| Buying a 10 years old loudspeaker there's tons of good advice here, but here's my two cents worth.If the maker is around see if they support the model that interests you. Some stop support at five years out of production... some further. BW Nautilus went out 10 years after product... | |
| REVIEW: Oppo DV980H Calling and talking to the support team of ANY product, regardless the price, regardless the ambition, decided or not, is key to finding those makers who are customer oriented and not just resting on their reps and previous editions.With very, ver... | |
| Blue Note reissues as an investment? Speculation is as said, "Risky Business". I don't see much risk if you hold to your stated path. Were I to speculate or try to predict the future on something for profit short term, I'd buy tickets to the next super bowl... there'll sure be a mark... | |
| Help preamp problem: overload? I'm with the asking SF support waht's up? poster. I also am wondering about the tubes in the preamp... and if this event occurs with any other music, media, etc., given the same conditions.I'd try to recreate the same event using other music or me... | |
| REVIEW: Oppo DV980H Dog_or_man I'll second or third, that "Why did you not return it?" note.Mine came after all the firmware updates and though it's not played much while the remodeling is ongoing, I use it to test ripped DVD's, CD's, and new store boughts, now and a... | |
| Best outlet I also went with Hospital grade 20A single duplexes on 20A dedicated lines. great grip and total elimination of any arcing... much improved out come over the standard 25 cents Levitonn supplied as orig when the house was built. Now am thinking of ... | |
| They lost my amp Well, for now I'd have to say that sucks. Big time. Dreadfully sorry to hear about it too. there's no question that one half of a matched pair being lost or busted IMO is a total loss... and I'd pursue it that way too, wether it would prove out we... | |
| Budget subwoofer needed Hi BobYes, they are all flat faced foam filled drivers, with foam covers to make what appears to be a coneless and flat looking driver in all but their tweets. PT was the first to do something special with a soft dome tweet years and years ago. Re... | |
| Projector power cable & conditioner? Audioblazer Thanks much, but it's too large to fit into the opening in the ceiling. I would have to somehow surface mount it and I'd prefer not to clutter up that area more than necessary. | |
| Budget subwoofer needed BobI misspoke. High & low filters are more the apt terms.I really wasn't expecting this now need but last night the little sub that could... seemed it couldn't any longer.My Phase Techs are my sole 'vintage' pieces. I had the large-ish 2 way 8... | |
| Budget subwoofer needed Tgrisham Thanks for the tip... That's the real deal figuring what works with what size room, in the end. I will take a peek.Riley804Thank you very much. The HSU & SVS were/are in my head to look at .... but they both make so many units I've no... | |
| Shall I add a preamp to my setup? Nope... I meant the VK5i.... NOT 51SE.the 51SE is going to be very similar to the sound you presently have, albeit a bit richer. A friend of mine has one and he loves it, though he also has a 5i, and they are worlds apart sonically. The 5i having ... | |
| Shall I add a preamp to my setup? With a $6K budget in hand and desiring 'new', I'd look at the middle of a makers line up... if used, higher up.However, do be mindful of the 'point of diminishing returns'. you may well be in any case, yet it does apply across the board usually an... | |
