Does and don't Install a whole house surge protector, and at least two new 20 amp dedicated circuits for your equipment. Maybe $1,000 or less, to get you to better load capacity first, before buying other expensive equipment. I just got done installing 4 dedic... | |
Bad idea? How about $30 for two lengths of 10 AWG speaker wire, oxygen free pure copper, 413 strands per conductor, 30 feet long, each. I’ll throw in 8 banana plugs that take #10 gauge wire. Plus actual shipping. Message me if interested. I’ve used this... | |
Im going to regret my cable question I am up grading my home theater/music system, and trying WBC Cables, on reviews I have read. They come in different wire sizes, so I am buying the 7 AWG wire size. I have them in hand, and the quality and build looks to be very good. Can’t wait... | |
Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby? Yup, agree with you completely. I am on my final final up grade, to my home theater/music system. Bought a NITB Mcintosh MX-160, and a used MC 501 amp for the center speaker. Adding front high speakers to the mix. Building a custom cherry she... | |
New split AC System impact on sound. You can have the company move the outside condenser further away from your window. Just let them know ahead of time so that they can buy the correct length line set. The line sets come in different lengths, and are precharged with the refrigeran... | |
Is anyone here still into live concerts these days? One of THE FEW good shows left is the TSO CHRISTMAS SHOW!! You know it will sound great, have a really good light show, and use 2,000 gallons of PROPANE for the shooting fire guns! LOL! The tickets will still be a reasonable cost, and $1.00 of ... | |
Anyone remember the days before bells and whistles! In the summer of 1967, I bought an Eico build it yourself amplifier kit, similar to the Heathkits being sold. I spent a couple weeks building it, and it didn't sound so good. I was using 12" three way Jensen speakers, with ported cabinets I buil... | |
What is the most FUN pair of speakers you've ever had and why? The most fun speakers were my first ones. I bought a DIY speaker building book. Designed my own ported cabinets, around 12" three way Jensen speakers. Did this fifty years ago when I was sixteen years old. Then I bought an Eico amplifier kit. ... | |
A song murdered by someone. Anybody who tries to cover House of the Rising Sun. Very hard to beat Eric Burden and the Animals version. And, they were one of the first groups to have a top ten record, that played longer than 2 1/2 minutes on the radio format. | |

What’s in your system today that you also had 10 years ago? My 10 gauge speaker wires, and my checkbook. LOL! I just retired and did a total make over of my system. Very happy with the results, should last me a long time. | |
Opening a can of worms I don't think I have ever seen the issue of old (older) age that we all are living, and how that affects what we hear, or think we hesr? I have been in this game for a long time, back to the Sansui and Fisher days. I have had my hearing test done... | |
Subwoofer works on blu-ray but not on TV? Kr4 I bet you are right about the bass management not being set up. I'll have to get the msnusl out and look into this. Thanks a lot. | |
Can the WAF Kill an Audio System? I just retired and decided to upgrade my system. After doing look/listen research, I first took my wife to see the new OLED TVs. That sold her on the new tv, all I had to do was I talk up the better sounds we would get from new speakers. A week... | |
