| Better CDP or network player? I have been wondering about doing this as well. I have an older onkyo player that does sacd and has always sounded great to me but it's about 8 years old. I have been looking at the Cocktail Audio x45. You can rip cd's and it has a phono stage so... | |
| Am I hearing things? There should be white/neutral , black/ hot, bare copper/ ground. The ground might not be connected to the receptacle if there are more receptacles on the run he might have twisted them together and crammed them in the back of the box. He should h... | |
| BUYERS, What Issues have you had with Sellers and Listings that Prevent you from Buying? In my case I wanted a new integrated amp, I just bought one less than 1 year old for about 60% of it's cost new. To me that was good deal for the seller ? | |
| BUYERS, What Issues have you had with Sellers and Listings that Prevent you from Buying? For example when car sales are slow the auto industry offers rebates, zero interest financing, free maintence for 3 years etc.. I am affraid in used audio equipment about the only thing you can do is keep dropping prices or hold on until a shift i... | |
| BUYERS, What Issues have you had with Sellers and Listings that Prevent you from Buying? I think it's simply basic economics, supply and demand where the demand isn't there at the moment and the main thing that drives demand in most markets is either a shortage of supply or a reduction in prices. In other words there isn't enough of a... | |
| Am I hearing things? He probably put the 25 amp breaker on your AC unit which is not unusual that's about the only thing 25 breakers are used for AC units or water heaters. | |
| Am I hearing things? #10 is used for 30amp breakers and the receptacles for those are 240 not your standard 120 and are made to accomodate #10 wire. Some components are 240 so in that case they would run 10/2 or 10/3. | |
| Am I hearing things? Craig most 20 amp breakers are run with 12/2 or 12/3 it's hard enough to wire a receptacle with 12 doing it with 10 is a real pain. My guess is unless you're standing there watching the electrician and you had him run 10 he pigtailed some 12 in t... | |
| New to this. How do I stack my stuff? Looks nice, have you thought about making 4 more feet and putting the pre amp beside the amp unless that little green chair can't be moved. | |
| Do HDMI Cables make a Difference? That should be Dolby HDR, not to good typing on a tablet. | |
| Do HDMI Cables make a Difference? Depends on what you're using just get a belkin ultra high speed, it suports Dolby vision HRD and bandwidth up to 48 gbs so it work with whatever TV and source you're using plus it's only about $30. | |
| New to this. How do I stack my stuff? Sold all my old wood working tools on letgo before I downsized to a condo less than half the sq ft of my house. Suppose that's why it's called downsizing. | |
| New to this. How do I stack my stuff? I guess I am not quite understanding what you're trying to do. I use an audio rack I bought about 20 years ago, heavy metal frame with heavy wood shelving that would hold a tank. I simply place my components on the shelves using the "feet" of the ... | |
| New to this. How do I stack my stuff? Couldn't you put the 3x3 feet you're planning on putting under the amp under the marble slab instead and put the amp on that? | |
| Store auditioning and then buying on-line from others. How do you feel about it ? I have never auditioned at a store then bought online but where I live unless you want an Anthem, Integra or similar items mainly used in Home Theaters there is nothing to really audition anymore though some will special order certain items. |
