Maggie owners opinions wanted
Hi all ! He was probably not aware at the time it would damage his amp . But hey , it was a very useful anyway ! Secretguy ... I sent my 1.6qr's back for rebuild in 2010 . It was about $740 and they rebuilt everything . Will it be worth it , your ... 
Please help me understand
Hi all ! I agree with everyone above except the 1st response . The way an amp is made (talking about the chassis and covers ) has alot to do with the way they sound also . Think a big , heavy amp does bass so well because of the sheer output power... 
Thiel 1.5 vs. 1.6, any experience?
Hi all ! Have you considered the new 1.7 ? 
Is there any truth to this question?
Hi all ! This is my experience....two amplifiers from the same company , one a 50wpc amp ...and the other a 250 wpc amp . The smaller amp (operating below clipping) always sounds better than the 250wpc amp . Why ? The larger amp is more complex wi... 
What can cause noise with my Wadia 381? HELP
Hi all ! So , the unit had noise problems when it was new and you still sent it to be modified ? I dont think I would blame Wadia or the guy who modified it . Too late in the game . Should have sent it back in the first place . Sorry not helping b...

Ungrounded power cord: Will I die?
Hi all ! I have been hit by 120 , 240 and 480v . None of them feel good . Some chillers are 4160 volts , never been hit by that , thank god . The reason I have been hit so much (aside from being dumb) is I have worked in airconditioning for 37 yea... 
Subwoofers location
Hi all ! Testing has shown the best location for a single sub to be in a corner . Strongest and smoothest response . 
Carver equipement good??
Hi all ! The Carver amps are a heck of a lot better than their preamps . The TFM 35 I had sounded pretty good , not great but good for the price . The preamp ( cant remember the model ) was horrible , no dynamics and very veiled . Didnt really not...

Hi all ! Cfluxa ....so you own the Lore's also? 
Ungrounded power cord: Will I die?
Hi all ! The insulation on the wire was burning and causing the smell I thought was bad food . Moral of the story.... dont mess around with any voltage , 120 volts will kill you as easy as 480v . 
Ungrounded power cord: Will I die?
Hi all ! This is a short story about how I almost died from my refrigerator . I noticed my freezer smelled like bad food . So I went through all the questionable food (lots of it as I am single) and threw it out , wiped out the fridge and freezer ... 
I've narrowed it down...
Hi all ! I think I did it backwards too . I decided on a 4wpc otl tube amp then ordered the speakers . Perfect match ! In reality it can work out fine both ways .
