| Speaker balance control Broadstone,It's not necessarily the quality of the in-line attenuator, it's the fact that it is a set db level w/no control. The chance that your hearing loss matches precisely with the standard db levels (1, 2, 3, 6, etc.) would be a near miracle... | |
| Speaker balance control Take it from someone who has lived with your exact problem for 10 years and who has tried EVERYTHING and nearly driven myself mad in the process. There is no better solution than a variable balance control or a preamp with independent variable (no... | |
| Speakers with good timing Lohanimal,A well-designed ported speaker can have awesome PRAT. In fact, I have found that well-set up ported speakers "breathe" better, a quality that IMO improves PRAT rather than hampers it. Speakers that combine technologies (i.e. stats on top... | |
| Thiel CS3.6 with issues: take the chance? If you really want to get to the bottom of it, swap all the drive units first. If problem follows, you can eliminate the crossovers. If it's the drivers, you'll have to then compare each one with its counterpart using an SPL meter and a test signa... | |

| 6922 Issues / Recommendations Nicksr,It's funny that you ask because I just ordered a pair of RCA 12AX7As for my Mid-Monos. Mike at QS says that the input tube affects the sound more than the driver, so we will see when the RCAs arrive later this week. I have the very newest v... | |
| 6922 Issues / Recommendations Yank that tube and throw it away do not use it in the other channel. Purchase two new 6922s. If same problem, call Mike and he will ask you to send the amp to him for repair. | |
| sound proof floor - practical examples? Yep. Same here. I have my stands on spikes and on painted black concrete slabs (14X14). Works very well. | |
| Great Saxophone Artists and Albums I gotta say ditto for Branford. He is a giant in terms of tone and control. He has ULTIMATE control, especially in very soft passages. I don't like all of his stuff, but damn, he is good and can play any and everything. | |
| The sound of my new electrical service: Day 1 Wow, I would be crying (really) if this happened to my system. Get your old AC back! | |
