| Is it possible to shield unshielded speakers? Ozfly: I think the trick is to ground the aluminum/copper foil.When a magnetic field passes thru copper, electrical current is produced.Give the current somewhere to go (ground) and the field is no longer a problem. | |
| Is it possible to shield unshielded speakers? Joshl: The speaker magnets won't damage your T.V. The T.V. picture will be distorted if it's too close to a magnetic field. | |
| Is it possible to shield unshielded speakers? I'd just move the center channel a foot-or-so away from the TV. This should do it. | |
| What speakers for BAT VK-75, 75SE or ARC VT-100s The Audio Artistry Dvorak mates well with the ARC and is certainly full range (subs require another amp, however).These can be had for a song (around $2000) and excel with full tilt symphonic works.They use dual eight-inch midrange drivers which, ... | |
| The obsession, the trees. The music, the forest. A pro musician (jazz) was interviewed in Stereophile. When asked why he had such a crappy stereo system, he replied something like: "Maybe a musician can put it all together in their head so they don't need good equipment.".Maybe gear heads can't ... | |
| Thiel 1.6 vs 2.3 vs 3.6 No offense but get rid of that preamp immediately!I owned the 565 around 1990 and switching to a Classe 6 was like removing earmuffs! Your amp is probably O.K. but pick up a used Audio Research SP-9 or LS-9.Try it -You'll like it! | |

| Step-up from Plinius SA-102? Consider a pair of bridged BEL 1001's.These amps are tough to acquire but have a cult following.I've heard the Plinius 102's transform to another level when bridged. Why not try this approach first? | |
| Any way a preamp can drive small speakers? Thanks for all responses!I know this query is kind of off-the-wall but thought it would be interesting.If you've ever seen the guts of a BAT 50SE preamp, you'll know why driving tiny speakers shouldn't be unreasonable. | |
| 300B Tubes - Which is Best? ED_SAWYER: You are right. The following taken from Stereophile Archives:"The following circuit description is based on information provided by Dennis Had. The input signal is DC-coupled to the grid of a 6SL7 dual-triode operated in parallel as a s... | |
| Is it possible to use the amp section of a int amp Right, just make sure the Acurus volume control is turned all the way up. Then use the volume control on your other preamp to adjust sound level. | |
| 300B Tubes - Which is Best? O.K. What does that mean? | |

UncleJeff: Did you audition any Harbeth's prior to KEF purchase?These both use polypropylene woofers.I heard Harbeth's at CES and thought they were great.Was wondering if poly is the way to go.Also wondering how KEF tweeter competes with the excel... | |
