| Recommendations for modern integrated with tone & balance controls other than Mcintosh arafiq491 posts02-16-2021 10:38pm..... I’m using the ‘loudness’ control since everyone else is asleep. Then you should be using the ’quietness’ control, silly wabbit. Another vote for the Luxman L-590AX. | |
| Are your current amps and other gear the best you've ever had? For me, yes. | |
| Dedicated power clearthink1,179 posts02-10-2021 8:48amYou are very welcome and might choose to consider that floods are also an ongoing issue across much of the globe including Europe and Scandinavia and yet power outages lasting for weeks on end as a result... | |
| Dedicated power Very unreliable electric service? Thank you very much for this information, which I find "suspect". Good grief. Flooding has caused a lot of problems, depending on the severity. The solution, of course, would be to not allow anyone to live near an... | |

| Luxman 171A turntable He doesn't have a Luxman integrated. His TT is plugged into a McIntosh C2600 Pre-amp, which has inputs for MM or MC cartridges. | |
| Has anybody bought or heard a Chinese knock off amplifier? Probably, if they're on the internet. | |
| Dedicated power I believe a sub-panel is required to have it's own grounding rod. One of the more knowledgeable guys will be along, hopefully, to confirm or not. | |
| Dedicated power It can't be additional, unless it's physically tied to the existing grounding rod(s). | |
| Luxman 171A turntable Do you have it plugged into the the correct connections? If the Mac has a phono section, it will be marked, you can’t just plug it in anywhere. You can google the Mac's owners manual, if you don't have it. From the illustration of the back panel, ... | |
| Dedicated power jea48, so you're essentially talking about wiring the circuit as 20A (breaker, outlet), but upsizing the wire to #10? I'm just trying to learn a bit.Thanks | |
| Has anybody bought or heard a Chinese knock off amplifier? cid194532 posts02-05-2021 4:46pmI’ve never heard of well known brands like Luxman or Accuphase knockoffs. Seems they would be easy to spot or the price would be the tipoff. The Chinese are making some excellent amps at very good prices. Their... | |
