Problems with Ayre's Company??? Chetiar, when you begin a post with "problems with Ayre's company" in the subject line, what point are you trying to get across? If all somebody does is read the header w/o the content, they can come away from a quick visit to this site with the s... | |
Problems with Ayre's Company??? I've dealt with Ayre for several yrs as a consumer & have had three of their products. Their factory support is some of the best in the industry & I see no signs of that changing, especially since I just visited while picking up my amp aft... | |
Power cords, most effective placement: As for breaking in the cord, I would suggest one of those IEC to AC adapters, using it on a box fan/heater/lamp-whatever you can use it on that has a steady current draw.As for positioning, you're prob. going to get the best results with the trans... | |
Do you protect your hearing? I've been using the disposable EAR plugs (29 dB) for years & have passed down the tradition to my children.My kids use them when mowing, as well as safety glasses & I use the plugs while using power tools, shop vac, etc.When I first starte... | |
Vibration Isolation............ where to start? A friend of mine did a shoot out of sorts & you can read about it hereLike others have mentioned, the source is usually the best place to start but just assessing the room & placement of all your components should be the first step. | |
soldering iron If I may add to the fine suggestions already made.I have two soldering stations, one being the Hakko 936 and the other a Tenma. They both work great & I use the Tenma more because I keep a smaller tip on it, as compared to a chisel tip on the ... | |
Please help with best PC placement Only you can determine which is best.Try them on your spkrs. for ~10 to 30 days then go back to what you were using, then try them on the DAC/transport for ~10 to 30 days.You'll know when you're done experimenting what to do.Oh, I also recommend y... | |
New Amplifier: Bryston 4B ST or Pass Aleph 5 I had both of the amps you mention & want to throw out the Ayre V-3 to you as an alternative.To me the 4BST was too analytical & the Aleph 5 was too warm. I used a Pass Aleph P pre with all three of the above amps & only sold it to get... | |
You might be an audiophile if... You can hear the difference between the UPS, FedEx & postal truck as they're coming down your street and if they pass your house (after you've jumped up like a kid for the ice cream truck) you get bummed out, 'cause it's another day before you... | |
Man, am i losing my hearing? Yeah, I have that problem too, as everybody in my family mumbles then says I'm going deaf. They say that just because I do some pro sound stuff but I can tell the difference if the singer sounds muddy & I need to boost 2.5k or 4k. Actually onl... | |
Help: my neighbor is killing my music.... I'd like to add to what I wrote earlier this a.m. Although having a talk w/this fellow seems like it could possibly work out, if it doesn't & there's subsequent enforcement, guess who he's going to remember as having a problem w/his truck? Unf... | |
Help: my neighbor is killing my music.... My first suggestion would be to contact the local county (or city or ?) authorities & register a complaint. Not only is idling illegal, but in most jurisdictions you can't even have a commercial vehicle in a residential neighborhood, although ... | |
Is ebay feedback worth anything on Audiogon? There are a few things anybody can do to make a transaction flow.I've always relied on the phone call & serial # for my biggest clues. Way too many examples to mention but if you're trying to make a deal with a DEALER (let alone an individual)... | |
RCA to XLR adapters… Even after you go fully balanced, you can always keep a set of RCA>XLR cables around for those times when you have a source w/only RCA's. I use a set for my tuner.Since you're using a CDP, I suggest wiring as follows: Pin 1 (ground) to the shel... | |
Do people find the rating system useful? Somewhat, as it depends on the seller's reputation & ability to grade with objectivity.I have found a lot of seller's rate their stuff one grade too high & occasionally it's an outright lie.Pictures do tell the story & in fact I recent... |
