| Wiring 2 outlets to 2 dedicated 20 amp circuits with a single 10/3 electrical wire. @jea48 Wrote: I personally would not use a multiwire branch circuit to feed my audio equipment though. YMMV. I agree 100%. 😎 | |
| Klipsch La Scala replacement? @ddd1 Wrote: Auditioning a speaker based on a YT video created under less than optimal conditions and played back on a different system with an altogether different set of strengths and weaknesses means absolutely nothing. I agree! | |
| Pure Class-A Amp under $2000 (USED) +3 Schiit Aegir, I have one it drives my speakers with finesse in stereo mode. 😎 Mike | |
| life span/failure rate of filter capacitors? @immatthewj, @jasonbourne52 Wrote: Electrolytic cap lifespan is unpredictable! My Sumo Andromeda is still going strong while my BEL 1001 and GAS Son need new caps. I agree! I bought my Luxman B-12 mono block amps new in 1977, the two main fil... | |
| The revolution has begun! @kuribo Wrote: more hyperbole, more tweak scams. Boring. I agree! +2 Mike | |

| Dedicated Line - Things to consider @immatthewj Wrote: I don’t know this to be an audio-fact, I am only surmising, but I suspect that it is possible that the effects of RF might not always be a detectable/audible hum or buzz. I think it might also produce a grain that you wouldn’t... | |
| Dedicated Line - Things to consider @whart +1 Great information! Mike | |
| Dedicated Line - Things to consider @audphile1, For dedicated audio lines I would go with Type MC Galvanized Steel Metal Clad Cable 10 AWG. It has better EMI shielding versus aluminum armor. Also, If your run is 60 feet 10 AWG is fine, no need for a sub panel. FWIW, I have four ded... | |
| Too much power? @dain, At 70dB SPL your speakers are not getting 1 watt or 2 watts or 10 watts, in fact they are not even getting 1/2 watt. At 70dB SPL your speakers are getting milliwatts from the amp. In my experience driving low efficiency speakers with milli... | |
| Where does "MidFi" differ from "HiFi" or "LOFI"? @jasonbourne52 +2 | |
| Sharing ground wire between two dedicated circuits @fuzztone Wrote: I would never waste any money on Romex. Nothing wrong with Non Metallic cable AKA Romex, in my opinion, steel armored Metal Clad cable, with steel receptacle boxes is better for dedicated audio circuits. Example: better shie... | |
| Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll @avanti1960 Wrote: The minimal amount of heat from a class A amp is equal to 4 x 100 watt light bulbs approx. no big deal and since I love the sound I see no reason to ditch the amp becauseof heat, unless one wants a new toy for the sake of a ne... | |
| Bi amp configuration...a mismatch? @highend64 Wrote: holmz, thanks for your response. I really enjoying the sound of the Vandersteen but thought I would take it to another level if I went to a bi amp configuration. In my opinion, bi-amping should not be undertaken without first... | |
| Bi amp configuration...a mismatch? Are you passively bi-amping or actively bi-amping? Mike |
