| Any Audio Enthusiasts in Alabama? I'm a bit late for this thread....here in Athens AL. Would love to be part of an audiophile club! | |

| RCA Splitters First of all, I was just wondering, how do you connect the turntable to the equalizer input? (Normally you would have to run a turntable output directlly to a phono specific input.) Anyway, to play it safe, if you use the splitters, you probably w... | |
| I want to hear what you have to say bout my HT The only thing that jumps out as being a possible problem is that two of your room dimensions are almost the same. You could have have a bass resonance around 70 - 75 Hz.?.? Sounds like a very nice system. | |
| What age did the "audio bug" hit you? When I was 7, I bought Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. That started the album collection. I bought my first decent stereo system when I was 16 or 17. Then, I stepped into high end audio when I was about 23 or 24. | |
| Can I bi-wire from my sub woofer? First of all, if the sub-woofer is powered, you should probably run RCA cables from the preamp directly to the sub-woofer. I think you should get better performance out of the sub if you connect that way. Then, run the amplifier directly to the sp... | |
| Biamping from a 5 channel amp? The difference in power output between the front and rear channels is already an issue. We've seen to that.The speakers were designed to give you a nice balanced frequency response. Having a different power level to the tweeters/midrange than to t... | |
| Biamping from a 5 channel amp? I wouldn't bi-amp with two different power levels. You would have 50 W going to the woofers (or tweeters) and 30 W going to the tweeters (or woofers.) I guess you could balance that out with the gain settings but that also assumes that you can do ... | |
| Can I run a CD player & phono w/no preamp Unless there is a switch on the amplifier that lets you select which input to use, I don't think it would be a good idea to hook up to both inputs at the same time. Depending on the amplifier input circuit, you may be connecting your CD player and... | |
| PreAmp Math Sounds like Warnerwh has a good rule of thumb. The other day, I was looking at input and output impedance ratings for CD players/preamps/amps. This is an example of one company's top of the line CD player, preamp, and amplifier ratings. (All ratin... | |
| Feedback from opening CD door; HELP Especially if it is faint, I would say that there is nothing to worry about. The speakers are simply responding to the signal they are receiving just like they do when they reproduce your favorite song. If it was a longer signal with a DC componen... | |
| amp fuse You will want to make sure the VOLTAGE and CURRENT values of the replacement fuse are the same as on the original fuse. Any brand fuse should do as long as it is the same physical size and has the same ratings. Some fuses are slow blow, etc. They ... | |
| why does preamp improve sound quality? It probably has to do with matching the output impedance of the source with the input impedance of the amplifier. If you have all of the manuals, find the specifications for:Mark Levinson no. 390s "output impedance"Quad preamp "input impedance"Qua... | |
| In-Line Encoding Vinyl to MP3 Could the output level have been too high. Or, did you have the input level too high on your IAudio U2 (if it has one)? No other explanations really jump out at me. You could check the spec sheets on the output level of his amp and the input level... | |
| Subwoofer for under $1000-new, used, or DIY I recently had a Definitive Technology SuperCube I in my room for a couple of months. I was using it with my Thiel CS2.3s. It really made the system sound alot better. It has a 10" woofer with two 10" passives and 1500 Watts for $999 (retail $1199... |
