| The fallacy of ac treatment Keep reading white papers and you will figure it out eventually. But whatever you do, don't contaminate the data by actually listening. Also include "the basic table of elements," theories of super conductivity and the effects of electromagnetic f... | |
| Crown Amplifier for Advent 300 The utility cabinets sounded better when stacked and the Walnut better when used as a pair. The Shag used in these listening tests was multiple hues of green. My ex-brother-in-law still has the AMT-1's but I sold all of the Advents years ago. | |
| Burn-in time Vs. Getting used to a sound I feel that it is a combination of both. I can beyond any doubt in my mind hear the effect of break in. But when I switched to silver interconnects for the first time there was more involved in my acceptance of the new sound other than cooking the... | |
| Crown Amplifier for Advent 300 Whatjd: I wonder if the Advents would sound better today without "shag" carpeting? Or do you think that they would have too much bass? | |
| Crown Amplifier for Advent 300 I thought that the whole idea was "classic/vintage audio" which modern amps are not - yet. I am also under the impression that this is to remain a budget system. Are you interested in modern and pricy gear for this project or will it remain a clas... | |
| POWER: conditioners vs filters vs cords Timchen: I picked it up at Globe-mart.com. CLICK Audio/Vidio - CLICK Home Theater - CLICK Surge Suppressors - CLICK Monster - CLICK 12 outlet model @ $124.95. I'm not trying to be funny, it is really buried in there. Fast delivery too, it showed u... | |
| POWER: conditioners vs filters vs cords Ljgj: What is a "spike"? | |
| Crown Amplifier for Advent 300 Hi Classic: It's me again pushing the Phase Linear 400, it is not transistor sounding as suggested at the other site. It gained a bad reputation because a lot of people used it for PA's in the 70's and 80's and still do today. If you can listen to... | |
| POWER: conditioners vs filters vs cords I use a Monster HTS2000 ($125.00 mail-order) and a Harmonic Tech. Pro 11 PC ($130.00 used) with very good results. I plug everything into the Monster though you would want to try your "amp" both straight into the wall as well as into the Monster. ... | |
| Best speakers for looks & sound < 1000 I was thinking along the same lines as what Blkadr has to say. There may be something wrong with your amplification. I have never blown a cone LF driver and have used both the Phase Linear 400 and Hafler 500 amps and made spaced out errors with th... | |
| Where can I find a Wallytractor? Grand: You are welcome. If you don't want to give up search Ebay and continue to do so. Everything shows up there eventually. | |
| Where can I find a Wallytractor? Check with Wally's brother, his name is Wally too. Or better yet go to Audioasylum.com and search the Vinyl Forum under Wallytracter. If the email addresses of the posters are still current, they may be able to help you locate one. | |
| Simple Question. Simple Answer? Thanks for the info Lakiraly and Trelja: Now I understand your old post on gage/feet Trelja, before it was over my head. For around $10.00 (if I can purchase this minimum amount) I will have to try it. I am still fascinated by little inexpensive t... | |
| Audio & the Emperor’s new clothes. Hi Classic: Tom really got to you with that dammed Dynaco Stereo 70 (you know, the one that "blows" every modern amp away) didn't he? I checked back and he has been working that amp so hard that he has probably needed to change the tubes twenty ti... | |
| Simple Question. Simple Answer? SF: I basicaly just did a doughnut today and ended up where I started. I screwed up the end of one of my cables and decided to make a jumper out of the the same cable instead of stripping another 3" off the end and threading it throught the LF pos... |
