all about the recording. Why do some recording have a soundstage that goes out way past the speakers, and other are compressed to the point of almost sounding like mono record... | |
| Dedicated circuits If a train leaves New York travelling at 60 MPH, and a Hot Air Balloon can accend at a rate of 5 feet per second when the ambient air temp is 78.3 degrees, can I still hear any difference between a 12 gauge 15 amp line and a 10 gauge 20 amp line, ... | |
| Dedicated circuits @dpop Thank you for verification of my comments. Sadly it won't make much difference on this forum. What we have here are a lot of people who also "feel" how much better thier cars drive just after they've washed them. 😂 I read an article some ... | |
| Dedicated circuits It would appear that many many people on this site, while knowing a lot about stereo equipment, don’t have a real grasp on basic principles of electricity. A circuit breaker is a saftey device that limits the maximum flow of current draw on the in... | |
| Cable burn in @jasonbourne52 I generally agree with your opinion re cables. My current system runs Morrow interconnects preamp to amps, and Fidelium speaker cables. I recently purchased some Furutech knock offs. The construction was very good. Installed th... | |
| CD player suggestions... +1 for AudioLab 6000 CDT. One of the best players I’ve owned at any price. | |
| Why would a moderator remove a cable review? It's all Joe Biden's fault! 🤣 | |
| Why would a moderator remove a cable review? I posted Bob's price list after someone asked about. Was that wrong? | |
| Shipping 80lb amps. @skids this is how I ships things. Overkill? No frikken way. 🤣 | |
| Shipping 80lb amps. @benzman I live in that area. Get a quote from Ship Canada. Have it put on a small pallet. Their 3rd party insurance is very cheap. Excellant company. Have used several times and nothing but 100% satisfaction. Request quote from Emma emm... |
