| Strange Oscillation falconquest,all good suggestions by other A'gon members. Here's another thing to try - use a black Sharpie to paint the outer rim of the CD (similar concept to using a Stoplight pen). I've done this to some of my favourite music CDs. Since the bla... | |
| ???Why The HUGE Discrepancy in Sensitivity Ratings??? freediver,i'm looking at the M-L 35XT speaker manual & on the last page, the specs read:Sensitivity = 92dB @ 2.83V / meter.You can find the manual here:http://www.martinlogan.com/pdf/manuals/manual_motion_35xt.pdf The speaker is clearly noted ... | |
| What to do? yeah, I agree b_limo - you’ve been thru 4 units with exactly the same issue. Time to get the refund & move on. I recommend the NAD 356 DAC + integrated amp:http://nadelectronics.com/products/hifi-amplifiers/C-356BEE-DAC-Stereo-Integrated-Ampli... | |
| Which integrated amp would you pick? krelldog - what speakers is the integrated going to drive? what is the source?can't choose an integrated amp in a vaccuum..... | |
| Thoughts on my current system I am in the process of moving in the next couple of months and might be making some changes to my current system. agree with zavato - why are you making changes to your system after your move? | |

| Upsampling - but seriously folks no problem phil9624. :-)but actually downsampled some 192/24 FLAC Neil Young albums from PONO to 96/24 WAV and think it sounds better, also smaller file. Go figure! Best, Philit's not entirely surprising. As you know, the fold-over frequency for 1... | |
| Upsampling - but seriously folks phil9624,maybe one day your moniker will be phil9632 when you switch over to 32-b upsampling? Just kidding.... ;-)i don’t think anyone's going to laugh at you for * using a stop-light pen* or for thinking that cables make a big differencemany of u... | |
| Internal Power Supply Technology Changes since 1999? Thanks for your feedback ptss. I don't think i overlooked the built for precision DC output but I agree your original wording gave me the incorrect impression about the DMC20 overall design.i've heard the previous iteration of your preamp DMC10 -... | |
| Internal Power Supply Technology Changes since 1999? This fact proves to me the preamp itself is "vastly" superior to it's power supply.When I spoke to Spectral about my experience with my refined AC supply they commented that the unit was designed exquisitely for precision DC output but was not... | |
| can you alter the gain of an amplifier? Whoops! Almarg is right, I was wrong. :) It's been a while since I had to do transformer math, but you got the idea. :)Best,Erik yup! everything changes (up or down) by the square of the turns ratio.... | |
| Audio Research Factory Tour bdp24,yeah, I agree. That personal touch that was present during Bill Johnson’s tenure is now gone forever with his passing. ARC now belongs to a conglomerate that has its eyes set on the bottom line (pretty much like Harman International & ot... | |
| Internal Power Supply Technology Changes since 1999? I use an older very high end preamp with a separate power supply that is the same size as the preamp itself. .The same manufacturer now makes better preamps,without the external power supply, that are about the same size as my preamp. What have be... | |
| can you alter the gain of an amplifier? I agree with Almarg.Now, I do have a Crown amp that does have a 3-position switch that can change the gain of the amp to 3 different settings - 0.7V for max output power (which has gain=32dB), 1.4V for max output power (which has gain=34dB) & ... | |
