| Risk using amp Wattage than speaker rating? That just sounds like a poorly engineered driver. That thing would tear itself apart eventually even at moderate levels. The main concern in over driving a speaker is exceeding it's X-Max rating. | |
| Accuphase P-300, worth upgrading? The only way you will change the sound of your amp in rebuilding is by improving it. Especially an amp as old as yours. Components have come a long way since 40 years ago. The only limiting factor is the competence of the one doing the work. This ... | |
| why performance increase after pause? I guess my humor's a little on the dry side. I find Elizabeth to be very knowledgeable and to the point. So I just assume she takes comments like mine light-heartedly. | |
| why performance increase after pause? Oh, so you've had us fooled until now? Nothing like representing yourself honestly eh, Elizabeth? I wonder, can your Bryston handle the truth? Davehrab, sure, I don't really care that much about it. I was just curious if anyone else noticed the sa... | |

| why performance increase after pause? I suspect it is the crossover. They suck up a lot of power which gets converted into heat which can be sizzlingly hot. Could be the particular speakers I'm using are more prone to this? I'm using a pair of Mission V63s with a pair of Velodyne subs... | |

She stopped in her tracks and just gazed in astonishment. Before that she could never understand what i... | |

| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Marakanetz, the first sentence was for you, the second for Rpeluso. Sorry for the confusion. However, I'm with you! | |
| why performance increase after pause? Well, not quite. BTW, you capitalized a second letter there, Mapman. But seriously, I do notice a more dynamic sound in the first cut after pausing when the gear is at idle for maybe 5 min or so. Shorter or longer periods don't seem to make a diff... | |
| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Oh, so it is just a visual thing with you tube guys. I thought so. | |
| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Awe, come on Markanetz. I have no Sinatra. I truly don't think he's worthy. Way over blown. However my music is across the board. Last couple of times, it was Stevie Ray Von's Tin Pan Alley and Donovan's Mellow Yellow. |
