| Power conditioner some say yes and some say no. @charles1dad - I was using the Torus RM15+ for quite a few years and before that had the original Running Springs Audio Haley. Both were very good, but do not provide balanced isolation. I have 4 dedicated lines for my system, the BPT is plugged i... | |
| Power conditioner some say yes and some say no. I worked for Roger Modjeski for several years. He was always of the opinion that if you designed the power supply of a component properly then additional power conditioning would not be needed. In his system he used an inexpensive power strip, mai... | |
| Pass / Korg B1 As for the Korg B1 I got tube microphonics from just turning the volume control and this was the tube that came with the kit. The other two I bought from Pete Millet and they were much better but still not up to my standards. | |
| Pass / Korg B1 I built the Korg. If you really like microphonics this is for you. Tried 3 different Korg tubes and they were all noisy. Put it on a shelf and moved on. It's not a tough build though and the instructions are very clear like the other DIYAudio proj... | |

| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? @georgehifi, after fudging around with it some more the wiring was not the issue, the amp was. I pulled one off the shelf that I thought was good but is actually in need of repair. Pulled another one out and all is well.Great news about the Lights... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? @georgehifi, on a pot the middle tab is the wiper or output if I understand correctly and if I understand you correctly this is positive. Based on the physical layout the positives of each switch are connected with a red wire and then there is a r... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? @georgehifi, As I review the schematics and look at the actual pots in the Lightspeed I'm wanting to confirm that the middle tab on the pot is the ground and the other two tabs are for the input and output. I ask because the Noble stepped attenuat... | |
| THE IRS HAS TAKEN MY TRANSACTIONS VIA PAYPAL AND IDENTIFIED THEM AS TAXABLE INCOME What I'm still curious about is how the IRS found out about the transactions. | |
