| Balanced vs standard power The cost of the jensens and the fact that they will impact the sound doesn't make that an attractive long-term solution. I guess I'll just byte the bullet and send these off to get fixed the right the way. Can't blame a guy for trying to find an e... | |
| Balanced vs standard power Thanks for the help, guys. Jea48, even if I did that it can't be maintained with a three prong connector. Yeah, the best solution would be to pack them off and have them rewired to play together. I hate shipping them as one already has chassis dam... | |
| Balanced vs standard power Thanks for your interpretation. I believe I have the "extremely rare" occurrence mentioned in the Jensen paper. :-) I realize this probably won't eliminate all of the hum, but cutting it in half might make it liveable. I'd like to put each of thes... | |
| Balanced vs standard power Yes, all unbalanced. I put the two tube amps on cheaters. When they are both off I see about 2.5 vac and that drops to about 1.3 vac when both are switched on. That seems to go along with your theory, Al. I have also been referencing this paper fr... | |
| Balanced vs standard power I took some measurements from each amp using the ground tab on a cheater plug with nothing turned on, just plugged in. I'm seeing 16 vac on the ground tab from one tube amp and 14 vac on the ground tab with the other tube amp. The SS amp shows no ... | |
| Balanced vs standard power Jea48, I run them from the same wall outlet. So I have 2, really three with the SS bass amp, grounded devices on the same circuit. It is the best case, but I still get potential between any two of the amps. Individually, they are dead silent. I do... | |
| Balanced vs standard power I think I get it, but see what you guys think about this. My two amps hum because they reference ground at a slightly different potential, and that creates a small current between them when they are on the same circuit. The balanced connections as... | |
| Balanced vs standard power I'm interested in balanced power, and I have a question I hope you guys might now. I have two amps that I like to run together, but the hum like crazy when both are plugged. I know the issue is because one, or both, are not wired in common mode. I... | |
| Ever tried putting a cap inline with RCA for XOVER Yep, you can do this, but what will you do about the resulting phase shift? | |
| Kuzma 4Point Tri-Planar That's crap. Wood has been studied up the wazoo for centuries and there are accepted standards and coefficients right down to various sub-species. | |
| Kuzma 4Point Tri-Planar Lewm, one bolt is plenty. The surface contact area between the brass mount plate and the "headshell" is about 1 x 1/2". If there were vibrations not allowed out of the cartridge, or not drained away through the arm and base, you would have heard t... | |
| Kuzma 4Point Tri-Planar You guys are going to have to do better than "they make musical instruments out of wood". Well, yes. And they DON'T make bells out of wood, for very obvious reasons. Any body can show this. What is going to hold a standing wave longer? Wood or met... | |
| Kuzma 4Point Tri-Planar I'm proud to be on Romy's shit list and call him the complete asshole he is every chance I get. | |
| What is the best storage for cartridges? Not really. :-) | |
| What is the best storage for cartridges? LOL! We have a saying in the U.S., down south. "Well, bless your heart!" :-) |
