| Amp repair cost — is this right? Hello jnehma1. You might inquire about what kind of replacement parts they are planning to use. Delund capacitors can run hundreds of dollars each. Nice Mundorfs easily run $15-50 each. Don't settle for anything less than Mundorfs. Still, the lab... | |
| Combining 2 channel audio and home theatre By all means do it! Most receivers have much better "front ends" than the power amp sections. It's a good place to start. As long as you have "Preamp Outputs" you can add multi channel power amps or multiple single or stereo amps (maybe just a ste... | |
| Baby Proof Floorstanding Speakers You could try suspending the speakers from the ceiling. Hang them horizontally? Use really good bookshelf speakers in macrame slings? Experienced Dad talking here. Five systems in the house. Don't take chances with the kids. I have watched three y... | |
| Can anyone recommend an FM Receiver that would play into a relatively high end system? Hello cdc77. Not all receivers are "crap." They sell pretty well. Any upper end Integra (Onkyo's premium brand) receiver will do well and have that "hi-def" or whatever FM capability. We have one station in the LA area that has remarkable - CD qua... | |
| Speakers Nominal Power handling/Amplifier Hi Scott22! Will low power damage your speakers? You do turn the system off at some point in the day, right? Everybody needs to sleep sometimes. Do you worry if your speakers are safe while the system is off? Of course, not! Low power is only a ... | |
| Did any Amp help you understand lyrics better? I'm now using the Purifi Audio (from Denmark) EVAL1 (two power amp modules and a front end) with an outboard power supply. [Two NAD units now use their power amp modules. So does an outfit called LKV (Veros PWR+ power amp).] Outstanding clarity an... | |

| VTV Purifi amp models Hi tellefsen! I have two of Purifi Audio''s EVAL1 packages. They do not have power supplies (but you can build one for about $150), nor do they have chassis and enclosures. If you're handy, that's no problem. I can help you with those things if y... | |
| Hegel H390 or NAD M33 for Bowers and Wilkins 802D2 speakers? I recently got hold of the Purifi Audio (from Denmarl) EVAL1. It uses the same output modules that it sells to NAD for use in the M33. Simply put, it's the best amp I've ever encountered. It's getting fabulous reviews. So on that basis, i recommen... | |
| Length of speaker cables Hi Steve 0713. In general, speaker cables are more critical than interconnects. So, if you can, put the monoblocks very close to the speakers and use long interconnects to feed signal to them. You can easily make good interconnects using Belden m... | |

| Who puts their speakers right up against the back wall and why? Who puts speakers against a wall? People who live in real houses and live real lives! Three cheers for Larsen. Have you heard them? They are designed to put out a quarter hemisphere of sound. I heard them first at CES a few years ago. Walking by t... | |
| Concrete Audio Speakers...Speaker Enclosures made out of Concrete ?.. Hello highend666. Granite/Quartz countertops are frequently broken during transportation and installation. Broken bits can be had for very low prices and the shops that have them will cut them for you. I have made seven cabinets out of broken cou... | |
| What have you been working on in 2020? Hi Erik! Mundorf MKP capacitors replacing the rectangular pink caps on the Parts Express YuanJing 2 x 68w LM3886 and NE5532 board makes a big difference. Better yet, run you audio into the second cap and skip the NE5532 stage completely. DIY for... |
