| foam on speaker delaminating. Fix it ??? Where are you located? If anywhere near Milwaukee, WI, I know an excellent store that can help you: Audio Ventures/Wisconsin Reconing (414) 258-2118. They really know there stuff. | |
| Can speaker cables damage amplifiers? I don't know about Krell products, but Spectral recommends only MIT cables with their equipment to decrease the risk of oscillation. | |
| Recommend a long subwoofer rca? This isn't an answer to your question, but rather is an inquiry of my own. Supposedly, balanced cables are better when running long distances r/t noise. Why aren't subs built with XLR connector's on them? Also, are there any XLR-to-RCA adaptors ou... | |
| Power Cord for Spectral Amp Look at Spectral's website for recommended ancillary devices. | |

| Whats the best Tube Preamp Thor, although I haven't heard the Jadis. | |
| Vote for best US made solid state amp This is not a cut-and-dried issue. The higher the definition an amp is, at this extreme would be Spectral, there is more chance at some dryness. At the opposite end of the spectrum is the "musical" sounding amp; a musical amp will, of necessity, b... | |
| NEED AN OUTBOARD SUBWOOFER AMPLIFIER The amp you need will obviously depend on the efficiecy of your sub. I plan on purchasing a Snell Type 1800 sub, a ported but nevertheless inefficient sub. I plan on purchasing an Ashly pro amp in the 1000W bridged area with MOSFET output devices;... | |
| klipsch- love/hate relationship? After my divorce approx. 1 yr. ago (hooray!), I got back into stereo stuff. I purchased a used pr. of Klipsch Chorus's. They are good rock and roll speakers, but that is about it. The only decent sound I've heard from any Klipsch speaker is one th... |
